股票期权并未寿终正寝

最近,因为微软公司宣布停止提供股票期权激励制度,改为发放限制性股票,有人认为股票期权已经过时了,宣称股票期权作为一种激励文化的时代要就此结束!我认为,非也!股票期权并未过时,股票期权作为一种激励文化并未寿终正寝。股票期权激励是薪酬制度中股票激励中的一种。股票激励常见的方式有现股激励、股票期权激励。现股激励是奖励员工股票,股票期权激励是奖励员工的买卖股票选择权,是指其持     

上市公司股票期权激励模式设计

股票期权模式是国际上一种最为经典、使用最为广泛的股权激励模式。我国目前已公布的上市公司股权激励方案中,单纯使用股票期权模式的上市公司占绝大多数。典型的股票期权要求公司的业绩表现能反映公司股票在证券市场上的价值变动。所以,如何在股票期权计划的实施中解决市场价格可能出现的失真,是股票期权能否有效实施的关键因素之一。

新准则中股票期权公允价值的确认——两种期权定价模型介绍

股票期权作为一种激励制度,已经越来越受到我国上市公司的青睐.选择向激励对象授予股票期权已成为上市公司的一种激励趋势.另外,我国新颁布的企业会计准则中,也要求必须将其公允价值予以反映.但是,新准则并没有详细规定期权定价模型的选择.为此,本文介绍了两种期权定价模型,以期为不同行权条件下的股票期权找到较为合适的定价模型.     

企业管理者股票期权激励的实施依据

企业为什么要选择股票期权薪酬激励管理者?明晰此问题对有效地使用股票期权激励管理者有着非常重要的现实意义。通过对股票期权薪酬激励的特征以及已有期权激励问题研究的分析,笔者认为企业需要在充分理解期权特征的基础上,并依据管理者行为与企业的特征等实施期权薪酬激励管理者。     

股票期权税收政策国际经验借鉴

一、国外股票期权税收政策经验 （一）两类股票期权纳税规则不同根据美国国内税务法则,股票期权可以分为激励股票期权和非法定股票期权两大类。两种股票期权适用不同的纳税规则。激励股票期权行权时,期权受益人只要不马上卖出股票,就可以不立即纳税,而且,如果按规定时间出售股票（出售股票时距行权日满1年,同时距赠与日满2年）,     

股票期权计划类型对管理者风险承担行为的影响——基于2006~2012年中国上市公司面板数据

股票期权目前被广泛使用,但中国学者大都忽略了其风险激励作用。本文以中国2006~2012年公布实施股票期权计划的公司为样本,将计划划分为福利型与激励型,分别研究其对管理者风险承担行为的影响。结果表明,福利型股票期权对管理者的风险激励效果弱于激励型股票期权,同时激励型股票期权总体上对管理者风险承担没有显著作用,福利型股票期权使管理层更加厌恶风险。     

Is the nonlinear hedge of options more effective?—Evidence from the SSE 50 ETF options in China

The linear hedging of the options ignores the characteristic of the nonlinear change of option prices with the underlying asset. This paper establishes the nonlinear hedging strategy followed the study by Hull and White (2017) to investigate the effectiveness on the Shanghai Stock Exchange (SSE) 50 ETF options. The results show that the nonlinear hedge of the Chinese option market is less effective than the U.S option market because of the short history and the lower activity of the Chinese option market. The effect of nonlinear hedging strategy is better than the linear hedging strategy for calls in China. But for puts, the effect of the nonlinear hedging strategy is not as significant as it for calls. The difference in the trading volume between calls and puts and the high short-selling cost in the Chinese market are the main factors leading to the difference in hedge effectiveness. This paper suggests that the stock exchange could reduce margin standard of 50 ETF securities lending, promote a more flexible shorting mechanism, and accelerate the process of index options listed, so as to achieve hedging the risk of options more directly and efficiently.     

经理人股票期权的会计计价

股票期权会计计价是股票期权制度的核心。股票期权费用化已为学界所接受,争论的焦点集中在方法的选择上。当前,应尽快明确计价方法,因为股票期权会计计价不仅是用来反映和核算股票期权经济行为的工具,更是调节各方利益的手段。因此,笔者建议采用"股利贴现模型"和"库藏股法"来分析不同计价方法对股权稀释的影响。     

FAS 123R高管人员股票期权费用化的实施与影响——对我国的启示

美国财务会计准则FAS123R及中国新会计准则均要求股票期权费用化。股票期权费用化的会计处理一方面有助于减少过度的授予高管股票期权;但另一方面又会对公司业绩产生影响,在一定程度上弱化了股票期权的激励效果,留给管理层更多的操控盈余的空间。中国刚施行新准则不久,股票期权费用化的影响需要更多的实证研究,可能产生的问题需要准则制定机构及监管部门更多的关注。     

Determinants and Valuation Implications of Compulsory Stock Option Disclosures in a Weak Regulatory Setting—The Case of France

Using a sample of listed French firms in 2005, the year of mandatory IFRS adoption in the European Union (EU), we investigate the determinants of disclosure compliance of stock option expenses under IFRS 2, Share‐based Payment. Stock options are a popular means of executive compensation in France relative to other EU countries. Prior to 2005, French accounting standards and corporate governance regulations did not require recognition of option expense amounts and required minimal supplementary disclosures. There was also a perception that enforcement was imperfect, in particular with respect to IFRS 2. Given this setting, we explore what factors influence the willingness of firms to follow compulsory IFRS requirements in a weak regulatory setting. We find that overall compliance with IFRS 2 disclosure requirements increases with U.S. and U.K. institutional ownership, U.S. cross‐listing, provision of English language statements, and decreases with CEO and family ownership of the firm. We also investigate how stock market prices are affected by the recognition and disclosure of stock option expenses according to IFRS 2 in this regulatory setting and find that investors value option expenses positively, particularly when accompanied by high‐disclosure compliance. Our findings have implications for other jurisdictions in the process of adopting or converging to IFRS.     

