1. Pendahuluan
This study aims to examine the effect of corporate governance and ownership concentration on accounting information resources. In particular, this study examines the effect of the independent commissioners and audit committee as a corporate governance structure and concentration of ownership of the power of accounting information.
Previous studies indicate that concentration of ownership of corporate ownership in East Asia, including Indonesia, were found tended to be concentrated (Claessens et al., 2000 and 2002). Concentration of ownership resulted in conflicts of interest (agency problem) change from conflict management shareholders with a conflict between the majority shareholder with a minority. Controlling or majority shareholder has an incentive to do the expropriation of minority shareholders. Controlling shareholders also have the ability to influence the financial reporting process. Therefore, the majority shareholder of the company with ownership concentration may affect the quality of financial reporting.
