Abstract

Abstract Despite various studies on good corporate governance (GCG), many GCG mechanisms do not seem to work effectively in Indonesian companies due to frequent conflicts between majority and minority shareholders. A more independent party needs to be offered to solve this unique agency problem. This study attempts to analyze how independent parties; foreign and domestic institutional ownership, and independent commissioners may provide solution to agency problem. Results of panel data regression show a positive and significant influence of foreign institutional ownership on dividends and stock prices, whereas domestic institutional ownership and independent commissioners do not significantly affect shareholder wealth. The study also proposes a new model to minimize the possibility of agency problems in Indonesian context through the establishment of foreign institutional ownership as an independent party.
