The number of public listed companies that categorized as Practice Note (PN17) by Bursa Malaysia shows an increasing due to financial distress. This study examines the effectiveness of board diversity in financially distressed companies that categorized as PN17 by Bursa Malaysia using content analysis of annual reports for five years as secondary data. The characteristics of board diversity include board professionalism and politically connected board whereas the proxy of financial distress will be measured using Altman Z Score for multiple regressions in evaluating financial performance ratios. The implementation of Malaysian Code on Corporate Governance (MCCG) in 2021 also will be assessed on the effectiveness of board diversity and its interaction on financial distress. The findings from this study is expected to provide evidence that board diversity may has a significant relationship with financially distressed companies. Overall, this study may assist investors, practitioners as well as external regulators in monitoring the company by assessing the effectiveness of board diversity from being classified as financially distressed companies.
