The data analysis technique used is Partial Least Square. The test results prove that board female and board expertise increase accounting conservatism, while board overconfidence reduces conservatism. However, there is no relationship between board size and accounting conservatism. This study also indicates that institutional ownership strengthens the relationship between board females and board expertise to accounting conservatism. Contrary, institutional ownership fails as moderating variable between board size and accounting conservatism relationship. In testing the board overconfidence variable, the percentage of institutional ownership variable cannot be a moderating variable. Nevertheless, the interaction between board overconfidence and the number of institutional investors has a negative effect on accounting conservatism.
