Summary/Abstract: This research aims to investigate the determinants of financial reporting quality, which is a very complex issue in the manufacturing industry and a significant contributor to a company's finance. This research is therefore aimed to examine the effect of litigation risk, investor’s distrust, and legal expertise of the audit committee. The data were obtained from the annual reports of the manufacturing companies listed at the Indonesia Stock Exchange during 2015-2018. The research sample consists of 287 public companies, with moderated regression analysis used to examine the hypotheses. The results show that the risk of investor distrust affects financial reporting quality, while legal expertise of the audit committee is a moderating variable that strengthens the relationship between the risk of investor distrust and financial reporting quality.
