公司治理和财务困境—实证材料来自中国上市公司/董事会结构/会计学外文翻译

公司治理和财务困境

——实证材料来自中国上市公司

摘要:我们调查了在中国经济转型的背景下,公司治理的特点和财务困境风险之间的关系中。抽样了96家财务困难的公司和96家财务状况健康的公司,我们发现,大股东的所有权,国有制,和独立董事的比重是财务困境发生的概率呈负相关的关系。此外,管理代理成本是极不利于公司财务状况的。不过,一定程度的平衡所有权,管理层持股,董事会规模,首席执行官兼任董事长的职务重叠对这种财务困境的发生并没有太大影响。此外,我们还测试了从国有企业重组到国有和非国有所有制控股企业的影响。结果表明,公司治理结构不同对这两种形式的公司财务危机状况的影响也不同了。

自20世纪80年代起,公司治理已成为财务困境研究的实证课题。以往的研究中验证公司治理和公司失败的关系。Chaganti, Mahajan,和Sharma (1985)调查了21家匹配对零售公司。结果表明,董事会比较大的企业更不容易失败。Daily and和Dalton (1994a)研究了五十家破产企业,发现首席执行官职务兼任董事长和较低的董事会独立性与高企业破产率有关系。米勒和巴克( 1997 )用抽样的33匹配的美国公司研究报告说,公司首席执行官兼任董事长和外部人员百分比与周转率成正相关。辛普森和格里森( 1999 )调查287家银行,他们的调查结果显示,首席执行官兼任董事长与较低的财务困境可能性相关。

elloumi和gueyie ( 2001 )研究了46家财务状况正常和46家财务困难的加拿大公司,发现该外部董事和股东的比例与财务困境的发生呈负相关。他们的研究结果还显示,公司外部董事所有权对财政窘迫的概率有负面影响,但外部董事的董事职位,对它有积极的影响。

帕克和霍华德( 2002 )调查了公司治理对企业财务困窘的影响,他们的研究结果表明,那些股东及内部人员持股较高的财务困难企业较容易生存,并且公司总裁的轮换对财务困境公司的生存率有负影响。

Lee 和Yeh (2004)以台湾的上市公司为样本,研究控股股东挪用公司财物的风险与企业财务困境发生率之间的关系,他们证实财务困境的发生与这种挪用直径存在着正相关的关系。

转型经济背景下公司治理对企业经营失败的影响仍然还在研究中。在转轨经济中,公司治理在中国上市公司中展现了一些典型特征,如不平衡的所有制结构,政府的政治干预,内部人控制,不成熟的管理激励与约束机制,缺乏公司控制权的市场等等。血多中国国内研究者从财务角度研究了中国上市公司的财务困境,但是很少有人系统的研究在中国新兴股票市场中公司治理特征和公司财务困境之间的关系。这些公司治理特征是否包含了一些有关企业财务困境风险的重要信息呢?这些特征能否引入模型中用作解释和预测呢?本次研究的目的在于找出公司治理属性,如所有权结构,董事会组成和管理机构的成本等对公司财务困境发生的影响。

我们的文章有两个方面的贡献。第一,我们尝试着对公司治理属性对公司财务困境的作用进行解释和预测。为达到此目的,我们使用了一些以往的研究中很少注意的变数。举例来说,所有制平衡的程度这个指标,是用来衡量最大股东施加给其他大股东压力。管理费用的比例是用来衡量管理代理成本的。第二,我们将样本企业划分为国家控股的公司和非国家控股两种,用来考察国家控制权的作用,然后比较这些属性对这两种形式的上市公司的影响。

中国上市公司的公司治理

在本世纪90年代,随着世界范围内改进公司治理的潮流,中国越来越清楚地认识到公司治理的重要性。中国资本市场,但仍是一个新兴市场,在一个转轨经济的国情中,公司治理在我国上市公司仍处于起步阶段。

