Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study examines whether foreign institutional investors (FIIs) help explain variation in corporate tax avoidance and whether mechanisms such as tax morality, investment horizon, and corporate governance underlie the relation between FIIs and tax avoidance. We find robust evidence that FIIs are negatively associated with corporate tax avoidance. Moreover, this negative association is dominated by FIIs from countries with high tax morality, FIIs with long-term investment horizons, and FIIs from countries with high corporate governance quality. We conclude that FIIs play an active role in shaping corporate tax avoidance policy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We provide new evidence on the agency theory of corporate tax avoidance (Slemrod 2004; Crocker and Slemrod 2005; Chen and Chu 2005) by showing that increases in institutional ownership are associated with increases in tax avoidance. Using the Russell index reconstitution setting to isolate exogenous shocks to institutional ownership, and a regression discontinuity design that facilitates sharper identification of treatment effects, we find a significant and discontinuous increase in tax avoidance following Russell 2000 inclusion. The tax avoidance involves the use of tax shelters, and immediate benefits include higher profit margins and likelihood of meeting or beating analyst expectations. Collectively the results shed light on the effect of increased ownership concentration on tax avoidance.

Download or read book Governing Corporate Tax Management written by Chen Zhang and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2019-10-04 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on corporate sector development in the context of transition economies, such as China. In doing so, the book uses quantitative methods to test several hypotheses that are salient to the Chinese economic situation. Topics covered in the book include the relationship between tax management and firm performance, the extent to which a short-term focus on tax management can lead to long-term vulnerabilities, the impact of government ownership on tax management impact, and the link between the co-evolution of marketization and corruption, and institutional change and tax management. With that the book offers rich empirical evidence to examine tax management, firm performance and corruption in a broad context, while permitting comparison between the Chinese experience and the market economies.
Download or read book Institutional Ownership and Stock Price Crash Risk written by and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2024-07-19 with total page 51 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Master's Thesis from the year 2024 in the subject Business economics - Investment and Finance, grade: 1,7, University of Hamburg, language: English, abstract: This study uses OLS regressions to analyze the impact of institutional ownership (IO) investment horizons on stock price synchronicity and crash risk for a sample of U.S. companies. Two main hypotheses are tested: (1) long-term (short-term) IO (LTIO) (STIO) are negatively (positively) related to stock price synchronicity, and (2) long-term (short-term) IO are negatively (positively) related stock price crash risk. Stock price synchronicity (SYNCH) measures how much firm-specific returns align with overall market returns, while crash risk (NCSKEW, DUVOL, COUNT) indicates the likelihood of a sudden, significant price drop. The theory posits that short-term investors, more prone to sell shares, provide weaker oversight, giving managers more freedom to influence cash flows and increasing synchronicity. In contrast, long-term investors establish stronger management relationships, reducing synchronicity through enhanced oversight. The findings reveal that both long-term and short-term IO positively impact synchronicity, contradicting the hypothesis for long-term IO. This aligns with literature suggesting institutional investors use superior information mainly for trading rather than management engagement. For crash risk, results support the agency theory: long-term IO is associated with reduced crash risk due to better monitoring, while short-term IO correlates with higher crash risk due to frequent trading and weaker oversight. These findings align with prior research, indicating that bad news is disclosed under long-term monitoring, causing abrupt price drops. During the 2008 financial crisis, average crash risk was significantly higher, especially for financial firms. The interaction between IO horizons and the crisis suggests complex dynamics needing further study, particularly the negative interaction of long-term and aggregated IO during recessions. Robustness checks, including firm fixed-effects regressions and variable changes, confirm primary findings but suggest cautious interpretation for long-term IO results. Limitations include a relatively short observation period (2000-2017), potential measurement biases in tax avoidance proxies (long-run cash effective tax rate (LRETR)), and unaddressed endogeneity concerns. Future research should explore evolving ownership structures, corporate social responsibility, and impacts of recent disruptions like the COVID-19 pandemic on crash risk.
Download or read book Institutional Shareholders Investment Horizons and Tax Avoidance written by Inder K. Khurana and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We investigate whether the level of ownership by institutional shareholders with a long-term horizon is associated with firms' tax avoidance activities. In theory, tax avoidance increases firm value through tax savings; however, institutions with long-term investment horizons are likely to discourage tax avoidance activities if such activities encourage managerial opportunism and reduce transparency. Using a sample of firms with institutional ownership data from 1995-2008, we find less tax avoidance in firms held by long-term institutional shareholders. Probing further, we find these results are generally driven by poorly-governed firms. Overall, our results highlight the role of certain types of institutional shareholders in affecting a firm's tax avoidance behavior.

Download or read book Does Index Addition Affect Corporate Tax Avoidance written by Fariz Huseynov and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We examine corporate tax avoidance of firms around addition to the S&P 500 index. We find that corporate tax avoidance for firms at high levels of tax avoidance decreases after index addition, whereas tax avoidance for firms at low levels of tax avoidance increases after index addition. We disentangle the impact of changing governance practices from that of declining investment opportunities. Our findings indicate that the changes in tax avoidance can be attributed to improving governance practices, specifically higher institutional ownership and executive compensations, and this impact is above and beyond the changes in growth opportunities of index firms.
Download or read book International Corporate Tax Avoidance A Review of the Channels Magnitudes and Blind Spots written by Sebastian Beer and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2018-07-23 with total page 45 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper reviews the rapidly growing empirical literature on international tax avoidance by multinational corporations. It surveys evidence on main channels of corporate tax avoidance including transfer mispricing, international debt shifting, treaty shopping, tax deferral and corporate inversions. Moreover, it performs a meta analysis of the extensive literature that estimates the overall size of profit shifting. We find that the literature suggests that, on average, a 1 percentage-point lower corporate tax rate will expand before-tax income by 1 percent—an effect that is larger than reported as the consensus estimate in previous surveys and tends to be increasing over time. The literature on tax avoidance still has several unresolved puzzles and blind spots that require further research.

Book excerpt: No aspect of business or finance has changed more dramatically over the past decade than corporate governance. Until recently it has been unthinkable for a shareholder resolution to be sponsored by an institutional investor, or for a resolution sponsored by an individual investor to get more than 3 per cent of the vote. Suddenly institutional investors are submitting dozens of shareholder resolutions, all with substantial support. Astonishingly, shareholders have been reponsible for the departures of CEOs from the giants of Corporate America - General Motors, weestinghouse, IBM and Kodak.
