| Tiivistelmä: | This paper explores the role of boards of directors in constraining research and development (R&D) spending manipulation. Based on a large sample of U.K. firms, it is studied whether independent boards are efficient at detecting and constraining myopic R&D cuts. The results indicate among others that more independent boards constrain the manipulation of R&D expenditure. |
