1. INTRODUCTION
Agency problem is a central issue in financial literature since Berle and Means (1932) investigate the ownership structure of listed companies. In companies with dispersed ownership, individual shareholders have no control over the management to act in harmony with the interests of shareholders. Principal agency problem in a company like this is the agency conflict between managers and shareholders. But in companies with concentrated ownership, no shareholder can control the management or even part of the management itself. Agency problem that stands out in a company like this is the agency conflict between shareholders pengendali1 with minority shareholders.
Concepts that have been commonly used to identify the existence of concentration of ownership is the concept of ownership imediat.2 imediat ownership concept has a weakness in the study of patterns of corporate ownership because the concept of ownership can not be used to identify the chain of ownership, controlling shareholders, separation of cash flow rights and control rights , and the mechanism of the increase in corporate control (La Porta et al., 1999).
