Article Preview

Abstract:

This essay has chosen 568 companies listed in Shenzhen Stock Exchange (SZSE) as research samples. And it empirically analyzed the independent director system' effectiveness on the corporate performance. The result indicates that the proportion of independent directors is not significantly correlated with corporate performance, and that the independent directors' compensation is significantly positively correlated with the company’s performance and that the meeting attendance of independent directors is not significantly positively correlated with firm’s performance. At last, two proposals are put forward: firstly, broaden the company information's delivery channels to independent directorst; secondly, perfect the incentive and constraint mechanism of independent directors
