Abstract : This study aims to examine the relationship between the divergence of ownership structure and audit fee after
controlling for firm characteristics, as well as the types of auditor. The divergence of ownership structure is measured by the
percent of divergence between the control and cash flow rights of the largest ultimate owners. By using pyramidal and crossshareholding
structures, on average, the largest ultimate owners of the sample firms are seen to have excess control rights at
16.91 %, with a maximum and minimum of 93.09% and 0.00%. The cross-sectional regression analysis also shows a
significantly negative relationship between the divergence of ownership structure and audit fee. Additionally, there is a
negative relation between firm profitability and audit fee. However, firm size, firm leverage, and BIG4 are positively
associated with audit fee.
