摘 要

本文針對我國上市的電子產業公司,探討獨立董事之獨立性、專注性與專業性三大特性,是否對盈餘管理行為具有監督效 果。研究中以2007年至2011年間,我國上市公司電子類族群為樣本,分別剖析獨立董事之獨立性與專業性受到專注性高低 的交互作用下對盈餘管理的影響。本文實證結果發現:(一)獨立董事比率愈高,其對盈餘管理的監督效果亦愈佳,兩者呈現 負向關聯。(二)獨立董事兼任其它公司董事的席次愈高,其對盈餘管理的監督效果會減弱。(三)董事會設置審計委員會,操 縱盈餘管理可能性越低,兩者呈顯著負向關聯。(四)當獨立董事比率偏高時,若獨立董事兼任其它公司董事的席次亦愈高

,則在此交互影響下,其對盈餘管理的監督效果並不明顯。(五)當有設置審計委員會時,若獨立董事忙碌程度亦同時提升

,亦會降低原先審計委員會與盈餘管理間之關聯性。 因此,我國獨立董事的獨立性、專注性與專業性必須同時兼顧,換言 之,過高的兼任席次確實會降低獨立董事的監督效能。再者,本文針對我國現行證交法規考量獨立董事之執行職務品質,

規定公開發行公司獨立董事兼任其他公開發行公司之獨立董事不得逾三家之限制實況,進一步檢測我國獨立董事專注性的 妥適性。研究結果顯示,在證交法規範之下,獨立董事兼任其它公司獨立董事的席次愈高(3家為限),其對盈餘管理仍然具 有負向相關的顯著監督效果。 本研究意涵我國電子業上市公司中,獨立董事與審計委員會的普遍設置確實能降低盈餘管理 的現象,然而必須對其兼任席次有適度的限制才能保有此項監督效能。若依目前法規對兼任獨立董事的席次規範,固然能 有效降低盈餘管理情形,但實務上獨立董事平均兼任其它董事席次過於偏高的情況下,此一監督效果就無法發揮,故本研 究結果可供主管機關與企業管理階層作為設置獨立董事與審計委員會的決策參考之用。
