The effectiveness of the board of commissioners and audit committee is measured based on the independency, activity, size, and competence. By using logistic regression with 282 samples from Indonesia Stock Exchange in 2014, the results of this study provide empirical evidence that the effectiveness of the board of commissioners and institutional ownership has no effect on the efficiency of corporate investment, while the effectiveness of audit committees ha s a positive influence in the efficiency of corporate investment.

This study contributes to the literature, in which the previous literature has not linked investment efficiency with specific governance mechanisms that relats to effectiveness of the board of commissioners and audit committees. Furthermore , this study contributes to the examination of moderating role of institutional ownership. This study implies that with regard to investment decisions, the audit committee has a significant role in assisting the board of commissioners in carrying out its monitoring functions.
