چکیده انگلیسی


• This study investigates relationships between corporate governance and firm performance in tourism related firms.
• Board independence is positively related to firm performance and stock performance.
• Large boards enhance firm profitability, but small boards are more efficient in stock performance.
• We support the tourism growth led hypothesis in the Middle East context.

This study explores the under-researched relationship between corporate governance and firm performance in tourism companies. We employ instrumental variable modelling using 2SLS for publicly listed firms in five countries in the Middle East. Board independence is found to be positively related to firm performance and stock performance, suggesting that having independent directors among board members will improve overall firm performance. Board size shows opposing results: large boards enhance firm profitability; however, small boards exhibit more efficient stock performance. Finally, we support the tourism-led-growth hypothesis in our selected sample. These findings have empirical implications for policy makers, governments and academics.