我国上市公司公司治理呈现了一些鲜明的特点。其中一个突出的特点就是一股独大和极不均衡的所有制结构。中国公众上市公司股份可分为两类:流通股和

非流通股。流通股可以再市场上自由转让,而非流通股不能。流通股进一步分类为国家法人股、社会法人股、外资股、职工股、发行前首次发行的境内个人股。流通股也可以分为A股、B股和H股。非流通股通常占较大比例的股份。几乎所有的大股东都是非流通股东。截至2002年底,非流通股平均占60.6 %。平均而言,最大的和前五大股东分别拥有43.5 %和58.8 %的公司的股票,而前十名股东只占公司的在外流通股比例的61.4%。在进40%的公司中,第一大股东控制了50%以上的在外流通股。在大约75 %的公司,前五大股东拥有的至少有50 %的公司股份。一股独大和失衡的股权结构,可能造成一些问题,如大股东架空和降低董事会的独立性。在另一方面,可交易A股,持有过于分散。截至2002年底, A股账户总计6700万美元,其中99.5 %是属于个人

投资者,只有0.5 %属于机构投资者。压倒一切优势的绝大多数非流通股,使少数可交易的股东难以积极参与公司治理。他们往往一走了之。平均来说,在2002年,可交易的A股在中国股市的交易率是2.076 ; 换句话说,可交易A 股的平均持有期大约只有5.78个月。

第二个特点是,国有股权招致一些主要国家机构间的矛盾。截至2002年底,70.5 %的上市公司仍保留国有制。国有股权占所有公司股权的32.8 %。对于国有股,最终的股东是人民对中国人民共和国。虽然政府机构持有国有股的控制权,但是分红或收益分配却应提交财政部门。这些政府机构无法从该经公司治理和公司表现中受益。此外,国有企业的风险最终由公共部门和国家承担。在这些条件下,国有控股公司遇到低效的监管机制和道德风险问题就不足为奇了。此外,高层管理人员往往是由党的组织和政府的人事部门事先选定的。随后,董事会就毫无顾忌的比准这项任命。根据这些官僚选拔措施,这些国有企业的管理自然也要追求与政府官员的政治关系,而不是改善性能。

第三个特点是内部人员控制。有几个原因造成这个现象。首先,大比例和过分集中的非流通股阻碍市场对企业的控制。缺乏敌意收购和代理竞赛是其管理固

步自封。第二,由于可交易股东过于分散,外部人员对公司治理缺乏关心而采取吃白食的做法。监管不足,外部股东往往会产生内幕交易。第三,任人和管理的评价往往是取决于控股股东,因而可能造成寻租行为以及控股股东和管理层之间相互勾结。第四,在中国的公司中经理层持股是非常低的。在2002年经理、董事和监事的平均持股比例是0.000794 %,在2001年和0.00251 %。既没有长远的,公平为基础的方案也没有以表现为基础的补偿方案被广泛付诸实践。奖励对准股东和管理是不够的,这样会导致一些不道德和机会主义行为。

最后,但并非最不重要的,新兴市场缺乏退出机制。破产法滞后,债权人的权利和利益没有得到妥善的保障。甚至没有已不适合于上市公司破产的法律。到现在为止,在中国没有一个上市公司已经破产,虽然一些上市公司的财务状况已是毫无指望。此外,为了避免造成投资者心理的巨大冲击和市场参与者各方面的利益,监管当局在建立退市法律方面一直持审慎态度。

样本的选取和理论基础

样本的选取

上海证券交易所(上交所)和深圳证券交易所(深交所)在股票上市规则(2001)中是这样定义财务困境的:异常的财务状况. 在1998年,中国证券监督管理委员会(证监会)开始对上市公司存在"不正常的财务状况"或"其他情况异常"实施"特殊待遇" ( St )。ST公司的每日股票价格波动局限在5 %以内。股票上市规则明确规定,如果有下列情形之一,认为上市公司存在"异常的财务情况" :

