基于SEM的董事会结构与公司绩效分析——以安徽省上市公司为例

安徽紧邻东部,如何形成中部的增长极对安徽经济发展至关重要。其中,如何发挥上市公司在产业结构调整和企业成长过程中的先导作用,引领大批企业走向经济竞争的前沿,是提高全省企业整体绩效的重要前提。研究试图利用结构方程模型,通过对安徽省上市公司董事会结构(包括董事会规模、管理董事比例、持股比例、董事会会议等指标)与公司绩效(净资产收益率、每股收益)关系的研究,为上市公司优化董事会结构进而提升经营绩效提供具有操作性的治理建议。     

董事长特征、董事会独立性与公司创新绩效

文章以2009年度我国深圳证券交易所318家上市公司作为研究样本,对董事长特征、董事会独立性与公司创新绩效关系进行实证研究,探寻董事长特征、董事会独立性与公司创新绩效之间的内在联系。研究结果表明：董事长教育程度越高,公司创新绩效越高;董事长年龄、董事会独立性与公司创新绩效的相关性不显著。     

领导权结构、董事会结构特征与公司绩效——基于我国中小上市公司的实证分析

文章在控制公司特征变量和治理结构变量的基础上,通过建立全样本和CEO与董事长两职合一匹配样本,对董事会结构特征中组成成员情况以及成员薪酬激励与公司绩效的关系进行了实证检验。研究发现,我国中小企业的董事独立性没有真正发挥作用,并且领导权结构影响了独立董事比例、董事薪酬对公司绩效的有效性。长期而言,应通过建立独立董事激励约束机制并逐步减少不在上市公司领取薪酬的董事会成员的人数,以提高独立董事、监事会和董事薪酬委员会对董事会和管理层监督的有效性。     

中小板上市公司董事会治理与公司绩效关系研究

本文选取深圳证券交易所184家中小板上市公司为研究对象,搜集了2007~2009年共三年的面板数据,从实证角度分析我国中小板上市公司中董事会治理对公司绩效的影响,并分别从财务指标和市场指标两个方面衡量公司绩效。再通过采用面板数据回归,发现在中小板上市公司中董事会规模与公司绩效显著负相关,即董事会规模越大,公司绩效越差。而独立董事比例、董事会领导结构和董事会执行强度并不影响公司绩效。

关于公司治理对公司绩效影响的探讨

公司治理是企业理论的重要研究内容,也是构成企业核心竞争力高低的重要标志性因素,其本质在于确保企业的决策科学并提高公司绩效。高水准的公司治理必然与良好的公司绩效相联系,公司绩效则是公司治理水平和健全与否的直接反映,公司治理结构对公司绩效的影响主要表现在三个方面,即股权结构、董事会特征和管理层激励。如何构成完善的公司治理结构来提高民营上市公司绩效,是非常重要的课题。     

出资人监管模式的理性选择：基于层次分析法的思考

综观我国当前许多地方在国有资产出资人监管模式的具体应用上,可谓多种多样,不少地方也在反复斟酌何种模式更能扬长避短。本文将目前存在的监管模式大致归纳为四种形式,即通过出资人对所出资企业组建或强化董事会的建设与运行、通过出资人外部派驻监事会、通过出资人委派财务总监,以及完全在公司法框架下全面重申和强化”三会”模式。本文根据出资人监管模式在监管独立性、监管效力性、监管持续性以及监管节约性四个方面的系统性特征,利用专门解决定性与定量交织问题的层次分析法,对决策行为的优化进行模拟量化比较,从而为理性优选出资人监管模式创建了一个新的思路。     

The relationship between board characteristics and performance of bank holding companies: before and during the financial crisis

We examine the relationship between performance of the bank holding company and several board characteristics. We find that board size, CEO tenure and board tenure enhance bank performance. However, we find no evidence that board structure or CEO power influences bank performance. More importantly, we show that the effect of board characteristics during the crisis is quite different. During the crisis, board size has a negative effect on Tobin’s Q and the non-performing asset ratio, which supports Jensen’s (1993) argument that large boards are less likely to function effectively. Further, we report that the non-performing asset ratio decreases with board independence during the crisis.     

