This book was released on 2022-01-25 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The relationship between ownership structure and firm performance has been studied extensively in corporate finance and corporate governance literature. Nevertheless, the mediation (path) analysis to examine the issue can be adopted as a new approach to explain why and how ownership structure is related to firm performance and vice versa. This approach calls for full recognition of the roles of agency costs and corporate risk-taking as essential mediating variables in the bi-directional and mediated relationship between ownership structure and firm performance. Based on the agency theory, corporate risk management theory and accounting for the dynamic endogeneity in the ownership–performance relationship, this book develops two-mediator mediation models, including recursive and non-recursive mediation models, to investigate the ownership structure–firm performance relationship. It is demonstrated that agency costs and corporate risk-taking are the ‘missing links’ in the ownership structure–firm performance relationship. Hence, this book brings into attention the mediation and dynamic approach to this issue and enhances the knowledge of the mechanisms for improving firm’s financial performance. This book will be of interest to corporate finance, management and economics researchers and policy makers. Post-graduate research students in corporate governance and corporate finance will also find this book beneficial to the application of econometrics into multi-dimensional and complex issues of the firm, including ownership structure, agency problems, corporate risk management and financial performance.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study investigates whether ownership structure has significant effects on the performance of publicly-listed companies in China, and in what way if it does. Publicly- listed stock companies allow us to quantify the ownership mix and concentration and thus provide a unique opportunity for studying the above issue. The recent literature on the role of large institutional shareholders in corporate governance provides the theoretical foundation of this study. A typical listed stock company in China has a mixed ownership structure with the state, legal persons (institutions), and domestic individuals as the three predominant groups of shareholders. Each holds about 30 percent of total outstanding shares. Employees and foreign investors together hold less than 10 percent. The ownership concentration is high with the five largest shareholders accounting for 58 percent of the outstanding shares in 1995, compared to 57.8 percent in Czech Republic, 42 percent in Germany and 33 percent in Japan. Results from our empirical analysis show that ownership structure (both the mix and concentration)indeed has significant effects on the performance of stock companies. First, there is a positive and significant correlation between ownership concentration and profitability. Second, the effect of ownership concentration is stronger for companies dominated by legal person shareholders than for those dominated by the state. Third, firms? profitability is positively correlated with the fraction of legal person shares, but it is either negatively correlated or uncorrelated with the fraction of state shares and tradable A-shares held mostly by individuals. Last, labor productivity tends to decline as the proportion of state shares increases. These results suggest the importance of large institutional shareholders in corporate governance and performance, the inefficiency of state ownership, and potential problems in an overly dispersed ownership structure.

Download or read book The Co operative Game Theory of the Firm written by Masahiko Aoki and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 1986 with total page 219 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This highly original book challenges the orthodox economic theory of the firm as a mysterious "black box" whose internal design is unknown and irrelevant and which operates solely to maximize shareholder profit. Instead, the author proposes a new "cooperative game theory," in which the firm is a coalition of shareholders and employees, with its market behavior and internal distribution the result of a cooperative game (bargaining). Aoki tests his model against existing industrial structures, including the Anglo-American unionized firm, the German/Swedish co-determination firm, and the American non-union or Japanese firm.

This book was released on 2007-07 with total page 109 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Diploma Thesis from the year 2003 in the subject Business economics - Investment and Finance, grade: 1,1 (A), European Business School - International University Schlo Reichartshausen Oestrich-Winkel (Endowed-Chairf for Corporate Finance and Capital Markets), language: English, abstract: The idea that the general characteristics of a firm's ownership structure can affect performance has achieved considerable attention and related research brought forward relatively consistent empirical evidence e.g. on the positive impact of managerial ownership on firm performance. However, the evidence on the relation between ownership and capital structure is less consistent and numerous, although there are good reasons to believe that there may be such a relationship. Since the capital structure irrelevance propositions of MODIGLIANI/MILLER economists have devoted considerable time to studying cross-sectional and time-series variations in capital structure. More recent work following the seminal contribution by JENSEN/MECKLING has employed an agency theory perspective in the search for an explanation of capital structure variations. With this managerial perspective capital structure is not only explained by variations in internal and external contextual factors of the firm, but also by the values, goals, preferences and desires of managers. Corporate financing decisions are influenced by managers' incentives and the incentives for managers to act opportunistically can be influenced by the ownership structure of the firm. However, most empirical work analyzing a firm's capital structure in cross-sectional and time-series studies ignores the equity ownership structure as a possible explanatory variable. This can be partly explained by problems associated with the availability of ownership data, when compared to readily available accounting and market data on other relevant variables. Notwithstanding, it entails a problem of model misspecification as omitting a relevant variable

Download or read book Ownership Structure and Company s Performance written by Dauren Chagirov and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The thesis investigates the relationship between the ownership structure and the financial performance of publicly-listed firms in Russia. The 2015-2018 average values of market-to-book equity ratio (M/B) and return on assets (ROA) are used for evaluation of the firm's performance. Furthermore, 2014 values for managerial and state shareholdings are employed for measuring the ownership structure of the company. To my knowledge, no paper has examined the relationship between managerial shareholdings and performance of Russian firms both on individual firm and portfolio levels. Using single and two-stage least squares regressions, I find a statistically significant negative impact of both managerial and state shareholdings on the strategic performance (measured by M/B) of the firms. While the negative influence of state shareholdings on strategic performance is anticipated and supported by literature, the negative effect of managerial ownership is unexpected. At the same time, I conclude no impact of both managerial and state ownership on operational efficiency (measured by ROA) of the firm. I also employ a portfolio approach to examine the relationship between state ownership and performance measured by stock returns. I compare average monthly returns and total returns across the industries and M/B. Based on the portfolio approach, I cannot conclude that publicly-listed firms without state-owners perform significantly different from state-controlled entities.
Download or read book Capital Structure Equity Ownership and Corporate Performance written by Krishna Dayal Pandey and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-08-16 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides empirical insights into the relationship between capital and equity-ownership structure of Indian manufacturing companies and their financial performance. It discusses and analyses the basic theories and concepts associated with capital structure, debt financing, levered and unlevered firms, the various forms of ownership, agency problem and its kind and the exploitation of minority owners by the large and largest owners. The study employs a set of the most reliable and suitable econometric estimation techniques to draw meaningful inferences on the Indian manufacturing sector. The novelty of this book lies in three particular aspects: the depth and dimension with which the topic is addressed; the robust empirical evidence that it has produced and the simple and intelligible approach with which it is authored. It communicates the crucial relevance of corporate capital structure and equity-ownership to the moderation of agency relationship and shaping the internal governance mechanism, which ultimately results in increased or decreased operational efficiency and financial performance. It will enable readers to understand whether an increased amount of debt capital would bring about positive results for firms or create an extra burden on the management of their finances, preventing them from taking productive investment decisions due to the threat of liquidation. The book will find an audience among advanced students, scholars and researchers who are interested in understanding the corporate finance practices and governance mechanism of Indian organizations.
