Abstract
Using the sample of listed companies from 2002 to 2014, this paper examines the relationship between independent directors with legal background and minority investor protection. At the same time, with the implementation of new " Company Law" and " Securities Law" on January 1, 2006, the relationship of them in the low litigation risk period and the high litigation risk is compared. This paper finds that, in the full sample, investors are better protected when more listed companies employ independent directors with legal background. With the change of legal environment, the correlation between the independent directors with legal background and the degree of investor protection in the period of high litigation risk is significantly lower than the low litigation risk period. The possible reason is that the provisions of the new law on investor protection have been refined and strengthened, thus reduce the possibility of listed companies' infringement on the interests of small and medium-sized investors. From the perspective of the background of the independent directors, this paper validates the function of independent director system in protecting the small and medium-sized investors.关键词