1 )在过去两年中公司纯利润均为负的。

2)在过去一年中每股的资产净值低于每股面值的股票;

3 )最后一年事务所审计对财务报告提交了一份否定意见或保留意见;

4 )在过去一年中,由审计师和有关部门认定的股权公允价值低于注册资本;5)由证监会、上交所或者深交所认定的其他财务状况异常的情况。

我们专注于"异常的财务状况"的标准,而不是说拖欠债务的义务,因为在中国信贷和债券市场中,债权人权利并没有给予很好的保护并且债务人被债权人的软预算约束所遮蔽。在此背景下,我们使用由证监会制定的财务困境的定义与标准。

在我们的研究中包含的的样本是那些在2002和2003年遇到财务困境的公司及其配套公司。数据都是来自于中国研究中心经济学研究所( ccer )的数据库。按一下两点要求选怎配对样本:(1)选择那些与前一年发生了财务困难的标准产业分类四位代码一样的公司。(2)在满足第一个条件的前提下,找一家公司排名最接近该财务困难公司近3年平均总资产的公司。

漏报一个其销售额相当于零的困境公司,(有些独立变量是无法计算,如果销售为零),最后样本由97家财务状况困窘公司连同97财务健全的公司组成。

理论基础

我们用二元逻辑分析测试企业管治对财务困境风险的影响。采用变量1代表财务困难公司,0代表财务健全公司。收集到一年前发生财务困境的数据。在换句话说,回归模型是建立在一个落后的独立变数上的。为了验证分类结果,我们运用"刀切"的方法。

要素与假设

所有权结构

股权集中度

学术界对股权集中度有两种不同的观点:限制吃白食和挪用。格罗斯曼和哈特( 1980 )认为,广泛分散的所有权激励经理人采取吃白食的方式。Shleifer 和vishny ( 1986 )指出,当大股东们有足够的所有权来控制监察经理人时,大股东是有利于吃白食问题的。在另一方面,Shleifer和vishny ( 1997 )也指出如果股权集中度超过某一值时,大股东倾向于追求私人利益,无视小股东的利益。La Porta (2000) and Claessens (2002)等人支持征用的观点。

已有证据实证股权集中度对公司的失败的影响。Elloumi 和Gueyie (2001)、Parker 和Howard(2002) 发现,有大股东的公司更有可能摆脱财政困难。不过,Lee and Yeh( 2004 )发现,财务困境的风险与控股股东的征用是呈正相关。至于中国的股份公司,徐和王( 1997 )报告中指出,产权集中与一家公司的业绩之间的关系是显正相关的。不过,目前还不清楚股权集中度是如何影响我国上市公司的财务困境的。在这里,我们使用比值来衡量股权集中度:最大的股东所持股份(%)作为衡量最大的股东持有的股份的百分比和前五大股东所持股份(%)作为衡量由前五大股东股份总和的百分比。此外,基于上述论点,我们可以推断,在多数情况下,公司主要是由最大的股东控制,因为他们有庞大股权(平均近44 %)。同时一些研究表明,从其他大股东能产生制衡权力监管控股股东。衡量限制大股东中,我们使用公司前五股东持股比例除以最大股东持股比例的比率作为衡量所有权平衡的程度。

国有制

一些研究表明,国家控股将给企业带来效率。比如, Shleifer 和Vishny (1994) ,Boycko,,Shleifer, 和Vishny(1996)都表示政客们为了达到政治目标利用补贴和受贿将会给公司经营带来不利影响。而私有化会增加他们的成本,从而导致出现有效率的公司。La Porta 和Lopez-de-Silanes (1999)表示民营化可以改善盈利能力,虽然它可能造成社会的损失。然而,Anderson, Lee, 和Murrell (2000)发现蒙古的新私有化企业中,那些保留了国有制的企业比其他的更有效率,因为政府正致力于提高办事效率。

