The objective of the study is to analyze the board-performance relationship for a group of 14 Canadian SOEs. This context is unique because SOEs do not have major control devices other than the board. As the interaction effect, if any, between the board and other corporate governance structures is expected to be low, we do not have to fully control for the potential impact of different control devices, or to disentangle them completely from influencing board composition. The performance is also measured using data envelopment analysis (DEA), a linear programming method used for the first time in this research area. As such, this study contributes to the operational research literature while applying DEA method to untraditional fields of research.
