Using multiple regression analysis, this study finds that the independent committee compensation is positively associated to firm performance. Furthermore, firm size which is control variable in this study is positively associated to firm performance. These results imply that board compensation characteristic is associated with performance of firms listed on The Market for Alternative Investment, Thailand.
