Abstract


This research aims to provide empirical evidence about the effect of the convergence of IFRS on foreign ownership in Indonesia. Tests are carried out using models from Hamberg et al. (2013). This study provides empirical evidence that the convergence of IFRS increases the number and percentage of foreign ownership by the countries adopting IFRS in small enterprises in Indonesia. This proves that the convergence of IFRS may have a positive impact on the world of investing in Indonesia especially for investors who come from countries adopting IFRS and the small-scale public companies only.
