This paper examines how multiple directorships, financial expertise and board experience affect the quality of reported earnings. The sample consists of 113 MSWG ranked companies for the year 2007, 2008 and 2009. Using OLS, the results show that financial expertise and board experience are positively related to earnings quality in top 150 MSWG ranked companies.
