经济刺激计划对企业投资行为的影响

以标志性的"四万亿"经济刺激计划为基础,基于计划的具体投向对企业行为的不同作用机制,把该计划对企业的影响分为供给型影响(间接影响)和需求型影响(直接影响),分别研究在不同作用机制下企业投资行为在投资方向和投资效率上的不同表现.研究发现:对于受需求型政策影响的企业,该计划显著提升了其固定资产而非无形资产的投资水平,且此影响仅在国有企业中表现显著;对于受供给型政策影响的企业,该计划显著提升了其无形资产而非固定资产的投资水平,且此影响显著体现在民营企业中;该计划还加剧了受需求型政策影响的企业过度投资的程度,且在国有企业中表现得更为显著.     

数字金融能够促进企业绿色投资吗？——基于中国重污染行业上市公司的实证研究

数字金融实现了金融资源的高效配置,为重污染企业实现绿色转型提供了新机遇。基于2011—2021年中国重污染行业沪深A股723家上市公司的面板数据,实证分析数字金融发展对重污染企业绿色投资的影响及其传导机制。研究结果证实,数字金融发展能够显著提高重污染企业绿色投资水平,并通过一系列稳健性检验后该结论仍然成立。作用机制检验结果表明,数字金融可以通过缓解融资约束、抑制企业金融化进而提高重污染企业绿色投资水平。进一步分析发现,环境规制、分析师关注度正向调节了数字金融对重污染企业绿色投资的促进效果;数字金融仅对重污染行业中国有企业和大规模企业的绿色投资水平存在显著作用。最后,基于研究结论,提出推动数字金融发展与企业绿色投资的相关建议。     

环境规制工具对实体企业金融投资的影响：负向惩罚还是正向激励

环境规制与经济发展在短期内可能存在一定矛盾，如何兼顾各类环境规制工具的特征，使其符合地方政府和企业的共同利益，是环境规制领域值得思考的问题。将环境规制工具分为负向惩罚型和正向激励型，以2007～2019年我国A股实体上市公司为样本，检验不同类型环境规制工具对实体企业金融投资水平的影响，系统研究宏观环境规制对微观企业的作用机制和异质性影响因素。研究发现，负向惩罚型环境规制工具对实体企业金融投资水平有正向影响，正向激励型环境规制工具会抑制实体企业金融投资，上述影响通过管理者的“鞭打快牛”和“重奖轻罚”激励机制形成影响路径，融资约束、搬迁成本、污染程度和企业规模等因素对上述路径存在异质性作用。研究为地方政府和实体企业面对绿色转型发展过程中的“阵痛”，提供了有利于其长期发展的决策思路和政策参考。     

财务柔性、内部控制与企业成长性

文章选取2015—2018年我国沪深两市A股上市公司数据作为研究样本,研究财务柔性对企业成长性的影响,以及内部控制对财务柔性与企业成长性二者关系的调节作用.结果表明:财务柔性与企业成长性存在倒U型关系,即财务柔性在一定范围内会提升企业成长性,超过临界值,财务柔性对企业成长性反而起到负向作用;而内部控制能够促进财务柔性对企业成长性的提升作用;进一步研究发现,产权性质不同,影响效果不同,相对于国有企业而言,这种关系在非国有企业中更为显著.     

盈余管理影响上市公司内部投资决策的实证检验

本文以1998～2009年间因虚增资产或利润而受证监会处罚的上市公司作为研究对象,分别以行业平均投资水平、配对样本投资水平以及企业理想投资水平为基准,实证检验了盈余管理对企业内部投资决策的影响。结果表明,样本企业盈余管理前的投资水平与正常水平相比并无显著差异;盈余管理期间的投资水平显著超过正常水平,出现过度投资;随着盈余管理的结束,其过度投资也随之消失,并出现投资不足。这表明盈余管理对企业的内部决策与资源配置有着重要影响。     

职业经理人引入对公司非效率投资的影响——基于上市家族企业的数据

以沪深两市2010—2015年上市家族企业作为研究对象,实证检验我国上市家族企业引入职业经理人对公司非效率投资的影响,并进一步研究在成长性水平不同的企业中职业经理人引入对企业投资效率影响的差异。实证研究结果表明：非效率投资普遍存在于我国上市家族企业中;上市家族企业引入职业经理人对公司非效率投资具有抑制作用;与低成长性企业相比,高成长性企业引入职业经理人对公司非效率投资的抑制作用较弱,即企业成长性水平的逐步提高会削弱职业经理人引入对企业非效率投资的影响。     

