Abstract

This paper investigates the effect of governance practice on firm value. The extent of corporate governance practice being influenced by the firm value of the company is assessed. Adopting a descriptive research design, primary data were collected from 650 governance professionals. To identify the factors of corporate governance, the exploratory factor analysis technique is used, and to assess the effect of governance practice on firm value, structural equation modelling is applied. The results of the study conclude that there exist significant effects of governance attributes on firm value.
