The main objective of this paper is to examine the effect of leadership structure on the value relevance of equity book value and earnings following the corporate governance reform by employing the Ohlson (1995) Valuation Model and based on the methodology developed by Davis-Friday et al. (2006). The findings generally indicate that equity book value and earnings are value relevant in assisting investors to value firms’ equity.