高管薪酬粘性、企业生命周期与创新投资——基于创业板上市公司的经验数据

基于生命周期理论,以创业板上市公司为样本,探讨高管薪酬粘性对企业创新投资的影响,研究发现:高管薪酬粘性与企业创新投资水平显著正相关;成长期与成熟期高管薪酬粘性正向影响创新投资水平;衰退期高管薪酬粘性负向影响创新投资水平。研究表明,高管薪酬粘性一定程度上是薪酬制定者容忍管理层失败的制度安排,企业在不同的发展阶段应采取相应的应对高管薪酬粘性的措施,以达到较好的公司治理效果。进一步研究发现,“奖劣”型高管薪酬粘性能更好地激励高管增加创新投资水平。     

企业投资—现金流敏感性行业特征的实证研究

本文使用沃利斯多组秩和检验方法研究并证实了上市公司投资水平、现金流量水平、现金持有水平等均存在显著的行业差异.对不同行业企业投资—现金流敏感度进行的比较分析发现,金属与非金属行业、石油化学及塑胶塑料行业、机械设备及仪表行业投资—现金流敏感度明显高于其他行业.引入成长机会与现金流交叉项探究其背后原因,证实金属与非金属行业整体存在“过度投资”,医药与生物制品行业整体存在“融资约束”.     

负债水平与企业成长性的关系

文章采用2006—2010年上市公司主板制造业的数据,按照成长性和自由现金流量进行分类,以资产市值账面比衡量企业成长性,分析面对成长机会企业如何调整资本结构。实证结果表明,高成长性企业倾向于使用更低的负债水平来降低代理成本,即高成长性企业中负债水平与成长性显著负相关;而在低成长性自由现金流量充足的企业中,资本结构与成长性之间的负相关性不显著,未能证实过度投资理论。

Doing good or choosing well? Corporate reputation,CEO reputation,and corporate financial performance

Using data from Taiwan’s top 150 listed companies over the period 2003 to 2014, our study explores the influence of CEO reputation and corporate reputation on the financial performance of companies. The analysis focuses especially on the interaction between CEO reputation and corporate reputation to identify which dimension of reputation is more relevant to firm performance. We show that, though both corporate reputation and CEO reputation have an individual impact that benefits the financial performance of the company, the impact of CEO reputation is more persistent across different time periods and more comprehensive across different industries. Furthermore, we find that CEO reputation still has a positive impact on firm performance when corporate reputation is poor, indicating that CEO reputation is more important to firm performance. To pursue better financial performance, should a company make greater effort to build a good corporate reputation, or merely recruit a CEO with a good reputation? Our suggestion here is simple: “choosing well” is better than “doing good.”     

Does organization capital matter? An analysis of the performance implications of CEO power

Chief executive officer (CEO) power reflects the ability of the CEO to influence the firm's decision-making. Whether the CEO of the firm could manage the firm’s investment assets to support maximizing the efficiency of resource allocation is an important issue. As previous studies found, organization capital is a key intangible asset that improves the firm’s production efficiency and affects long-term performance. This study explores how CEO power affects organization capital investments and how it further affects the efficiency of firm resource allocation. We use the following three variables to measure CEO power: CEO founder, CEO-only insider and CEO duality. Our results indicate that the level of CEO power can influence a firm’s value by controlling the organization capital. When the firm’s CEO is also the founder, the CEO will attempt to increase investments in organization capital to create growth opportunities for the firm, which will therefore increase the firm's value. Specifically, when the company is in financial distress, the powerful CEO's increasing in organizational capital investment will expose the company to greater risk of loss of intangible assets. This result may further increase the company's price volatility.     

