- Abstract
Executive compensation is an important part of the internal governance of commercial banks, and the rationality of the compensation mechanism directly affects the bank’s risk-taking. Based on the panel data of 34 listed small- and medium-sized banks in China from 2012 to 2020, this paper empirically examines the impact and mechanism between executive compensation and the risk-taking level of small- and medium-sized banks. We find that executives’ short-term executive compensation significantly and positively affects the risk-taking level of small- and medium-sized banks, while executives’ long-term executive compensation significantly and negatively affects the risk-taking. Furthermore, considering the specificity of the capital structure of small- and medium-sized banks, we analyse the moderating effect of the capital structure on the above roles and find that there is a partial moderating effect of the capital structure on the relationship between executive short-term compensation and risk-taking in small- and medium-sized banks. This study provides theoretical foundations and countermeasures for improving the executive compensation mechanism and optimising the equity structure to reduce the risk-taking of small- and medium-sized banks and maintain the stability of the financial system.

The mixed ownership reform of China is a kind of further partial privatization for the listed state-owned enterprises (SOEs), and an opportunity for non-state-owned enterprises (non-SOEs) to expand their commerce boundaries. The purpose of this paper is to investigate the effect of heterogeneous blockholders on corporate innovation. Spanning the analysis with listed companies in China from 2007 to 2017, we find that heterogeneous blockholders have a significant positive effect on enterprise innovation. Lowering agency costs and improving corporate innovation efficiency are the two plausible mechanisms. From further research, we find that compared with non-SOEs, the positive effect of heterogeneous blockholders on enterprise innovation is more pronounced for SOEs, and the effect is more positive with the improvement of relative power balance between heterogeneous blockholders. The paper sheds light on the innovation effects of mixed-ownership reform in emerging and transitioning countries. JEL Classification : G32, M13, D23, G34 [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In recent years Taiwan businessmen have constantly come to the mainland of China to invest and open subsidiaries, and the economic and trade relations between the mainland and Taiwan have been closer and a relationship with mutual influence and intergrowth is established between them. Investors from the mainland believe that integrity, supervision and decision, ability of handling emergencies and responsibility of information disclosure are relatively important. In conclusion, the suggested laws and regulations above shall enhance the responsibility of supervision on the independent director system to improve the significance of corporate governance. However, understanding of the people in the mainland of China about laws in Taiwan is far better than that about the legal system in the mainland, and it's hoped that the comparative analysis in this article can make the differences between the mainland and Taiwan clearer.

This paper analyses the ownership structure of foreign affiliates of Spanish firms. In contrast to previous studies on the participation degree, the paper highlights the importance of the previous decision to invest abroad. To do so, an econometric model with a limited dependent variable helps to show that to ignore the previous decision modifies the conclusions of the empirical analyses that raise an empirical model over a sample of firms with foreign affiliates. Additionally, the paper analyses in detail the importance of the cultural and political-legal differences between home and host countries that justify a different type of participation in equity of foreign affiliates. A clear implication for future research in this field is the need to reconsider the econometric approach to include the investment decision. As the paper has shown, a double-hurdle model provides notably different results than the usual approaches, which in this case are closer to the theoretical literature insights.

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to investigate the effect of ISO 14001 certification on US public firms’ equity structure regarding whether the typical heavy investment required for environmental management system is justified in terms of equity risk. Design/methodology/approach – This study employs the event study methodology and examines the pre- and post-movements of firms’ equity structure around the ISO 14001 certification date. This study investigated 5,189 listed firms in the New York Stock Exchange and National Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotation and the abnormal performance of firms’ equity structure was measured by using four dependent variables (assets, liabilities, debt ratio (liabilities/equity), and market-to-book ratio of equity). Findings – The results showed that the adoption of ISO 14001 increased a firm's total assets, liabilities, and debt ratio in the long run, implying that pursuing the certification entails the increase in a firm's size and equity risk. The long-term movement of the market-to-book ratio of equity showed no abnormal performance, while it fluctuated in the short term. Practical implications – This study suggests that managers should consider the potential risk from a firm's equity structure when they decide to pursue the ISO 14001 certification. Originality/value – This study is the first effort to investigate the long-term effect of ISO 14001 certification on the firm's equity structure using the event study methodology in the USA.

Bearing in mind the current instability in the definition of the objectives of a company and the alignment of all members of a company with these objectives, it is fundamental for organizations to have an effective Corporate Governance Model, which maximizes the interests of shareholders. This need for the creation of effectiveness is enhanced in organizations with peculiar equity structures. Thus, this project includes the analysis of some of the key conditions for an effective Corporate Governance and then the study of a particular Portuguese company in the air industry, which has had frequent equity structure changes and is now 50% owned by the state. Therefore, the aim of the project is to identify Corporate Governance trends and relate these trends to the company's equity structure. Through the analysis of relevant documents of the company and some insights of current and past members of the latter, belonging to Governances with different equity structures, it could be concluded that there are no significant differences in the models and procedures adopted within both Governances, mainly due to the fact that the Management of the company was private in both moments. Moreover, it could also be concluded that there still is a long path to be gone through by the company in order to improve its Corporate Governance.

