讲座主要内容

This paper develops a theoretical model that establishes the interrelationship between the two types of agency costs, reflecting different expropriation preferences of managers and controlling shareholders. We further analyze the impact of agency cost interactions on the volatility of firm value. Then, we empirically test the propositions derived from our model using data on Chinese listed companies. We demonstrate that there exists an asymmetrically negative bi-directional causality between the two types of agency costs. Moreover, the negative interactions are moderated by the closeness of senior managers and board directors, state ownership, and various corporate governance mechanisms, while the moderating effects on contemporary and lagged interactions differ. Importantly, we show that intensified contemporary interactions smooth out the fluctuations of firm value, whereas intensified lagged interactions tend to aggravate the fluctuations of firm value.