Market liberalization and tax avoidance: Evidence from the Shanghai-Hong Kong Stock Connect Program in China

This study employs two market liberalization programs in China, the Shanghai-Hong Kong Stock Connect (SHSC) program and the Shenzhen-Hong Kong Stock Connect (SZHSC) program, as an exogenous shock to stock market liberalization to explore the impact of market liberalization on tax avoidance. By employing the staggered difference-in-difference regression on Chinese listed firms, we found that market liberalization reduces tax avoidance by approximately 13.1%. This result is robust under parallel trend examination, falsification test, alternative regression methodology, and different measurements for tax avoidance. Additionally, this effect is greater for non-state-owned firms and for firms that have less external monitoring, higher information asymmetry, and stronger financial constraints.     

Corporate investments and growth options

Real options theory models certain corporate investments as investments in growth options, yet there is little direct evidence on whether firms actually capture growth option value from these investments. In the current paper, we attempt to bridge this empirical gap, and we also examine the conditions under which the growth option value embedded in such investments is enhanced. Results from a sample of manufacturing firms during 1989–2000 reveal that investments in research and development and joint venture (JV) investments contribute to firms' growth option values. We also show that, among JVs of different ownership structures, only minority JVs increase growth option value. Our findings affirm options theory's assertion that real options can help firms capture valuable upside opportunities, they highlight the value of examining contingencies that drive option value, and they also point to the challenges firms face in realizing the unique benefits the theory emphasizes.

Exchange options for catastrophe risk management

In this paper, we investigate the pricing issue and catastrophe risk management of exchange options. Exchange options allow the holder to exchange its stocks for another at maturity and can be seen as an extended version of catastrophe equity put options with another traded asset price as strike prices. Since option holders have to issue new shares to exercise the option, we illustrate the differences between option prices calculated using pre-exercise and post-exercise share prices. The effects of default risk on option prices and risk management are also considered. Finally, risk management analysis shows that exchange options can effectively hedge catastrophe risk.     

Mandated Recognition of Employee Stock Option Expense – The Case of Canada

On December 18, 2003 the Accounting Standards Board of Canada announced that all firms registered in Canada would be required to expense stock options‐based compensation effective January 1, 2004. While a few firms had voluntarily opted to expense stock options prior to this date, the vast majority of firms had not. This study investigates the market reaction to this announcement by listed firms in the Toronto Stock Exchange that continued to disclose option expense rather than report it in the financial statement. We find no average market reaction by our sample firms affected by this mandate around the announcement date, but a significantly negative market reaction during the 5‐day window around the issuance date of the exposure draft. However, in cross‐sectional tests around the mandated expense announcement date, we find a significant negative relationship between the cumulative abnormal returns and the Black–Scholes value (and number) of options outstanding and of options granted the previous year. These results suggest that the magnitude of the market reaction to the mandated expense announcement is related to the firm's usage of options. Our results provide further evidence that stock prices may not fully impound information disclosed in footnotes.     

Can Two Wrongs Make a Right? State Ownership and Debt in a Transition Economy

Existing literature suggests that both state ownership and debt have detrimental performance consequences in transition economies. Paradoxically, however, we contend that the confluence of these two conditions may not be harmful. By considering the interactions between the governance properties of state ownership and debt, interpreted in light of the institutional context of China (i.e. the interplay between local governments, managers, and central banks), we argue that state ownership and debt can potentially offset each other's detrimental effects. We test our hypotheses with a sample of over 1300 Chinese firms that were listed on the Shanghai and Shenzhen Stock exchanges between 2003 and 2005. Results of the tests confirm that while debt and state ownership each have a negative impact on firm performance when used in isolation, their interaction has a positive impact on firm performance.     

上市公司股权激励模式的选择偏好及动态演化——来自中国上市公司的经验证据

股票期权与限制性股票是股权分置改革后中国上市公司最常用的两种股权激励模式,这两种股权激励模式在激励作用、操作方式、基本规范等方面具有显著差异.通过对2006年至2009年首次公告股权激励方案的中国上市公司进行实证检验后发现,上市公司对股权激励模式的选择具有显著偏好,而且这种偏好经历了从非理性到理性的动态演化:2006年至2007年,国有控股上市公司以获利空间为导向而偏好于限制性股票,即终极控制人性质是影响股权激励模式选择的主导因素;2008年至2009年,影响股权激励选择的主导因素演变成为公司的成长性,即高成长性企业更倾向于选择股票期权模式.