Capital is key to achieve the standardized operation of public&ndash, private partnership (PPP) projects. The capital structure of PPP projects stresses the structure of equity and debt funds, which are important for securing life-cycle ample funds and achieving the expected outcomes of projects. By incorporating sustainability into PPP projects, the capital structure not only secures current needs of funds, it also focuses on life-cycle stable operations and achieves economic, social, and environmental benefits. This study first set the equity&ndash, debt ratio and equity investment ratio of the private sector as the dependent variables and built a selection model of the capital structure of PPP projects from a sustainability perspective using the benefit, cost, and project conditions as core factors based on multi-objective programming and a discounted cash-flow model. Then, the qualitative analysis could be achieved according to the analysis of critical factors that had not been calculated. Afterwards, a selection process which combined the multi-objective programming model with qualitative analysis was proposed to achieve a comprehensive selection of the capital structure of PPP projects from the sustainability perspective. Finally, the process was applied to a real project to verify its rationality and usability. This study not only enriches the theoretical research of PPP projects and provides a new idea on which to build the capital structure selection model, it also proposes a selection process that can provide scientific references for the selection and optimization of the capital structure of PPP projects in practice.

Društva kot najštevilčnejša oblika prostovoljnega povezovanja ljudi so urejena z Zakonom o društvih, v katerem je določena ustanovitev, organizacija, delovanje in prenehanje društva. Društva temeljijo na prostovoljnem članstvu ter na nepridobitnosti namena. Primarni cilj društev ni pridobivanje dobička, pač pa gre za prostovoljno, samostojno in nepridobitno združenje, čigar člani povežejo svoja znanja in izkušnje za doseganje skupnih ciljev, hkrati pa zadovoljujejo tudi širši interes okolja, v katerem delujejo. Športni klubi so v Sloveniji tradicionalno organizirani kot društva, kljub temu da ni nikakršnih pravnih zadržkov, da bi imeli status kakšne druge pravne osebe. Društva predstavljajo za manjše športne klube tudi najlažji način poslovnega vodenja. Vodenje poslovnih knjig in izdaja letnega poročila se usklajuje s slovenskim računovodskim standardom za društva in invalidske organizacije številka 33. Za optimizacijo delovanja športnega kluba je potrebno poznati samo športno dejavnost in pa zakonodajo na tem področju. Le-to določa Zakon o športu. Pri športnih društvih je potrebno nenehno iskanje potencialnih financerjev, saj je od tega odvisen njihov razvoj. Pomembno je, da si društvo zagotovi čim več virov financiranja, saj je na ta način organizacija manj občutljiva na nihanje sredstev iz določenega vira financiranja. Viri financiranja se delijo na lastne vire sredstev, zasebne prispevke ter javna financiranja. Davčne obveznosti društva določajo Zakon o davku od dohodkov pravnih oseb, Zakon o davku na dodano vrednost, Zakon o dohodnini in Zakon o davčnem postopku. Diplomsko delo vse tri temeljne davke predstavlja, usklajuje in optimira. Prav tako je predstavljena davčna optimizacija v primeru profesionalizacije športnega društva. Society, as the most numerous form of voluntary association of people governed by the Zakon o društvih, in which is defined the creation, organization, operation and desistence of the Society. Societies based on voluntary membership and the non-profit purposes. The primary objective is not creation of profit, but it is a voluntary, independent and non-profit association, whose members connect their knowledge and experience to achieve common goals, same time they meet also targets and wider interest of the environment in which they operate. Sports clubs are in Slovenia traditionally organized as a society, despite the fact that there are no legal obstacles that they couldn’t have status of any other legal entity. The Society organization for the smaller sports clubs is the easiest way of business management. Keeping the accounts and issue annual business reports should be adjusted with the Slovenian Accounting Standard for associations and disability organizations number 33. For optimization of operation in the sports club is only necessary to know the sports business and the law in this area. This is defined in Zakon o športu. In sports clubs is necessary of constantly looking for potential funders, because this depends on their development. It is important that the Society gets as much as possible of the different sources of financing, because this way the organization is less sensitive to oscillation of funds from a long term source of funding. Sources of funding are broken down into its own funds, private contributions and public financing. Tax liabilities of clubs provide Zakon o davku od dohodkov pravnih oseb, Zakon o davku na dodano vrednost, Zakon o dohodnini in Zakon o davčnem postopku. My diploma work all three basic taxes: represents, coordinates and optimize. It is also presented tax optimization in case of professionalization of sports clubs.

19. The Design Of Equity Ownership Structure In Inter-Firm Relationships: Do Managers Choose According To Theory?

- Abstract
Theories explaining the equity ownership structure of inter-firm relationships, such as the resource-based view or transaction cost economics, commonly assume a significant role for managerial choice, but this assumption is rarely assessed for its realism. In this study, we use the policy capture methodology to directly assess whether managers choose according to theory (and which theory). In a sample of 66 experienced managers, we find that managerial choices of equity ownership are indeed influenced both by competitive advantage and transaction hazards, though to a greater extent by competitive advantage. Further, only competitive advantage influences managers’ choices about the extent of equity ownership in their partner; transaction hazards motivate the choice of some equity over none. We discuss implications for how inter-firm relationships are and ought to be designed.
