Paper 1: Friend or Foe? Institutional Investors and Firm R&D: The Moderating Effect of FemaleExecutives
Abstract: Innovation financing is crucial to the firm’s technological advancement and sustainable development, yet how does institutional investors affect firm innovation behaviors, and the contingent impact of top management team (TMT) diversity on this relationship, are still on debating. Drawing from literature on institutional investors, firm innovation, and the upper echelons theory, we empirically investigate the impact of institutional shareholding on firm’s R&D, and the moderation effect of female executives by employing a multiple panel dataset covering 2,066 China’s A-share listed companies from 2011 to 2019. Results show that 1) introducing institutional investors significantly improves firm’s R&D, while when the shareholding ratio passes a certain point (17.79%), it turns to inhibit R&D, and 2) the presence of women in the TMT mitigates this relationship. Additional analysis finds that 3) the curvilinear impact of institution ownership is consistent regarding on firm’s innovation performance, and furthermore 4) institutions are more effective in stimulating R&D in state-owned enterprises (SOEs) than that of private-owned enterprises (POEs). This study reveals the double-edged sword impact of institutional investors on firm R&D investment, reconciles controversial arguments on their role in corporate management. It also fills the gap between female executives on institutional shareholders and firm’s R&D, providing meaningful context-based evidence for the upper echelons theory and gender research. Practically, this paper suggests that government from emerging markets should continue encouraging institutions to participate in the capital market as a powerful tool to promote innovation and the reform of SOEs, while keep watch its dark side; and firms need to further embrace diversity in strategic management, and leverage the important value of female leadership in utilizing multiple sources for technological innovation.
该论文以机构投资者理论和高阶梯队理论作为理论视角,采用2011至2019年间2066家中国A股上市公司的面板数据,实证探究了机构持股对企业研发的影响以及女性高管的调节效应。研究表明:1)引入机构投资者显著提升了研发投入水平,但当持股比例超过某一值(17.79%)时,机构投资者将抑制研发支出;2)女性在高层管理团队中的存在缓解了这种关系;3)机构所有权与企业创新绩效间也存在倒U关系;4)相比私有企业,在国有企业中,机构所有权能够更有效地影响R&D。本文揭示了机构投资者对企业研发投资的双刃剑效应,回应了相关的研究争议,并为高阶梯队理论和性别研究提供了有意义的经验证据。
Paper 2: Institutional Investors and Corporate Innovation: Executive Pay and Competition as Key Contingencies
Abstract: Innovation financing is crucial to corporate technological development and national innovation construction, yet how does institutional investors affect corporate innovation behaviors, and the contingent impacts of executive remuneration and market competition on this relationship, are still unclear. In this paper, drawing from literature on institutional investors, corporate governance and innovation, we empirically study the impact of institutions on corporate innovation and the moderation effects of executive remuneration and product market competition by employing a multiple panel dataset. Results show that 1) there is an inverted U-shaped relation, instead of a linear one, between institutional shareholding and corporate R&D investment, and 2) executive remuneration and market competition can enhance this correlation. Additional analysis finds that 1) the curvilinear relation remains regarding on innovation performance, and furthermore 2) product market competition has a positive impact on sales costs and marketing activities. This study reveals the double-edged sword impact of institutional ownership on corporate R&D, facilitating in-depth understanding of the role of institutional investors in corporate strategic management. And it fills the gap between executive remuneration and market dynamics on institutions and innovation, providing meaningful practical evidence for relevant theory and fields. Practically, this paper suggests that the government should properly encourage institutions to participate in corporate governance and the reform of development pattern, and firms need to further perfect executive remuneration system and take full advantage of market competition and external dynamics to support technological innovation.
该论文以机构投资者、公司治理和企业创新方面的文献为基础,利用面板数据实证分析了机构持股对企业创新的影响,以及高管货币薪酬和产品市场竞争的调节效应。结果表明:1)机构所有权与企业研发投资间存在倒U型关系,而非线性关系;2)高管薪酬激励和市场竞争能够增强这种关系。进一步研究发现,产品市场竞争对营销活动具有积极影响。本研究有助于深入理解机构投资者在企业战略管理中的作用,为相关理论研究提供了新颖思路。
