The board of directors which help company making business decision play the irreplaceable role in corporate governance,As the main part of corporate governance structure,the independent director system play an important role as well,In order to solve agency conflict and the interest of the medium and small investors.However,due to the controlling shareholder and management to grasp the initiative,It plays a decisive role in the selection of independent directors,As a result,the independence of independent directors is relatively lacking,which affects the effective governance of independent directors.Many previous studies have proved that independent directors cannot maintain independence in actual corporate governance,It didn't play a supervisory role,Therefore,it is necessary to study how independent directors maintain their independence for the effective play of their governance role.Domestic and foreign researches on the incentive methods of independent directors can be generally summarized into the perspectives of salary,law,market and reputation.In reality,not every one of them can be effective incentives,From a salary perspective,by convention,The remuneration of the independent directors of each company is agreed in advance and fixed every year;From a legal perspective,China's capital market transformation has not been completed,There are no standard and perfect statutory provisions to restrict the behavior of independent directors;From the perspective of the market,China's labor market is in an imperfect competition market,It is not effective to manage the appointment and dismissal of independent directors in a reasonable and standard way.Therefore,none of the first three perspectives can effectively motivate independent directors.From the perspective of reputation,it is more beneficial to study how to effectively supervise independent directors and motivate them to play a governance role.The reputation mechanism influences the role of independent directors,which is reflected in that the low reputation level will lead to the reduction of seats available to independent directors.It will affect the appointment of the independent director and reduce the trust of the independent director;A good professional reputation increases its bargaining power in the market and has positive incentive effect.A high professional reputation indicates that the independent director is competent,diligent and responsible,and will pay a greater price if his reputation is damaged.In addition,many previous studies have confirmed that independent directors with professional accounting background can better playtheir governance role.To sum up,this paper chooses the reputation of the independent director of accounting major as the entry point and analyzes the specific influence on the investment behavior of the company.This paper attempts to explore the impact of the reputation of independent directors in accounting profession on excessive investment,In addition,regional characteristics of independent directors,management power and other factors are further added,Local and long-distance high reputation of the accounting professional independent directors differences about the existence of excessive investment inhibitory effect will weaken the high reputation and management power accounting the governance effect of independent director,to enrich and expand the independent director and company investment related literature.This paper takes China's a-share non-financial listed companies as research samples from 2007 to 2015,and draws the following conclusions:(1)The higher accounting professional background of independent directors reputation,the company's excessive investment behavior is less,accounting independent directors reputation and excessive investment level change,reverse and high reputation of the accounting professional independent directors are,the higher the proportion of independent directors,excessive investment level is lower.(2)Compared with independent directors with high reputation accounting majors in other places,independent directors with high reputation accounting majors in local areas have a better effect on restraining excessive investment in the company.(3)The power of management will weaken the inhibiting effect of high reputation independent accounting directors on excessive investment.This paper consists of six parts,taking the reasons for selecting the topic,putting forward the hypothesis and verifying the hypothesis as the logical thinking:The opening part is an introduction.The introduction mainly includes the research background and practical significance of the reputation of independent directors and the excessive investment of the company,At the same time,it also summarizes the general ideas and writing methods of this paper,The display is more intuitive by means of frame diagram.The literature review is the second
