The Effect of Top Executive Gender on Accrual Earnings Management: Sample Analysis of Vietnamese Listed Firms
The intent of this study is to investigate the top executive gender
effect on earnings
management of companies listed on the stock market. Based on data from
100 companies listed on the Vietnamese stock markets (HNX and HOSE)
listed before 2009 in the period from 2011 to 2014, using quantitative
research methods, we find a correlation between earnings management and
top executive gender (GENDERCHAIR, GENDERCEO, GENDERCFO), the proxy of
firm size and the tenure of the CEO. This paper extends prior research
by addressing the potential effects of female executives on earnings
management. The findings reported in this paper provide novel insights
to the empirical financial accounting literature.
