The Changes In the Relation Between Audit Quality and Earnings Management After Financial Crisis

This master thesis marks the completion of the Master program Accounting and Finance at Erasmus University. Hereby I would like to express my appreciation to some people in particular. First of all, I am grateful for the help and guidance from my supervisor, Mr. van der Boom. He assisted me throughout the whole process of my thesis in such a nice and professional way. I appreciate his patience in teaching me the academic knowledge when I encounter with problems as well as his valuable feedback and comments on my research and writings. Without his help, I could not finish my thesis successfully and smoothly.
