حاکمیت شرکتی و انطباق اولیه با IFRS در بازارهای نو ظهور: مورد حسابداری مالیات بر درآمد در مصر

The paper examines the corporate governance factors and the independent audit quality as determinants of compliance with IFRS recognition and disclosure requirements of income tax accounting in Egypt. Using the initial IFRS adoption in Egypt, the results show evidence that corporate governance factors that indicate the sophistication level of both company's management and owners (i.e., institutional ownership and foreign representation on the board) and the perceived quality of the engaged auditor improve compliance with IFRS requirements. Companies with higher levels of institutional ownership and foreign representation on the board are more likely to engage an audit firm with international affiliation and comply with IFRS recognition and disclosure requirements. The results underline the significance of professional development and regulations of local audit industries in emerging countries for actual compliance with IFRS requirements when they are officially adopted in these countries.
