Abstract

The directors' board influences tax avoidance tactics. The board of directors diversity will increase the number of perspectives on alternative solutions to problems because of the diversity of viewpoints among its members. This study intends to investigate the influence of gender, education, and tenure on boards of directors on tax avoidance. The Indonesia Stock Exchange's 102 energy companies that were listed between 2016 and 2021 were chosen as a sample in this study. Based on the study's findings, tax avoidance is positively impacted by education but negatively by gender and board of director experience.
