终极控股股东两权分离对现金持有价值的影响研究——基于资本结构的中介效应

以我国2007—2018年A股上市公司的数据为样本,基于资本结构的中介效应,研究了终极控股股东两权分离对现金持有价值的影响及作用机制。实证结果显示:两权分离度越高,现金持有价值越低;资本结构在终极控股股东两权分离影响现金持有价值的过程中发挥中介作用。本研究旨在揭示:资本结构是终极控制人实现资金侵占行为的工具;并且当终极控制人两权分离度较大时,外部投资者将会对公司持有的现金资产给予较低的价值评估。以上发现丰富了两权分离及现金持有等相关领域的文献,拓展了终极控股股东资金侵占行为研究思路,对于上市公司现金持有价值效应的提高具有一定的借鉴意义。     

终极控制人特征对资本结构的影响——基于中国上市公司的经验证据

本文基于终极控制人框架,以资本结构为对象研究中国上市公司终极控制人特征对公司融资决策的影响.研究结果表明,相对于国有终极控制人,非国有终极控制人选择较高比例的负债掏空上市公司的动机更加明显;终极控制人至上市公司之间控制链层级的增加将导致公司资本负债率的提高.     

产权性质、大股东资金占用与上市公司财务风险——来自非金融类上市公司的证据

本文以2008年至2011年沪深两市非金融类上市公司为研究样本,研究了大股东占用上市公司资金的行为对上市公司财务风险的影响。并根据终极控制股东的产权性质将上市公司分为国有控股和民营控股,考察不同产权性质的企业间大股东资金占用与企业财务风险的关系是否存在显著性差异。研究发现：大股东资金占用程度越大,企业财务风险越严重;相对于民营企业而言,国有控股股东的存在会抑制财务风险与大股东资金占用程度之间的关系。     

地区市场化进程差异、终极控制人两权偏离对现金股利政策的影响

本文以2006～2010年我国沪深A股上市公司为研究对象,检验了市场化进程和终极控制人对现金股利政策的影响,结果表明:终极控制人的控制权与现金流权偏离度越大,上市公司进行现金分配的意愿和支付力度都呈明显减弱趋势,这种利用控制权谋取私利的行为在民营企业表现得尤为明显;而随着市场化进程的提高,终极控制人利用现金股利分配侵占其他中小股东利益的隧道行为有所收敛。     

终极控制权、现金流量权与盈余信息含量——来自家族上市公司的经验证据

本文以2003～2004年家族控制的上市公司为研究样本,实证考察了终极控制人的控制权与现金流量权对盈余信息含量的影响.研究结果表明,终极所有权结构对盈余信息含量的影响取决于控制性家族"利益趋同效应"和"利益侵占效应"两种影响的比较.较高的现金流量权会产生利益趋同效应,从而提高盈余信息含量;而控制权和现金流量权的偏离则会加剧控制性家族与小股东之间的代理冲突,产生利益侵占效应,降低盈余信息含量.同时,控制性家族在上市公司任职与盈余信息含量显著负相关.因此,优化家族控制公司的所有权结构,降低控制权私利应该是一条能有效提高会计盈余质量的路径.     

从现金股利政策分析上市公司利益侵占效应

从我国上市公司控股结构来看主要呈字塔形,在金字塔形控股结构下的利益侵占问题逐步得到学术界的认同。上市公司利益侵占形式主要表现为：关联方交易、担保、资金占用、股利分配政策调整等方式,而现金股利分配是股利分配的一种重要形式。本文主要从现金股利政策来分析上市公司利益侵占问题,为规范上市公司股利政策行为提出建议,并希望更好地保护中小股东的权益和完善中国资本市场体制。     

终极控制权、现金流权对民营上市公司绩效影响研究

在我国民营上市公司中,存在终极控制人的现象突出,终极控制人通过金字塔结构、交叉持股等方式使所有权和控制权发生偏离。由于我国中小股东的保护法律还不够完善,终极控制权和现金流权偏离成了终极控制人对中小股东利益侵占的工具,使控股股东与中小股东之间的代理问题日益严峻,这些问题最终都会影响到公司的绩效。因此,本文试图研究,在民营上市公司终极控制权和现金流权和公司绩效是什么关系,终极控制权和现金流权的偏离对公司绩效是如何影响,并且给出相关建议。

民营上市公司终极控制权、现金流量权与公司绩效

我国上司公司股权结构高度集中,终极控制人和其他中小股东之间的利益分歧是公司治理的主要矛盾,这在民营上市公司中体现得尤为突出。终极控股人利用其控制权对上市公司进行利益侵占并攫取控制权私利,这对我国资本市场的正常运行构成严重的威胁。为探寻有效的治理对策,本文尝试对我国民营上市公司绩效影响因素进行分析,探索构建提升绩效的对策。     

