Description
Summary:The study establishes a variable measure for chief executive officer integrity (CEO) using causation words found in shareholder letters in the annual reports of the respective banks under the study. The study then relates the integrity proxy with accruals quality to determine if there is a significant relationship between the two variables. The researchers find that chief executive officer (CEO) integrity has no significant relationship with accruals quality. However, the results yielded a significant relationship between chief executive officer (CEO) integrity with bank size, and cash flows from operations and revenue growth with accruals quality, respectively.
