摘要
We empirically test the monitoring role of director and officer (D&O) insurance coverage by investigating the association between D&O insurance coverage and the information disclosure quality and incidence of corporate fraud for firms listed in Taiwan. The empirical evidence reveals that a firm may raise the quality of information disclosure by purchasing D&O insurance. However, the empirical results do not support the monitoring effect of D&O insurance coverage on corporate fraud.