我国上市公司利益侵占方式偏好——一个基于所有权性质视角的分析

当前金字塔控股结构下的利益侵占问题逐步得到学术界的认同.文章以2008年沪市A股642家金字塔控股结构上市公司为研究样本,基于不同的所有权性质,从关联交易、担保、资金占用三种利益侵占方式角度,分析了我国上市公司金字塔控股结构利益侵占的状况,发现不同性质的上市公司对利益侵占所偏好的方式也不尽相同,并针对利益侵占不同偏好,提出了相应的治理对策.     

Development in Information and Communications Technology (ICT) Statistics at the Australian Bureau of Statistics

This paper outlines the ICT statistical developments that the ABS has undertaken over recent years. These developments have been on both the supply side (ICT industry) and the demand side (use of IT by sector). The content of ABS ICT surveys has changed significantly over the last few years and are expected to develop further in line with industry changes and emerging policy needs.
Recent developments in household collections have been the inclusion of IT use questions in the 2001 Census of Population and Housing and in various ABS social surveys such as Children's Participation in Culture and Leisure Activities. Annual business IT use surveys are now conducted and include topics such as Internet commerce and IT security. Biennial ICT industry surveys are conducted to provide data on ICT production, imports and exports, ICT industry employment, performance and structure information. An Internet activity survey is run every six months and provides regional Internet access details and infrastructure details on Internet service providers.
A major development for 2002–03 will be the compilation of an ICT satellite account. ABS intends to produce an ICT Information Development Plan to guide its future statistical development work in the ICT field.     

Incumplimiento del salario mínimo en Europa central y oriental

En este estudio se analiza el incumplimiento del salario mínimo durante el periodo 2003–2012 en diez países de Europa central y oriental con salario mínimo obligatorio nacional. A partir de los datos de EU‐SILC y la metodología propuesta por Bhorat, Kanbur y Mayet (2013), se cuantifica la incidencia y magnitud del incumplimiento. Se realizan análisis de regresión sobre determinantes individuales, laborales y macroeconómicos. Aunque la incidencia permanece relativamente baja, los trabajadores a los que se dirigen las políticas de salario mínimo parecen los más expuestos a su incumplimiento. Con el tiempo, una mayor incidencia se asocia a una razón más alta entre salario mínimo y salario medio.     

Value at Risk in the Suburbs: Eminent Domain and the Geographical Politics of the US Foreclosure Crisis

Several US counties and local governments have recently considered a novel solution to the foreclosure crisis. They plan to use eminent domain to compel the owners of mortgage debt—and specifically of private‐label mortgage‐backed securities—to sell the debt to the government at a price reflecting the loan's market value. The government would then restructure the debt and resell it to new investors. The plans are striking because—in contrast to both development‐driven eminent domain and the federal subprime bank bailout—they would force investors to assume asset devaluation and increased long‐term risk. Notably, the plans have emerged as an instance of financialization‐focused politics in suburbs and suburban cities of color, specifically majority‐black and ‐Latino/a suburbs. Local support for the plans, we argue, is rooted in the long‐term disinvestment of these ‘suburbs of exception', which became targets of subprime lending and eventually sites where the ‘financial exception' has been localized. But these demographic shifts, fragmentation and fiscal pressures have at the same time created a suburban political terrain in which the plans have gained their strongest political support.     

Towards a Theory of Serendipity: A Systematic Review and Conceptualization

Serendipity – the notion of making surprising and valuable discoveries – plays a major role in the success of individuals and organizations alike. Previous research has established the importance of serendipity and identified important individual- and organizational-level antecedents. However, the literature has been dispersed and the boundaries of the concept have been blurry, leading to a lack of conceptual clarity and structure, and thus limiting validity and managerial actionability. Based on a systematic literature review, I synthesize existing management-related research on serendipity and explicate the emergence and composition of serendipity in the organizational context. I first identify three necessary conditions that differentiate serendipity from related concepts such as luck or targeted innovation: agency, surprise, and value. Then, I draw from the literature on sensemaking, event-based theorizing, and quantum-based approaches to management to conceptualize the process of cultivating serendipity in the organizational context as a process of enabling potentiality and materialization, and develop a multi-level theory of (cultivating) serendipity. This conceptualization contributes to our collective understanding of how, why, and when (i.e., under what conditions) organizations can leverage the value in the unexpected, which opens up fruitful avenues for further research.     

