Abstract

This research aims to determine the correlation of foreign investor's interests on tax avoidance. The interests of foreign investors are measured by three aspects which are the percentage of ownership by foreign investors, substantial shareholdings by foreign investors, and the percentage of foreign directors on the board of directors. This study is a quantitative study using a regression analysis. Data are collected specifically from a developing country, i.e. Indonesia, public listed companies during 2011-2015. Tax avoidance is measured by: Accounting ETR, Long Run Cash ETR, Tax Expense to Operating Cash Flow, and Cash Tax Paid to Operating Cash Flow. The results of the study show that the substantial foreign ownership and foreign director ownership influence the company's tax avoidance.
