Abstract

This study aimed to reveal the effect of Audit Committee size, Independent Commissioner size, and Shareholder Equity Ratio on Financial Distress Avoidance. In this study, Audit Committee size, Independent Commissioner size, Shareholder Equity (SHE) Ratio, and Financial Distress were measured by using the Altman Z-Score Model. The research subjects were public companies listed in Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) during 2015-2017.