对于中国上市公司而言,我们猜想政府机构间的问题,导致了有关国企业绩下滑。Xu 和Wang(1997)、Wei 和Varela (2003)的实证表明国有股的比例与这家公司的业绩是负相关的。但是,国家控股公司往往背负的公共责任,如促进就业和保留经济稳定。由于财务危机的不利影响可能会损害国企的公共职能,政府是不可能无视这些公司困难的。他们就会执行一些行政手段和政治干预以阻止这些问题国企出现财务危机。此外,那些委派的国企管理者为了抱住他们的政治前途,将会与这种困难作斗争。亏损企业仍能生存,这在中国国有和国有控股

企业中并不是一个奇怪现象。综上述,我们认为国有制与财务危发生的概率是负相关的。国家所有制(%),是衡量国家所有股份的比例的。

经理层持股

治理—收益假说(Jensen 和Meckling 1976),中立假说(Demsetz 1983),守旧假说(Shleifer 和Vishny 1989)代表了目前经理层持股对公司治理的影响的几种观点。一些实证调查还显示了,经理层持股和企业经营失败的风险之间不和谐的关系的结论(比如, Parker and Howard 2002;Simpson and Gleason 1999;Teall 1993).

我国公司法规定,董事,监事,经理人在其任职期间是禁止转让其股份的。因此,对公司持有股份的管理层来说,是不容易提前退出公司财务危机的。但它仍然不能确定经理层持股是如何对财务困境产生影响的。经理层持股,是衡量经理人,董事,及监事持有股份比例的。

董事会的组成和结构

董事会规模

从董事会监督职能的角度来看,Chaganti, Mahajan, and Sharma (1985)表示规模较大的董事会更难协调,这样会给让经理人更多的回旋余地追求其个人目标。yermack ( 1996 ),也提供证据表明董事会规模较小的公司在财务方面执行得更有效,以及在这些公司中的CEO由于补偿和被解雇的威胁,工作更有干劲。一些研究者研究董事会的战略功能。Judge and Zeithaml (1992)报告显示,董事会规模和多样性与其参与公司战略决策负相关,另外,董事会的参与良好的财务有一定的影响。Goodstein, Gautam, and Boeker (1994)却争辩说但公司所处环境改变时,一个大且复杂多样的董事会将会限制公司战略转变的效力。但是,资源依赖理论认为,增加董事会规模和多样化,可以有利于企业扩大与之相关的外部环境,并提供更多的急需资源(Pearce and Zahra 1992; Pfeffer 1972)。我们用董事会成员衡量董事会规模。考虑到董事会的监察和战略功能,我们认为一个大的董事会更容易导致财务危机。

董事长兼任首席执行官

一些研究者认为,公司首席执行官的职务应该与董事长分离开来,因为这两个职务重叠将会降低董事会的独立性,削弱董事会的监察效力,增加了首席执行官的自我包庇能力(Baysinger

and Hoskisson 1990; Rechner and Dalton 1991; Jensen 1993)。在另一方面,倡议者认为到首席执行官职务重叠将加强内部领导,实现指挥系统的统一,并避免行政总裁及董事局主席的冲突(Davis,Schoorman, and Donaldson 1997; Donaldson and Davis 1991)。在这个问题上的实证结果意见不一。Daily and Dalton (1994b)用证据表明首席执行官职务重叠与企业破产呈正相关。Simpson and Gleason (1999)却认为CEO与董事会主席有同一个人担任会减小财务危机的发生概率。然而,又Chaganti, Mahajan, and Sharma (1985)认为CEO职务重叠与公司破产没关系。考虑到CEO 的决策和风险承担职能,我们假定其职务与董事长分离将有利于减低公司发生财务危机的风险。

