Book Dynamics of Corporate Performance in Thailand

This book was released on 2003-11-01 with total page 31 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle.

Econometric evidence is presented on the impact of excess leverage on performance.

Book Corporate Governance  Ownership Structure and Firm Performance

Download or read book Corporate Governance Ownership Structure and Firm Performance written by Narong Preedanan and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study examines the relationship between ownership structures and the performance of listed Thai financial firms, using a sample of 39 companies which is accounted for 86% of the market capitalisation of all financial firms listed on the Stock Exchange of Thailand (SET) in 1996. The study employs both univariate and multivariate regression analysis. The empirical results reveal that the presence of controlling shareholders is associated with higher performance, particularly when measured, for example, by return on equity (ROE). This evidence is consistent with the view that large shareholders mitigate the “free-rider” problem of monitoring a management team, and reduce agency costs, as contended by Shleifer and Vishny (1986) and Admati et al. (1994). In addition, the separation of voting and cash-flow rights through the use of pyramid and cross-shareholding is not detrimental to the value of a firm. The study does not find evidence to support the argument that a family’s involvement in management has a negative effect on company performance. Rather, there is strong evidence to support the hypotheses that state-owned financial institutions display superior performance. Finally, the study does not find evidence to support the argument that there is a non-monotonic relationship between ownership concentration and company value. Nevertheless, there is strong evidence that, at higher levels of ownership (in this case 50-75%), the involvement in management by controlling shareholders has a positive effect on firm performance, in terms of accounting, ROE, and market measures, price-to-book ratio. The results add to the literature that evaluates an empirical the link between ownership structure and firm performance, and provide additional information to policy-makers engaged in the ongoing development of corporate governance in developing countries, particularly in Thailand.

Book The Determinants of Corporate Governance Oractices

Download or read book The Determinants of Corporate Governance Oractices written by and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study investigates the effects of the firms' ownership firm characteristics, and firm perfprmance on corporate governmance practices of firms listed in The Stock Exchange of Thailand (SET) during 2007-2008 by using multiple regression analysis. Firms' ownership structure consists of ownership concentration, institutional ownership, foreign ownership, government ownership, family ownership, and political connection. Firm characteristics are firm size, growth, intangible assets, and leverage. For firm performance, this study considers both accounting performance and market performance based on return on net assents (RONA) and Tobin's Q as the proxies, respectively, According to agency theory (Jensen and Meckling, 1976), this study hypothesizes that firms' ownership structure has effects on corporate governance practices of firm as well as the firm characteristics. In addition, this study also hypothesizes that firms' with good performance will have strong corporate governance practices. Cosistent with the above hypotheses, this study finds that firms with high institutional ownership, government ownership, or family ownership have strong corporate governance practices, as measured by corporate governance index (CGI). But firms with high concentration ownership have weak corporate governance practices. For firm characteristics, large firms have strong corporate governance practices while levered firms have weak practices. Firms with high market performance also have strong corporate governance practices. Neverthless, this study finds that there are five variables that are not significant associated with corporate governance practices, with are foreign ownership, political connection, firm growth, firm intangible assets, and firm accounting performance. Overall, these results imply that ownership structure, firm characteristics, and firm performances are the determinants of corporate governance practices of Thai listed firm even if not all of the varibables of are sigificant.
