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 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 Ownership Structure as a Determinant of Capital Structure   An Empirical Study of DAX Companies

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

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 135 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 The External Control of Organizations

Download or read book The External Control of Organizations written by Jeffrey Pfeffer and published by Stanford University Press. This book was released on 2003 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work explores how external constraints affect organizations and provides insights for designing and managing organizations to mitigate these constraints. All organizations are dependent on the environment for their survival. It contends that it is the fact of the organization's dependence on the environment that makes the external constraint and control of organizational behaviour both possible and almost inevitable. Organizations can either try to change their environments through political means or form interorganizational relationships to control or absorb uncertainty.
