| 总结: | In Malaysia, Malaysian Securities Commission mandates all companies listed in Bursa
Malaysia to form audit committee. Audit committee is responsible to oversee the
financial reporting process and take note of the financial reporting risk. This study
examines the relationship between finn size and audit committee composition such as
audit committee size, proportion independent director in audit committee, financial
expertise in audit committee, and frequency of meeting by audit committee toward
corporate governance among Sarawak pubJic listed companies. The 28 companies
incorporated in Sarawak listed on Main Market in Bursa Malaysia for year 2006 - 2011
is investigated. The study identifies the corporate governance based on accrual ratio, the
lower the accrual ratio, the higher the corporate governance. The Pearson Correlation Test is used to examine the relationship between dependent and independent variables.
The finding indicates that there are no significant relationships between audit committee
composition and finn size with corporate governance. This study revealed that the
establishment of audit committee in Sarawak listed companies in Malaysia has yet to
achieve success in its monitoring role. |
