dc.description.abstractABSTRACT The present study investigates the impact of some of the variables of corporate governance on firm performance. Main purpose of the study is to investigate whether corporate governance vary from sector to sector because overall results seem to be misleading on the premise that industrial norms vary from sector to sector and even firm to firm within same sector. For this purpose, a sample of 50% firms has been chosen randomly from top non-financial seven sectors of Pakistanfor the years from 2008 to 2014. These sectors have significant role in KSE-100 index fluctuation. Dependent variable is firm performance measured as ROA, ROE and Tobin Q whereas independent variables of corporate governance include Board Size, Board Composition, CEO Compensation and Ownership Concentration. Overall descriptive statistics show that highest board size is 16 with minimum of 7. Board size ranges from 8 to 16 in different sectors. There are certain firms in different sectors where leverage is zero and CEOs do not draw compensation.en_US
