Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We review recent literature on the empirical corporate board committees. The results reveal the following three points. First, the committees may alleviate co-ordination problems on the board and enhance corporate performance. Second, granting formal authority to a committee consisting solely of outside directors can impair communication among the board. Third, overlapping membership between compensation and audit committees relies less on earnings-based performance measures in executive compensation contracts.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
本研究は,上場企業において取締役会内部に委員会を設ける企業が増加傾向にあることに注目し,米国企業を対象とした委員会の経済的機能に関する実証的証拠を概観した。日本企業を対象とした委員会に関する実証研究が少ない現状において,米国の実証研究の成果は,近年の日本企業におけるコーポレートガバナンスの変化を理解するうえで有意義な示唆をもたらすだろう。
