Abstract: Abstract: This paper empirically studies the relationship among concentration ownership, board of directors and earnings management of public listed firms in China. We use annual data for 1342 companies listed on China’s two exchanges in 2005. We find that, on average, earnings management is negatively effected by concentration ownership, board size and proportion of independent directors and positively influenced by the duality of CEO. Therefore, such a significant relationship is good to discourage earnings management and improve the Chinese capital market developing healthily, stably and harmoniously.
