In this study I study the effect of board effectiveness, measured by Board Shareholder Confidence Index (BSCI) on firm performance and risk. I find that there is modest positive relationship between BSCI total scores and firm performance, which is similar to the earlier findings. More importantly, I show a strong relationship between board effectiveness ratings and firm risk. This relationship is tested using a panel regression, a two stage least square and simultaneous equation modeling. The findings are robust to all three econometric techniques. I further explore the relationship between individual sub-scores and find similar results in sub-score analyses. The relationship holds using multiple measures of risk and return, giving us a comprehensive picture of the hypothesized relationship.
