The application of good corporate governance (GCG) aims to improve company performance. In implementing GCG, a mechanism is needed, namely a procedure and a clear relationship between the decision-maker and the party overseeing the decision. The mechanism of GCG can be measured by the numbers of board of directors, independent board of commissioners, audit committees, and also managerial ownership. This research is conducted at manufacturing companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange, with a total sample of 52 companies determined by purposive sampling technique. Data are analyzed by using multiple regression analysis with statistical package for the social sciences (SPSS) tools. The findings show that the board of directors and independent commissioners have an influence on company performance, while audit committees and managerial ownership do not affect the company’s performance. The company’s performance is improved by the existence of an independent board of commissioners that provides guidance and direction as well as supervision to the company management. Meanwhile, the audit committee has no influence, because the audit committee is only responsible for assisting the board of commissioners in monitoring the financial reporting process by the management to improve the credibility of financial statements, and managerial ownership does not affect the company’s performance because the number of management shares is quite low, because of which the management cannot influence the decisions taken at the general meeting of shareholders to improve the company’s financial performance. Thus, if the GCG mechanism goes well, then the company’s performance will increase.