Accountability of NGOs in Bangladesh A critical overview

NGOs in Bangladesh have been recognized as effective change agents in the socio-economic arena throughout the world. Their contributions in micro credit, non-formal education and primary health care are widely known. NGOs play a significant role in society. NGO accountability, as a result, has become a critical issue. NGO accountability in Bangladesh has been examined here in relation to patrons, clients and themselves. Of the three relationships only accountability to patrons is in a near satisfactory state. Accountability to clients is handicapped by lack of opportunities of beneficiaries to participate meaningfully in NGO policy making. Accountability to themselves is adversely affected due to the adherence to a strictly hierarchical system and the influence of founding and charismatic NGO leaders.     

Towards an Asian model of human resource management? A comparative analysis of China,Japan and South Korea

There has been much discussion regarding the possible decline and weakening of national systems of human resource management (HRM). Yet, culture and institutions are often cited as the major stumbling blocks to this outcome. Such constraints may dissipate in the analysis, particularly if ‘regional clusters’ are considered where geographic and cultural closeness and ‘openness’ to similar economic pressures exist. In such cases, it might be postulated that convergence in HRM will occur. We argue that China, Japan and South Korea represent such a cluster. This article examines these countries, to see if a degree of convergence is taking place and if it is towards an identifiable ‘Asian’ model of HRM. A model of change is presented that distinguishes between levels of occurrence and acceptance. Details of the development and practice of HRM in each country are then set out. The article ends with a discussion and implications section and a brief conclusion.     

Ansätze und Ergebnisse anglo-amerikanischer M&A-Forschung

Based on a review of established U.S. management journals (1995–2003), six schools of thought are identified within the Anglo-American M&;A research: “Capital Market”, “Principal/Agent”, “Industrial Organization”, “Organizational Behavior”, “Human Resources” and “Strategic Management”. The literature review shows that the definition of M&;A success, the methods applied, and insights from empirical research differ according to the respective school of thought. Empirical studies focus on the resource combinations of merger partners, the specific circumstances of merger negotiations, and on integration management as antecedents of merger performance. Unfortunately, empirical findings have not yet provided reliable explanations for M&;A success. Based on the current state of Anglo-American M&;A research, the authors discuss implications for business practice, identify research gaps, and propose areas for future research.     

Cultural Economy Planning in Creative Cities: Discourse and Practice

While a growing body of research analyses the functional mechanisms of the cultural or creative economy, there has been little attention devoted to understanding how local governments translate this work into policy. Moreover, research in this vein focuses predominately on Richard Florida's creative class thesis rather than considering the wider body of work that may influence policy. This article seeks to develop a deeper understanding of how municipalities conceptualize and plan for the cultural economy through the lens of two cities held up as model ‘creative cities’ — Austin, Texas and Toronto, Ontario. The work pays particular attention to how the cities adopt and adapt leading theories, strategies and discourses of the cultural economy. While policy documents indicate that the cities embrace the creative city model, in practice agencies tend to adapt conventional economic development strategies for cultural economy activity and appropriate the language of the creative city for multiple purposes.     

Introduction of New Technology with a Sound Transition of the Input-Output Structure

We examine the general equilibrium repercussions associated with the introduction of new technologies, using the generalized Leontief system that allows technological substitutions. We show that an untested introduction of cost-increasing technologies in any industry may result in creating a non-productive technological structure that does not satisfy the Hawkins-Simon condition, following the autonomous dynamic adjustment process with structural transitions in the economic system. Therefore, we propose a practicable control scheme of introducing cost-increasing technologies that strictly avoids the creation of non-productive structures in all periods of structural transition, using the available information on the ex ante technological structure.     

Input/output ranges and performance: an examination of US machine tool producers

Despite the establishment of high-tech multinational enterprises (MNEs) in Ireland since the late 1950s, the country did not succeed in closing the technological gap with most of its EU counterparts. The weak National System of Innovation (NSI), and in particular low business and government R&D levels, combined with a lack of research and technology linkages between MNEs and indigenous firms, explain these poor results. However, the Shannon region in the West of the country presents some specific institutional characteristics that could theoretically make the region a strong technological enclave. The various actors in the region - i.e. the administrative, financial, political and research institutions, as well as the business organizations - have indeed infused a new type of economic development. After a brief review of the available concepts and models articulated around these actors and their interrelationships, the paper analyses whether the Shannon region, taken as an illustrative example, mirrors a specific economic and technological localized setting. The study is based on a survey of indigenous and foreign firms.
