    内容简介:我们研究了通过在41个经济体中分阶段实施董事会改革对会计稳健性的影响。我们的结果显示,在涉及董事会独立性、审计委员会和审计师独立性的改革国家中,会计保守性显著增加。与遵守或解释方法相比,基于规则的方法促进了会计保守性。分析表明,改革对会计保守性的影响在以下情况下更为明显:(1)存在更严重代理问题的公司;(2)投资者保护较弱的国家;以及(3)金融和会计系统较不成熟的国家。改善董事会监督可能是改革效果的机制。总体而言,我们的发现表明,在董事会改革后增强公司治理的公司倾向于提高会计稳健性程度作为监控机制。

    We investigate the impact of corporate governance on accounting conservatism through the staggered implementation of board reforms in 41 economies. Our results reveal a significant increase in accounting conservatism in countries with reforms involving board independence and audit committee and auditor independence. In contrast to a comply-or-explain approach, a rule-based approach promotes accounting conservatism. Additional analyses indicate that the effects of the reform on accounting conservatism are more evident in: (1) firms with more severe agency problems; (2) countries with weak investor protection; and (3) countries with less sophisticated financial and accounting systems. A subsequent investigation confirms that improved board oversight could be the mechanism behind the reform’s effect. Overall, our findings suggest that accounting conservatism serves as a preferred monitoring mechanism for firms that enhance corporate governance following the board reform.
