Book excerpt: Recent corporate scandals have raised considerable concern among regulators and stock market participants about related party transactions (RPTs), prompting Sarbanes-Oxley (SOX) to prohibit personal loans to executives and non-executive board members. In a representative sample of companies for a period that predates SOX, we find RPTs are wide spread and involve equally executives and non-executive board members; additionally, the proportion of related party loans is smaller than other non-loan related party transactions such as purchases or direct services. When we examine the relationship between RPTs and the extant literature's corporate governance mechanisms (such as board characteristics, CEO pay-performance sensitivity, and outside monitors), we generally find weaker corporate governance mechanisms associated with more and higher dollar amounts of RPTs. We also find that industry-adjusted returns are negatively associated with RPTs. On further examination of loans versus other types of RPTs not considered in SOX, we find a negative relationship between industry-adjusted returns and the number and dollar amount of loans to executives and non-executive directors, and a similar relationship between the number of other types of RPTs with non-executive directors. In summary, our results provide support for the view of RPTs as conflicts of interest between managers/board members and their shareholders, in contrast with the view of RPTs as efficient transactions.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study has investigated the impact of corporate governance mechanisms on related party transactions of Pakistani firms. A sample of 160 non-financial firms are used for the analysis that has reported related party transactions in their annual reports for the sample period 2006 to 2012. The empirical results of different regression models suggested that board independence, blockholdings and institutional ownership play a vital role in the internal governance mechanism. While associated firm ownership, CEO-duality and managerial ownership act as agents that expropriate minor shareholders wealth through related party transactions. Moreover, banking loan, multiple banks in relation and audit quality act as external governance agents and can mitigate the conflict of interest between the minor and major shareholders. These agents may lessen the expropriation through related party transactions by major shareholders, there by securing the interest of minor shareholders.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Given the fact that related party transaction (RPT) exists, the present study aims to enquire whether and how different types of governance structure will affect the impact of RPT upon corporate performance. We find that, companies with unitary leadership and companies with over 40% divergence between controlling rights and cash flow rights, RPT creates a negative impact on performance. Among companies with internalized supervisors, we find that those with a unitary leadership have a poorer performance than those with a dual leadership, and those with an over 40% divergence between controlling rights and cash flow rights report a poorer performance than those with a below 40% divergence. In contrast, the companies with non-internalized supervisors do not exhibit a significant difference in business performance even though they differ in governance. The difference in performance is explained by the fact that a company's monitoring mechanism is crippled by internalized of supervisors, thus allowing more leeway for RPT tunneling.

Download or read book Corporate Governance and Disclosure of Related Party Transactions written by Masood Fooladi and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 14 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Regarding the dual effect of related party transactions (RPTs), it is difficult to prescribe such transactions are beneficial or detrimental to the firm performance. However, disclosure of RPTs can provide stakeholders with necessary information to either discipline firms that engage in RPTs or take precautions against them. In effect, information asymmetry between related parties who involved in RPTs and other stakeholders is the main issue in these transactions. On the other hand, an important role of corporate governance (CG) is monitoring financial information disclosure as a means to relieve this information asymmetry. However, the theoretical literature in RPTs over the last decades has not given considerable attention to the relationship between CG and disclosure of RPTs. Therefore, the objective of this study is to explore the perceptions of experts on the relationship between CG and disclosure of RPTs. A Delphi method is adopted, drawing on semi-structured interviews with four experts to obtain a consensus on the opinion of experts. Analyzing of interviewees' response suggests that these transactions can be done under the supervision of CG mechanisms to make more benefit for the firm. Furthermore, CG requires managers to make an appropriate disclosure of RPTs to help investors making their own judgments, whether the RPTs are value enhancing or value destroying. Interestingly, this study points that regulators and researchers should consider the diverse nature of relationships between company and its related parties in different countries because of cultural or social characteristics. In addition, the evidence indicates that the interviewees placed a great importance on the factors such as the competency, knowledge, and political agenda of management, ethic of CEO and psychological attributes of the top managers in CG.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Prior work in India does not consider the effect of Related Party Transactions on performance in detail. There is no study that considers Related Party Transactions as motivation to tunnel and prop up the firms. This direct method approach of Tunneling and Propping is the focus of this chapter. Here, we estimate the value effect of Related Party Transactions on firm performance. The role of corporate governance mechanism is included in RPTs-performance relationship. The moderating role of corporate governance is included to study.The result suggests that large firms have the high amount of Related Party Transactions with Tunneling effect and the market penalizes them. Corporate governance mechanism plays a deterring role in Tunneling. Finally, when controlling owner has institution-driven motivations other than business transactions, the relationship between Tunneling and Propping is found to exist.

