ABSTRACT

This study aims to obtain empirical evidence of the influence of the six elements of fraud hexagon theory on potential financial statement fraud by involving the audit committee which acts as a moderating variable in the financial statements of state- owned companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange in 2016-2020. Potential financial statement fraud is measured using the f-score model. The research sample was obtained by the purposive sampling technique. Data analysis methods and techniques include descriptive statistics, evaluation of the SEM-PLS model, and hypothesis testing. The results show that financial pressure has a positive effect on potential financial statement fraud, effective monitoring has a negative effect on potential financial statement fraud, while related party transactions, CEO education, CEO narcissism, and political connection do not affect potential financial statement fraud. The role of the audit committee as a moderating variable is only able to weaken the relationship between financial pressure and potential financial statement fraud.