独立董事

根据监事会的规定,独立董事不得在他们人之的上市公司担任任何行政职务。同时,为了维护他们行事的独立性和客观性,他们也不能与公司有任何业务往来或者与公司主要股东有任何关系。此外,独立董事不得直接或间接持有超过上市公司总数的1 %的股份。代理理论认为从管理中独立开来是董事会监督职能的一个关键点(Fama 1980; Fama and Jensen 1983; Jensen 1993).。独立董事承担着监督和评价公司管理活动的职责(Jensen and Meckling 1976)。反过来说,管理霸权理论认为,由于管理被统治,非执行董事在公司决策中的作用是有限的(Westphal and Fredrickson 2001)。其他研究人员指出,外部董事不具备公司和行业专门知识或经验,以履行好其职责(Baysinger and Hoskisson 1990; Estes 1980)。现有的观点不统一。Chaganti, Mahajan, and Sharma (1985) and Simpson and Gleason (1999)认为内部和外部董事的比例与公司经营失败没关系。elloumi和gueyie ( 2001年)的结果表明那些发生财务危机的公司的董事会只有少量的外部人员。由于独立董事代表着或大或小的管理约束,在这里,我们假定独立董事的比重与财务困境呈负相关。

管理代理成本

根据Jensen and Meckling (1976)的代理理论,管理代理成本随着公司所有权和经营权的分离而增加。作为股东的管理代理人更倾向于浪费公司资源来满足他的盈利目的。现有文献中使用销售费用,一般性及行政的开支作为直接代理成本。在这里我们将管理费用作为代理成本。在中国一般会计准则中费用支出,包括管理,销售,财务费用。管理费用包括管理层的工资、日常行政开支、差旅费、接待费、会议开支、福利开支及其他在公司经营中管理层的支出。人们普遍认为,在中国的公司中管理团队管理费用甚至其中汽车,聚餐,旅游,奢侈办公设施,和娱乐。因此,管理费用可以被认为是一个隐蔽的分配公司资源的行为。为了控制企业的规模和产出,我们用销售来规范管理费用。我们认为,管理代理成本增加了财务困境的可能性,因为首先,就业福利导致公司资源的减缩; 第二,更高的管理决策权,在相当大的程度上,增加了与更多机构间的冲突(Singh and Davidson 2003),以及足监督的难度(Ang, Cole, and Lin 2000).。

研究模型

我们使用下列Logistic回归模型来检验假设关系:

Logit Pi = α0+ α1Financial leverage i+ α2Liquidity i+ α3Annual CARsi + α4 Governance attribute i+ εi

假设pi=p(i=1)表示第i个公司发生财务危机的概率。Governance attributei 则是描述第i个公司一个治理变数,在模型中,我们使用财务杠杆,流动性,及每年累积异常报酬作为控制变量。财务杠杆是公司总负债与总资产的比例,流动资金比率是流动资产与流动负债的比例。它们被用来控制一个公司的财务状况。我们还利用每年累积异常报酬,以反映一些具体的资料,涉及可反映在市场上的评价与期待的公司的战略决策或工作表现。年累计异常报酬:

ARi,t = Ri,t – Rm,t ,

Ri,t =第i个公司在第t天的股票收益率

Rm,t =第t天上证股指/深证股指;N是一年中总的交易天数。

结论

至今很少有研究公司治理特征和中国的企业财务困境的关系。这篇文章就是其中的第一个调查在中国的过渡经济的背景下,治理结构和管理代理成本属性是否有助于解释财务困境的发生。

我们的研究结果显示,大股东的所有权和国家所有权财务危机的概率有负面影响。经理层持股似乎与财务危机无关。独立董事的比重是一个重要因素,较高比例的独立董事,可能会导致

