摘要:

本文通过构建有效的股东合谋指数,考察了家族上市公司多个大股东存在的合谋动机,并进一步选取2003年至2012年的经验数据,实证检验了股东合谋对家族企业非效率投资现象的影响。实证研究发现股东合谋能够导致家族上市公司的过度投资和投资不足等非效率投资现象;而且,与投资不足相比,股东合谋更容易引起家族上市公司的过度投资。与以往文献仅关注管理层或控股股东的代理问题不同,本文将"股东与股东"的代理问题纳入到统一的分析框架,考察大股东的所有权安排及其配置"关系"对企业投资效率的影响,从而为解释中国家族上市公司的非效率投资现象提供了新的理论视角--股东合谋。

Abstract:

This paper investigates the collusion of multiple large shareholders in Chinese family firms. We study the influence of shareholders' collusion on investment efficiency using the data from 2003 to 2012 of Chinese family firms. This paper finds that shareholders' collusion can lead to firm's investment inefficiency, such as overinvestment and underinvestment. Compared with underinvestment, firms with large shareholders' collusion are more prone to overinvestment. Unlike prior literature that focuses merely on the agency problems of management or controlling shareholders, this study provides evidence of the agency problem of multiple large shareholders. By examining the effect of the relation and allocation of shareholders ownership, we provide shareholders' collusion, a new theoretical perspective, to explain the investment inefficiency in Chinese family firms.

Key words: shareholders' collusion, investment inefficiency, shareholders' relationship, shareholders' balancing
