Book Corporate Governance  Ownership Structure and Firm Performance

Download or read book Corporate Governance Ownership Structure and Firm Performance written by Hoang N. Pham and published by Routledge. 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.

Book Corporate Governance and the Effects of Ownership Structure on Financial Performance in the American Semiconductors Industry

Download or read book Corporate Governance and the Effects of Ownership Structure on Financial Performance in the American Semiconductors Industry written by Jihane Nicolas Assaf and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page 126 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Corporate Governance is currently a subject of great international concern and debate. Ownership structure is one major aspect of it that varies widely among d ifferent systems. Many literatures have been written on the subject but academics still a rgue that there is a tradeoff between large ownership concentration and liquidity. This study examines the relationship between ownership structure and financial performance. The variables used to represent ownership structure in te rms of ownership concentration and shareholders' identity are: Percentage of shares hel d by insiders and 5% owners, Percentage of shares held by institutions, Percentage of shares held by the major shareholder, four dummy variables indicating whether the major shareholder is an institution, a beneficial owner, the CEO, or an insider other than the CEO. Other control variables, which are the size of the firm, debt- to- equity r atio, and capital intensity, are used in order to capture the variability of firms' charac teristics and obtain a solid regression model. Financial performance is represented by both accounting and financial measures, which are: ROA, Market to Book Ratio, and Returns on Stocks on both the short and long- run. This study results in: * A positive relationship exists between the Percentage of Shares Held by Institutions & Mutual Funds Owners and ROA. * Having an insider as the major shareholder affects positively ROA. * Having the COE as the major shareholder has a positive impact on the Market To Book Ratio. * A positive relationship exists between the Percentage of Shares Held by Institutions & Mutual Funds Owners and the Five- Year Returns on Stocks. * A positive relationship exists between the Percentage of Shares Held by Insiders & 5% Owners and the Five- Year Returns on Stocks. * A negative relationship exists between the Number of Ownership Blocks exceeding 5% and The Five- Year Returns on Stocks. * Having an institution as the major shareholder affects negatively the Five-Yea r Returns on Stocks.

Book Capital Structure  Equity Ownership and Corporate Performance

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.

Book Capital Structure and Firm Performance

Download or read book Capital Structure and Firm Performance written by Arvin Ghosh and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-07-05 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Capital structure theory is one of the most dynamic areas of finance and forms the basis for modern thinking on the capital structure of firms. Much controversy has resulted from comparisons of the theory of capital structure originally developed by Franco Modigliani and Merton Miller to real-world situations. Two competing theories have emerged over the years, the optimal capital structure theory and the pecking order theory.Arvin Ghosh begins with an overview of the controversies regarding capital structure theories, and then statistically tests both the optimal capital structure and pecking order theories. Using the binomial approach he analyzes the determinants of capital structure while discussing the role of market power in determining capital structure decisions. Ghosh probes the questions of new stock offerings and stockholders' returns, and analyzes capital structure and executive compensation. He then looks into debt financing ownership structure, and the controversal relationship between capital structure and firm profitability. Finally, he discusses the latest developments in the field of capital structure.A concise overview of a major issue in business economics and finance, this volume provides a fuller understanding of capital structure influence on the financial performance of firms, and will certainly stimulate further debate. While hundreds of scholarly articles have been written on the subject this is the first book to test competing theories against measurements of firms' performance and their underlying capital structure.

Book Corporate Governance and Organisational Performance

Download or read book Corporate Governance and Organisational Performance written by Naeem Tabassum and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-06-28 with total page 335 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Establishing a corporate governance strategy that promotes the efficient use of organisational resources is instrumental in the economic growth of a country, as well as the successful management of firms. This book reviews existing literature and identifies board structural features as key variables of an effective corporate governance system, establishing a multi-theoretical model that links Board structural characteristics with firm performance. It then, using a comprehensive empirical study of 265 companies listed on the Karachi Stock exchange, tests this conceptual model. This research serves as a significant milestone, reflecting the socio-economic setting of emerging economies, and highlighting the need for the corporate sector in emerging markets to move away from a 'tick-box' culture. It argues that the sector needs to implement corporate governance as a tool to mitigate business risks; appoint and empower non-executive directors to achieve an effective monitoring of management; and establish their own ethical and governance principles, applicable to the Board of Directors. Based on an extensive data base, collected painstakingly over five years, this book offers new insights and conceptual framework for further research in this area. Given the breadth and width of the research, it is a useful source of future reference for students, researchers and policy makers.
