Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis pengaruh corporate governance terhadap financial distress suatu perusahaan. Secara khusus, penelitian ini membahas corporate governance, yang terdiri dari board independence, CEO ownership, executive director ownership, family ownership, audit committee independent, dan audit committee expertise yang dapat mempengaruhi kondisi keuangan perusahaan. Penelitian ini menggunakan 16 perusahaan yang terdaftar di Bursa Efek Indonesia (8 perusahaan distress dan 8 perusahaan healthy) selama periode 2007-2010. Hasil dari penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa tidak terdapat pengaruh yang signifikan di semua variabel corporate governance dan hanya return on assets (ROA) yang memiliki pengaruh yang signifikan terhadap financial distress perusahaan sehingga corporate governance belum dapat dijadikan alat ukur untuk mengurangi financial distress perusahaan di Indonesia.