海归人才有助于企业债务融资吗?——基于CEO权力视角的分析

本文以2008~2016年A股上市公司为样本,基于CEO权力视角,研究了CEO海外经历对企业债务融资成本的影响。研究发现,具备海外经历的CEO所在企业拥有更低的债务融资成本;当具有海外经历的CEO持有公司股权、在公司任职时间较长、具备较高的学历时,更能发挥对于公司债务融资成本的降低作用。本文的研究丰富了CEO海外经历对企业财务行为影响方面的研究,也为全面评估人才引进政策补充了经验证据。     

Chief executive officer ability,corporate social responsibility,and financial performance: The moderating role of the environment

This paper seeks to explore how chief executive officer (CEO) ability influences the economic impact of corporate social responsibility strategic decisions. Currently, the evidence on the impact of corporate social responsibility on the value of the company is mixed; in this paper, we aim to observe the moderate role played by this particularity of the CEO in the relationship between socially responsible commitment and financial performance. Our results identify that the most able CEOs make investments in social and environmental practices that lead to greater financial performance; in contrast, the less able CEOs can overinvest or underinvest in an opportunistic way for personal benefit at shareholders' expense. In addition, the role that CEO ability plays in social and environmental strategies is particularly pertinent in munificent environments that foment managerial discretion; in these contexts, high managerial ability leads to investment in socially responsible performance, which benefits shareholders by alleviating moral hazard.     

Impact of CEO narcissism and hubris on corporate sustainability and firm performance

To explore the personality traits and corporate strategy of chief executive officers (CEOs), this study investigates how narcissistic and hubristic tendencies in CEOs affect the relationship between corporate sustainability practices (CSP) and firm performance. The primary purpose is to examine whether CEO narcissism and hubris can moderate the effect of corporate sustainability on firm performance. We investigate the influence of corporate sustainability on firm performance in three dimensions: economic, environmental, and social. The relationship between the mechanisms of supervision and agency theory is explored to assist investors in decision making. The results of this study show that compared to narcissistic CEOs, hubristic CEOs will further enhance the positive influence of CSP on corporate performance, especially in the environmental and social dimensions. This research strengthens the literature on CEO narcissism and hubris by demonstrating that CEO personality traits influence the relationship between corporate sustainability practices and firm performance.     

Components of CEO Transformational Leadership and Corporate Social Responsibility*

abstract We use transformational leadership theory to explore the role of CEOs in determining the extent to which their firms engage in corporate social responsibility (CSR). We test this theory using data from 56 US and Canadian firms. CEO intellectual stimulation (but not CEO charismatic leadership) is found to be significantly associated with the propensity of the firm to engage in ‘strategic’ CSR, or those CSR activities that are most likely to be related to the firm's corporate and business‐level strategies. Thus, studies that ignore the role of leadership in CSR may yield imprecise conclusions regarding the antecedents and consequences of these activities. We also critique transformational leadership theory, in terms of its overemphasis on charismatic forms of leadership. This leads to a reconceptualization of transformational leadership, which emphasizes the intellectual stimulation component in the context of CSR.     

税收征管、企业避税与企业投资效率

基于委托代理理论,深入探讨了税收征管、企业避税与企业投资效率三者之间的关系,选取2008—2012年A股上市公司为样本,实证研究发现:税收征管有助于降低企业避税程度;企业避税活动会降低企业投资效率;税收征管有助于提高企业投资效率;税收征管有助于缓解企业避税与企业投资效率之间的负相关关系。     

CEO财务背景丰富度对成本粘性的影响研究

以2012—2021年沪深A股上市公司为研究样本，探讨CEO财务背景丰富度对成本粘性的影响。研究发现，CEO财务背景丰富度对成本粘性有抑制作用，CFO财务执行力在CEO财务背景丰富度对成本粘性的影响关系中具有正向中介作用，环境动态性和环境包容性具有负向调节效应。异质性分析发现，CEO财务背景丰富度对成本粘性的抑制作用在成长期企业中更加显著，但不存在企业规模异质性；CFO财务执行力对中位数以下规模企业和成长期企业的中介作用更加显著；环境动态性和环境包容性对中位数以下规模企业和成长期企业的负向调节效应更加显著。     

国有上市公司的治理机制与过度投资

以特定行业388家国有上市公司2001-2005年数据为样本,在界定过度投资水平和分析投资决策机制基础上,选取治理机制中的股权结构、董事会和产品市场竞争三方面,分析并实证检验其对过度投资的影响。结果显示,国有股比例的增加使国有公司过度投资水平更高;股权制衡对投资过度有制约作用;地方控股较中央控股国有公司,过度投资水平更高。产品市场竞争对过度投资有制约作用,但不显著。董事会特征与过度投资之间无显著关系。
