Listed construction companies in Taiwan has been increasing drastically these days. Problems related to the separation of ownership and control, as well as, the agency problems are becoming a new concern. The aim of this research is to explore factors that may influence corporate performance for constructino companies. Data from prospectuses of 26 out of 33 listed construction companies in Taiwan between 1993-96 are analyzed. Return on Equity(ROE) is used as an index measuring corporate performance in this research. Results of regression analyses show that corporate performance has a significant interrelationship with stock- holding ratio of the board, as well as, chairman of the board and top executives except the president. Analytical results also confirm that the compensation of the chairman of the board has a significant influence on the corporate performance. However, the stock-holding ratio of the president has no significant impact on corporate performance.