公司治理与公司绩效——甘肃上市公司的实证分析

以甘肃上市公司为样本,运用实证研究分析方法,研究公司治理结构与提高公司业绩的关系。实证研究结果表明:甘肃上市公司绩效与公司持股大于5%的股份在总股本中的比重呈正相关关系;与公司的董事长或(和)总经理兼任大股东的董事长(或,和)总经理(或,和)党委书记呈负相关关系;与独立董事比重呈正相关关系;与国有股在总股本中的比重没有相关关系;与董事会规模没有相关关系。这为我们改善甘肃上市公司治理结构与公司绩效的政策思考提供了有益的决策支持。     

The impact of voluntary environmental protection instruments on company environmental performance

In the last decade there has been increasing emphasis on the use of voluntary environmental protection tools such as corporate environmental reporting (CER) and environmental management systems (EMSs). There has been relatively little research, however, on the impact of these tools on the actual environmental performance of companies. This paper presents the findings of a survey of 40 companies operating in Western Australia to determine the extent to which the implementation of two voluntary instruments has influenced company environmental performance. The research considered four questions: To what extent have CER and EMSs influenced the environmental performance of companies operating in Western Australia? What are the characteristics of these influences? How does the influence of EMSs on environmental performance compare to that of CER? Have other external factors concurrently influenced environmental performance? In general, most respondents indicated that EMSs had influenced environmental management practices to some extent. On the other hand, CER was seen more as a public relations exercise and had less impact on company practices compared with EMSs. Other factors that influenced environmental performance included pressure from clients, senior management, the public and regulators; corporate culture; and cost savings.

董事会构成与财务报告舞弊问题研究

本文收集了1999年至2003年因财务报告舞弊而被证监会处罚的上市公司的数据作为样本进行研究,通过统计分析发现,内部人控制现象严重、董事会构成不合理、监事会形同虚设、董事长与总经理两职重合都是近年来财务造假公司的重要特征。进而指出提高会计信息质量,防止财务报告舞弊,须从完善内部治理机制尤其是董事会构成做起。     

Board Characteristics and Involvement in Strategic Decision Making: Evidence from Swiss Companies*

abstract Boards of directors have a number of roles. The board's monitoring function has been the subject of much work. Less examined is the role that the board has in setting company strategy. This paper uses agency and network perspectives in developing and testing the relationship between board characteristics and involvement in strategic decision making. Using primary and secondary data, our results suggest that the level of board involvement in strategic decision making is related to a number of governance variables. We demonstrate that involvement is generally lower where boards are highly interlocked. We also show that certain types of board interlocks – namely horizontal (same industry) and those involving direct links with the banking sector – are particularly associated with this negative effect. There is weaker evidence that board strategic involvement is lower where the roles of company chief executive and chair are combined. We find no evidence that factors such as board size, or the percentage of outside directors per se are related to board involvement in strategic decision making. In doing so, this paper adds to the growing literature synthesizing the structural features and processes of boards.

The Impact of the Board on Strategy: An Empirical Examination

Boards of directors are coming under increasing scrutiny, both in the wake of a number of serious corporate frauds and failures and through a more general debate about the nature of corporate governance and its role in achieving national competitiveness. Though research on boards is growing, there remains a lack of empirical studies on the perceptions of directors themselves as to their role and influence in the running of organizations, and in particular the strategic process.
This article responds to widespread calls for direct study of boards of directors by using a multi-method approach involving an in-depth examination of 51 directors of UK public companies, a survey of 121 company secretaries and four case studies of UK plcs, where multiple board members were interviewed. Through the use of a grounded methodology, this article examines the impact of boards on strategy and shows that by establishing the business definition, gatekeeping, selecting directors, and confidence building, the board influences the boundaries of strategic action. Evidence for the managerial domination of boards was slight, but the results showed support for a number of theoretical frameworks, suggesting that multiple perspectives are required to fully understand the nature of board activity.     

Boards of directors in Russian publicly traded companies in 1998–2014: Structure,dynamics and performance effects

This article provides new evidence on the structure, dynamics and performance effects of corporate boards in publicly traded companies in Russia. It takes advantage of a new and unique longitudinal dataset of virtually all Russian companies whose shares were traded in the RTS/MICEX/MOEX over 1998–2014. The analysis highlights a number of strong trends in the evolution of boards of directors, such as a declining participation of insider directors and an increasing participation of foreign and female directors. It also shows that board characteristics are linked to company performance (market-to-book ratio, Tobin’s Q, ROE and ROA), suggesting that boards of directors play a non-trivial role in corporate governance in Russia. Testing for structural breaks in the relationship between board composition and firm performance provides some evidence of the changing role of corporate boards over time.     

Research on the New Developments of Corporate Governance, Board of Directors and Management Accounting

Based on corporate governance, this paper concludes that the core of corporate governance is the board of directors of the listed company. It also analyses the function of the board of directors on preparing, applying and appraising the strategic planning. It draws a conclusion that the new development of management accounting is the application of the board of directors and its several committees.