Download or read book Corporate Governance in China written by Wei'an Li and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2008 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Great progress has been achieved for the structural reform in China enterprises for the past one and a half decades. Along with the reform, the corporate governance structure has been established accordingly. The Chinese Corporate Governance Index (CCGINK) is a useful tool to objectively observe and analyze shareholder behavior, board execution, management incentive and restriction, supervisory committee operation, information disclosure and stakeholders’ interest protection, and is helpful in diagnosing issues that may arise during corporate operations. The CCGINK provides guidance for improvement of corporate governance, and can be used to enhance the sustainable development of corporations.—Chen Qing-Tai, Vice Director, Economic Committee, National Committee of Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference (CPPCC), Former Vice Director of Development and Research Center of the State Council Dean, Public Administration School of Tsinghua University The phenomenal growth of China's capital markets during the past decade belies the fact that Chinese companies have only gradually adopted modern corporate governance structures. Professor Li’s book offers a candid and timely assessment of the quality of the governance mechanisms they employ including the factors that influence their quality and how they relate to subsequent corporate performance. A proper understanding is critical for global investors with an interest in China's markets and for scholars who seek to disentangle corporate governance theory and practice in a fascinating market place. —G. Andrew Karolyi, Charles R. Webb Professor of Finance The Ohio State University Corporate governance is a vital issue that China listing companies and enterprises has to deal with. This book reports an important investigation on the subject of corporate governance. As a major result of the study, a series of governance indices conforming to China’s situation were proposed in the book. The author of the book hence received the Award of Outstanding Contribution in Chinese Enterprise Management, and I was very pleased to preside the ceremony to present him with this prestigious award. —Cheng Si-Wei, Vice Chairman of the Standing Committee of National People’s Congress, Vice President of Fudan Management Award Foundation Corporate governance issues are important around the world. The ability of a firm to raise capital, to align with partners, and ultimately, to sell products and services to customers, all depend, to some extent, on the quality of corporate governance. This is why the research reported here is so important. That it focuses on corporate governance among Chinese corporations makes it all the more important. With only a limited history of publicly-traded firms, Chinese firms are inventing—right now—the kinds of corporate governance they will need to compete in global markets. It is hard to imagine a more timely research endeavor. —Jay B. Barney, Professor and Chase Chair for Excellence in Corporate Strategy, The Ohio Stae University

Download or read book Related Party Transactions and Corporate Groups written by Ivan Romashchenko and published by Kluwer Law International B.V.. This book was released on 2020-03-06 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a market environment where economic actors conduct themselves as diligent and conscientious managers, the regulation of related party transactions (RPTs) would be largely irrelevant. Unfortunately, the corporate reality is far from an ideal world that is innocent of market abuse and corporate fraud. It remains necessary to protect minority shareholders from the wrongdoings of majority shareholders and to protect all shareholders from opportunistic managerial behaviour. This timely book – the first on the subject since implementation of the European Union’s (EU’s) revised Shareholders’ Rights Directive – provides in-depth analysis of how and to what extent RPTs are covered by existing legal requirements on capital protection and corporate group regulation, highlighting experiences and strategies adopted in Germany, Poland, and the Netherlands as examples for Eastern European countries and in particular Ukraine. Beyond his comparative analysis of the current status, the author offers recommendations for more effective handling of RPTs, investigating such aspects as the following: what constitutes a corporate group and how group issues are regulated in the various legal systems; what constitutes a conflict of interest originating in ownership and control and what types of such conflicts occur; whether RPTs within corporate groups should receive special treatment relative to transactions outside groups; combatting corporate raiding, most often carried out through illegal seizure of corporate assets; approval and disclosure requirements for RPTs; and how information about RPTs is disclosed publicly. Drawing on resources including legislation, case law, scholarship, and intensive discussions with practicing lawyers from several jurisdictions, the author underscores the imperative of establishing limitations and requirements that oblige a company’s officers, shareholders, and other potential related parties to follow certain rules whenever they wish to enter into an RPT. As a contribution to the debate about the convergence between EU corporate law and that of major eastern European states, the book has no peers. Practitioners in both East and West who advise on compliance with regulations for RPTs or represent stakeholders’ interests against abusive RPTs will ensure appropriate remedies and protection mechanisms for their clients.
