The persistent rise in the reported cases of accounting scandals and failure of firms after disclosure of juicy profit has raised question on the monitoring role of the audit committee in ensuring the quality of published financial report This has adversely affect the stakeholders' confidence on the relevance and reliability of accounting figures in the financial statement as the manipulations went undetected by the audit committee saddled with the responsibility of ensuring the quality of financial statement. Therefore, the broad objective of this study is to examine the impact of audit committee attributes on financial reporting quality of listed financial institutions in Nigeria. To achieve this objective, the following specific objectives were spelt out; To assess the impact of accounting expertise in the audit committee on the financial reporting quality of listed financial institutions in Nigeria; ii. To ascertain the extent to which tenure of audit committee members affect the quality of financial reporting of listed financial institutions in Nigeria; iii. To examine the impact of busyness of audit committee member on the financial reporting quality of listed financial institutions in Nigeria; iv. To determine the extent to which audit committee meetings attendance influence the quality of financial reporting of listed financial institutions in Nigeria; and v. To examine whether there is difference in the quality of financial reporting among various sub-sectors of listed financial institutions in Nigeria. Ex-post facto research design was employed as the research design. The population of the study consists of fifty-seven (57) listed financial firms on the floor of Nigeria Stock Exchange from which fifty (50) financial firms were selected as its sample size. Descriptive and panel regression analysis technique was employed in the analysis of the secondary data collected from the annual reports and accounts of sample firms chosen as sample for period of five years (2013-2017). The study found that audit committee accounting expertise, audit committee busyness and audit committee meeting attendance has significant positive impact on the financial reporting quality of listed financial institutions in Nigeria at 5% significance level. This implies that audit committee accounting expertise, audit committee busyness and audit committee meeting attendance enhance the quality of financial reporting of listed financial institutions in Nigeria. The study also revealed that audit committee tenure has a insignificant impact on financial reporting quality of listed financial institutions in Nigeria at 95% confidence level. This implies that irrespective of the period (shorter or longer) a member of audit committee spent on the audit committee board, it has no influence in determining the quality of financial statement. The study also found out that there is significant difference in the quality of financial reporting among various sub-sectors of the listed financial institutions in Nigeria. The study therefore concludes that, audit committee attributes have significant positive impact on financial reporting quality of listed financial institutions in Nigeria. The study recommends among others that regulators such as Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) and NDIC should emphasize that every audit committee must have at least one member with pure accounting qualifications rather than openness of financial expertise as stated in the Nigerian Code of Corporate Governance (2016).
