Abstract

This study aims to analyze the factors influencing auditor switching, considering audit quality as a moderating variable. The phenomenon of auditor switching in Indonesia is becoming increasingly relevant with the introduction of auditor rotation regulations and the growing demand for good corporate governance. This study uses secondary data in the form of audited financial statements of companies included in the Sri Kehati index for the 2019–2023 period. Data analysis was conducted using SPSS 31 to examine the effects of the audit committee, company size, audit fees, and financial distress on auditor switching, with audit quality as a moderating variable. The results show that the audit committee does not affect auditor switching, whereas company size, audit fees, and financial distress do. Furthermore, audit quality is unable to moderate the influence of the four independent variables on auditor switching. These findings conclude that the decision to switch auditors is more determined by internal company factors, particularly financial condition and audit fees, than by the audit committee's role or audit quality. Public interest statements The managerial implications of this study emphasize the need for company management to carefully consider factors such as cost, independence, and financial condition before making auditor-switching decisions, and for regulators to ensure that auditor-switching practices are carried out in accordance with the principles of transparency and good governance.

Abstract

This study examines the determinants of auditor switching by analyzing the effects of Audit Committee Gender, Audit Fee, Financial Distress, and Audit Report Lag, with Audit Quality as a moderating variable. Prior studies have primarily focused on general listed companies and have provided limited evidence on the moderating role of audit quality, particularly in sustainability-oriented firms. This study addresses this gap by examining companies included in the SRI-KEHATI Index, which represents firms committed to strong corporate governance, environmental responsibility, and sustainable business practices. Secondary data were collected from audited annual reports of SRI-KEHATI Index companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange during 2019–2023. Using purposive sampling, the study obtained 75 firm-year observations from 16 companies. Logistic regression and Moderated Regression Analysis (MRA) were employed using SPSS. The findings reveal that Audit Committee Gender, Audit Fee, Financial Distress, and Audit Report Lag do not significantly influence auditor switching. In addition, Audit Quality does not moderate the relationships between these variables and auditor switching. These findings suggest that auditor switching decisions in sustainability-oriented firms are influenced by factors beyond financial, operational, and governance characteristics, emphasizing the importance of maintaining auditor independence and consistent audit quality.
