Further, CEO's accounting-based attributes significantly moderates the impact of CEO overconfidence on forecast quality.Originality/valueThis study is unique in providing European evidence for the moderating effect of CEO's accounting-based attributes on the relationship between CEO overconfidence and forecast quality.
