Bank Ownership, Firm Value and Firm Capital Structure in Europe

We investigate whether or not banks play a positive role in the ownership structure of European listed firms. We distinguish between banks and other institutional investors as shareholders and examine empirically the relationship between financial institution ownership and the performance of the firms in which they hold equity. Our main finding is that after controlling for the capital structure decision of the firms and the ownership decision of financial institutions in a simultaneous equations model, we find that there is a negative relationship between financial institution ownership and the market value of firms, measured as the Tobin's Q. This is in contradiction with the monitoring hypothesis.Financial institution ownership, Firm value, Capital structure

Does Information Technology Investment Influences Firm’s Market Value? The Case of Non-Publicly Traded Healthcare Firms

Managers make informed information technology investment decisions when they are able to quantify how IT contributes to firm performance. While financial accounting measures inform IT’s influence on retrospective firm performance, senior managers expect evidence of how IT influences prospective measures such as the firm’s market value. We examine the efficacy of IT’s influence on firm value combined with measures of financial performance for non-publicly traded (NPT) hospitals that lack conventional market-based measures. We gathered actual sale transactions for NPT hospitals in the United States to derive the q ratio, a measure of market value. Our findings indicate that the influence of IT investment on the firm is more pronounced and statistically significant on firm value than exclusively on the accounting performance measures. Specifically, we find that the impact of IT investment is not significant on return on assets (ROA) and operating income for the same set of hospitals. This research note contributes to research and practice by demonstrating that the overall impact of IT is better understood when accounting measures are complemented with the firm’s market value. Such market valuation is also critical in merger and acquisition decisions, an activity that is likely to accelerate in the healthcare industry. Our findings provide hospitals, as well as other NPT firms, with insights into the impact of IT investment and a pragmatic approach to demonstrating IT’s contribution to firm value

Firm Value, Investment and Monetary Policy

This paper presents empirical evidence on the effects of three nominal risk factors, local interest spreads, US interest spread, and US federal funds rate signal-to-noise ratio on the value of firms and on the cross-listing decision of firms destined to three major markets in North America, Asia, and Europe. We use firm-level data in 29 countries of cross-listing origin over a six year period, from 2000-2005. We find consistent and robust evidence that the US federal funds rate signal-to-noise ratio risk factor in the Sharpe sense provides an important benchmark for firm value across the universe of publicly traded companies; and this effect is larger for smaller firms that cross-list abroad. Countries in Asia, Europe, and South America tend to seek more funds abroad through cross-listing relative to other regions in this sample. In general, we find that the lagged local interest risk factor is positively related to current probability of cross listing. Small firms located in Asia, medium firms located in Europe, and large firms located in Asia, Europe, and South America have a higher relative probability of cross listing abroad.

THE EFFECT OF TAX AVOIDANCE ON FIRM VALUE: THE MEDIATING ROLE OF AGENCY COST AND MODERATING ROLE OF FAMILY OWNERSHIP

This study aims to investigate the effect of tax avoidance on firm value with the mediating role of agency cost and moderating role of family ownership. Firm value is measured with Tobin’s Q, tax avoidance was measured with effective tax rate and agency cost was measured with asset turnover or sales to total ssset ratio. This research adopted F-PEC index developed by Astrachan, Klein, & Smyrnios (2002) to measure family ownership. Population of this research were non financial firms listed on IDX. Samples were taken for the year 2012-2016 and was collected by purposive sampling method where researcher established some criteria to be the research data. Panel data analysis on Eviews 10 was used to test the research data. This research find that tax avoidance significantly have positive effect on firm value. The results of this research prove that investor in Indonesia react positively to tax avoidance or do not consider tax avoidance practice as long as their interests are met. Furthermore, tax avoidance significantly have negative effect on agency cost, and agency cost significantly have negative effect on firm value. Tax avoidance negatively affects the agency costs because in doing tax avoidance, the agent strives to fulfill the principal's interests by providing higher after-tax profits, so that the interests of both parties are met and the conflicts and agency costs are likely to decrease. The path analysis result do not proven that tax avoidance have indirect effect on firm value through agency cost. Another finding is family ownership does not moderate the effect of tax avoidance on firm value. There are no different effect related to tax avoidance and firm value between low family ownership and high family ownership

Stakeholder capitalism, corporate governance and firm value

We consider the advantages and disadvantages of stakeholder-oriented firms that are concerned with employees and suppliers as well as shareholders compared to shareholder-oriented firms. Societies with stakeholder-oriented firms have higher prices, lower output, and can have greater firm value than shareholder-oriented societies. In some circumstances, firms may voluntarily choose to be stakeholder-oriented because this increases their value. Consumers that prefer to buy from stakeholder firms can also enforce a stakeholder society. With globalization entry by stakeholder firms is relatively more attractive than entry by shareholder firms for all societies. JEL Classification: D02, D21, G34, L13, L2

Political connection heterogeneity and firm value in Vietnam

The observation of firms’ political connections (PCs) in both types of ascribed and acquired PCs has raised the question of their benefits to firms’ operation. Based on 1,365 Vietnamese listed firm-year observations from 2010 to 2014, we find that although firms with both ascribed and acquired PCs have lower firm value (FV) than firms without any PCs, firms with acquired PCs exhibit better FV than those with ascribed PCs. The paper also reveals that concentrated ownership (CO) has a mediation impact on the association between acquired PCs and FV while it can help firms with acquired PCs in improving FV
