| Popis: |
Using a sample of Chinese A-share listed companies during the 2008–2019 period, we explore the impact of concurrent independent directors in the same industry (hereafter CIDSI) on accounting information comparability. We find that CIDSI can effectively promote accounting information comparability and that this effect is realized mainly through inhibiting earnings management. We also find that CIDSI can provide broader industry perception of the company’s board reports. Variations in concurrent companies and internal and external environments have significant moderating effects on the relationship between CIDSI and accounting information comparability. This relationship contributes to reducing audit fees and the possibility of receiving non-standard unqualified audit opinions. Our findings have implications for companies by demonstrating the importance of recruiting independent directors. |
