Abstract

The intersection of corporate ethics and audit committee effectiveness represents a critical nexus in contemporary corporate governance research. While substantial literature exists on both topics independently, the dynamic relationship between ethical organizational frameworks and audit committee performance remains inadequately explored, particularly across diverse industrial contexts. This empirical study addresses this research gap by investigating how corporate ethical practices influence audit committee effectiveness in varying industrial environments, employing a novel methodological approach that transcends traditional financial metrics.
