ABSTRACT

We Investigate Whether the Risk Management Committee and Indepen-Dent Commissioner Contribute to the Audit Fee. We use 720 observations fromindonesian listed compansi for 2015-2018. We use Ordinary Least Square Analysis to Address Our Hypothes. The result shows that the proportion of independent commissioners weakens the relationship between RMC and Audit Fees. Our Study Proved that the existence of a risk management committee would lead to a higher demand for audit coverage. As a result, the audit fee increased. RMC May Demand High-Quality External Assurance, but it may be ignored because the independent commissioner has more authority than RMC. In addition, we also used coarsened exact matching with a consistent result as the ols. These Findings Provide Evidence for PolicyMakers on the Relationship between Audit Fees and Risk Management Committee.
