Recognizing its importance to the industry, the current study intends to examine the moderating effect of organizational capacity on the association between corporate governance and corporate performance in Malaysia since no
prior studies have reported on the work albeit they examined the influence of these variables
independently (Tayles, Pike & Sofian, 2007; Abdullah, Lall & Tatsuo, 2008; Khong & Eze, 2008;
Fatt, Khin & Heng, 2010; Hussein et al., 2014). A questionnaire survey and the regression analysis methods will be applied in obtaining the data and answering the research questions respectively. The outcome of this research is expected to contribute to the industry by identifying of whether organizational capacity plays a significant role in moderating the association between corporate governance and corporate performance and hence acknowledge firms of how they can improve their performance through organizational capacities.
