Investigating the importance of audit committee effectiveness in reducing fraud risk
Fraud as a critical factor in the financial arena poses a serious threat to public confidence in financial information and the financial reporting process; the costs and repercussions for different groups are heavy. Therefore, establishing a strong corporate governance system is essential. In this way, the effectiveness of the Audit Committee as one of the important tools of corporate governance plays a central role in preventing and reducing fraud risk and its appropriate and appropriate actions. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to assess the importance of the audit committee's effectiveness in reducing the risk of fraud in corporate financial reporting. For this purpose, the modified Adapted Model of Altman and Ditch et al. (2011) was used to measure fraud risk. To conduct this research, 87 companies listed in Tehran Stock Exchange during the years 1397-1971 were surveyed in a descriptive-correlational manner using Logit regression. The results showed that in companies where the effectiveness of the audit committee is greater, the risk of fraud is less likely to be high. This finding acknowledges a clearer understanding of audit committee effectiveness in reducing fraud risk.
