Abstract
This study examines the relationship between board independence, board diligence and liquidity in Malaysia, an emerging market. Liquidity is proxied by three measures; relative volume, relative quoted depth and proportion of zero-returns. The results using a sample of 481 public-listed firms in Malaysia show that more independent and diligent boards are associated with higher liquidity.
