The influence of risk management committee characteristics on the performance of non-financial listed firms in Malaysia from the perspective of agency and resource dependency theories

The purpose of this study is to examine the relationship between risk management committee (RMC) characteristics and firm performance measured by (Tobin's q [TOBSQ], return on equity [ROE], return on asset [ROA], and earnings per share [EPS]) of listed firms in Malaysia from the year 2016 to 20...
