This study aims to check whether corporate governance effect by by Return on assets (ROA) on the corporate performance persistence in listed companies of Malaysian stock and also to investigate the corporate governance practices in the registered companies in Bursa MY and their outcome on the relationship amongst corporate productivity and the extent practicing company set of rules and mechanisms. The sample includes the top 100 companies in Malaysia (FTSE Bursa MY Top 100 Index), registered in the Bursa MY, during 2009-2013 and because it is a comparative study, the final sample consisted of 84 companies. The statistical findings suggested that there is a correlation amongst corporate governance mechanisms and performance persistence, as measured by approximate ROA.
