基于公司治理结构的财务控制模式选择

公司治理结构是公司制度的核心,良好的公司治理结构是提高企业经营管理效率的基本要素。科学、有效的内部控制制度,是现代企业实现其经营管理目标的有力保证。公司治理能促使财务控制有效运行,是保证财务控制功能发挥的前提和基础,是实行财务控制的制度环境。财务控制在公司治理中担当的是内部管理监控系统的角色,加强和完善企业财务控制,应从完善公司治理出发完善企业财务控制环境,财务控制作为管理当局为履行管理目标而建立的一系列规则、政策和程序,与公司治理有着密不可分的关系。     

中国证券公司内部治理影响公司经营效率的实证分析

通过实证分析中国证券公司内部治理对公司经营效率的影响表明:中国证券公司股权集中度与公司经营效率呈显著正相关关系;股权制衡度对公司经营效率的影响不显著;国有控股性质有助于提高公司经营效率;中国证券公司的董事会规模、独立董事比例与公司经营效率呈显著负相关关系;董事长与总经理的两职分离有利于提高公司经营效率;监事会规模、监事会独立性与公司经营效率负相关,但均在统计上不显著;中国证券公司管理层规模、管理层报酬与公司经营效率呈显著正相关关系。     

Disproportionate insider control and firm performance

The effect of disproportionate insider control on firm performance is ambiguous. Disproportionate control may enhance insiders’ ability to expropriate perquisites; on the other hand, it may provide stability of management and reduce short‐term market pressures. Using a hand‐collected sample of U.S. dual‐class firms, we find that disproportionate control is positively associated with accounting‐based performance, but negatively associated with Tobin's Q. These results are consistent with the incentives of entrenched insiders who are interested in profitability but less beholden to capital markets.     

The quality of governance and momentum profits: International evidence

This paper examines the presence of momentum (sell past losers and buy past winners) and proposes accountability, level of corruption, and governance effectiveness as a novel explanation for return continuation phenomena in an international setting. In essence, we test the possibility of beating the international stock markets and producing abnormal profits from momentum investing. We found that both accountability and level of corruption are significantly correlated with government effectiveness. Countries and institutional environments with better scores on the accountability and control of corruption indices maintain better levels of governance effectiveness. In addition, through an analysis of the international momentum strategies, the paper shows that the quality of governance as captured by accountability, government effectiveness, and control of corruption, significantly affect the international momentum profits. Overall, the findings explain the presence of momentum and add a fresh dimension to the literature that the quality of governance influences the stability of financial markets, which is of significant importance in understanding pricing effects and stock market anomalies. Our findings are robust, having been subjected to a range of robustness checks.     

Banking sector reactions to COVID-19: The role of bank-specific factors and government policy responses

This paper examines the impact of bank-specific factors and variations in the context of stringency of government policy responses on bank stock returns because of the COVID-19 pandemic. A sample of 1,927 publicly listed banks from 110 countries is used for the period of the first major wave of COVID-19, that is, January to May 2020. Our findings indicate that stock returns of banks with higher capitalization and deposits, more diversification, lower non-performing loans, and larger size are more resilient to the pandemic. While banks’ environment and governance scores do not have a significant impact, higher social and corporate social responsibility strategy scores intensify the negative stock price reaction to COVID-19. We further observe that the pandemic-induced reduction in bank stock prices is mitigated as the strictness of government policy responses increases, mainly through economic responses such as income support, debt and contract relief, and fiscal measures from governments.     

Toward new guardrails for the information society

Increasing interdependencies and deepening uncertainty change how the information society can be governed sustainably. In response, policy approaches worldwide are being reconsidered and new approaches developed that are more appropriate to these conditions. This article explores the conditions under which policies that worked in the past remain appropriate and when they will likely fail. It explores the role of dynamic analytical frames and a reconsideration of the normative principles of information society policies in overcoming these weaknesses. New instruments and policy arrangements that are considered include the establishment of boundary conditions (“guardrails”) for players, reliance on adaptive forms of policy, and reliance on ethics across all layers of governance. Driven by the global heterogeneity of values and the diversity of historical, economic, political, and cultural conditions, national and global governance arrangements will likely become more multi-centric. To avoid regulatory drift and fragmentation, policy must strive to create dynamic learning systems that help to continuously improve information society governance.     

科技创新与绿色治理协调效应评价及动态关系研究

基于2004-2016年中国内地30个省市面板数据,采用耦合协调模型和PVAR模型,实证检验科技创新与绿色治理的协调效应及动态关系。结果显示：2004-2016年全国各省市科技创新与绿色治理的协调水平偏低,并且由东向西的区域阶梯递减特征显著,多数省市科技创新滞后于绿色治理发展,协调等级处于濒临失调水平以下;东部地区科技创新与绿色治理之间存在双向因果关系,科技创新对绿色治理的影响不显著,长期看呈现为负向冲击效应,绿色治理对科技创新呈现出显著正向、持续影响;东北地区科技创新与绿色治理存在单向因果关系,科技创新对绿色治理的冲击效应不显著,绿色治理对科技创新呈现出显著正向、持续影响;中部和西部地区科技创新与绿色治理不存在因果关系,绿色治理对科技创新的冲击作用具有相似性,但科技创新对绿色治理的冲击效应存在较大差异。     

文化创意产业价值链及其组织网络构成研究

文化创意产业的兴起是知识化、信息化和全球化的结果,被赋予了许多新的使命,它具有高固定成本投入与低再生产与复制成本、需求的不确定性等经济与政治属性。围绕"创意→投入→生产→销售→最终消费者购买"这一基本产业链过程,逐渐形成了一个融合市场、科层和网络治理机制的组织网络。这一网络围绕文化产业链、生态和政治与地理空间的展开会有更为具体的网络形态,并形成多级网络构成。     

公司治理与国有商业银行的竞争力

公司治理与企业竞争力之间具有明显的正相关关系,这种相关关系根源于企业竞争力内在的逻辑联系。从公司治理制度的角度来探讨我国商业银行竞争力的提高。能进一步丰富人们对企业竞争力的理解,提高人们对企业制度安排重要性的认识。从实践的角度看,中国商业银行要形成强大的竞争力,必须真正建立起现代企业制度,完善公司治理结构。     

内部性及其治理机制:基于产权视角的分析

本文从产权的视角分析内部性的产生及其治理机制。内部性可以分为内部性Ⅰ和内部性Ⅱ。内部性Ⅰ是交易过程中,交易者自发攫取公共领域里的租金,没有引起争夺产权的冲突,达到产权博弈均衡时的内部性。内部性Ⅱ是契约执行过程中,因交易者对公共领域里财富的预期价值提高或对公共领域财富确立排他性产权的费用下降,产生了争夺产权的冲突,产权博弈非均衡时的内部性。内部性Ⅰ是无法避免的。内部性Ⅱ既可通过自由谈判和法庭裁决在事后治理,还可依赖政府社会性规制在事前或事中加以防范。这两种性质不同的治理机制可以起到一定的互补作用。但是政府社会性规制存在的缺陷也是显而易见。