以低概率的财务困境。不过,其他两个董事会组成变数——董事会规模和首席执行官职务重叠就不那么重要了。

我们特别调查管理代理成本对财务困境的风险的影响。管理费用率作为衡量管理代理成本的指标,与财务危机发生的概率正相关,就是说管理代理问题确实在损害公司的财务状况。

此外,我们还调查国家控股和非国有控股的公司治理的不同。我们发现,这两种所有制形式下的公司所有制结构,董事会构成,管理代理成本等属性对公司治理影响不同。

现在正当中国在大力倡导公司治理改革,我们的研究在公司治理对公司财务健康的作用提供了一些启示。然而,有些问题仍需进一步研究。比如,中国上市公司的大股东利用各种隐秘技术侵吞公司资金。在许多情况下,他们与上市公司进行不公平的价格的关联方交易。他们还经常持有公司资产质押贷款。进一步的研究,要着重征用土地的行为对企业财务的困扰影响。

Corporate Governance and Financial

Distress

Evidence from Chinese Listed Companies

Abstract: We investigate the relationship between corporate governance characteristics and the risk of financial distress in the context of the Chinese transitional economy. Using a sample of ninety-six financially distressed companies and ninety six healthy companies, we find that large shareholder ownership, state ownership, and the proportion of independent directors are negatively associated with the probability of distress. Additionally, managerial agency costs are badly detrimental to a company’s financial status. However, the degree of balanced ownership, managerial ownership, board size, and CEO duality do not significantly affect the probability of default. Furthermore, we test the influence of state-controlling right by subgrouping the sample into state-controlled and non–state-controlled companies .The results indicate that

corporate-governance attributes act differently on the status of financial distress between the two subsamples.Corporate governance has been an empirical topic in the study of financial distress。

Since the 1980s. Previous studies validate the relationship between corporate governance and corporate failure. Chaganti, Mahajan, and Sharma (1985) investigated twenty-one matched pairs of retail companies. The results showed that companies with larger boards are less likely to fail. Daily and Dalton (1994a) studied fifty matched pairs of bankrupt companies and found that CEO duality and lower independence of directors are associated with higher probability of bankruptcy. Mueller and Barker (1997) report that CEO duality and the percentage of outsiders are positively related to turnarounds using a sample of thirty-three matched pairs of U.S. companies. Simpson and Gleason (1999) surveyed 287 banking firms and their findings show that CEO duality is associated with lower likelihood of financial distress.

Elloumi and Gueyie (2001) examined forty-six healthy and forty-six distressed Canadian companies and found that the proportion of outside directors and blockholders’ ownership are negatively related to financial distress. Their findings also suggest that the outside director’s ownership has a negative effect on the probability of financial distress, but the outside director’s directorship has a positive affect.

Parker and Howard (2002) investigated the impact of corporate governance attributes on the survival of distressed firms. Their findings show that distressed firms whose blockholder and insider ownership are higher are more likely to survive, and CEO turnover has a negative impact on the likelihood of survival.

Lee and Yeh (2004) test the relationship between the risk of wealth expropriation by the controlling shareholders and the probability of financial distress using a sample of firms listed in Taiwan. Their evidence reveals a positive relationship between the risk of financial distress and this type of expropriation.

The impact of corporate governance on corporate failure in the context of the transitional economy, however, is still underexamined. In the transitional economy, corporate governance in Chinese listed companies exhibits some typical features such as excessive uneven ownership

structure, government political intervention, insider control, immaturity of managerial incentives and constraints, lack of the market for corporate control, and so on. Many Chinese domestic researchers have studied the financial distress of Chinese listed companies from financial perspectives, but few studies test systematically the association between corporate governance characteristics and corporate financial distress in the emerging Chinese stock market. Do these corporate governance characteristics contain some important information related to the risk of financial distress? Can the introduction of these characteristics add to the explanatory and predictive power of the models? The aim of this study to find out how financial distress in Chinese listed companies is influenced by governance attributes, such as ownership structure, board composition, and managerial agency costs.

The contribution of our article has two aspects. First, we test the explanatory and predicative power of some corporate governance attributes for Chinese listed companies’ financial distress. For this purpose, we use some variables to which previous studies gave little attention. For example, the indicator of degree of ownership balance is designed to measure the counterweighing power being imposed on the largest shareholder by the other large shareholders. Also, the administrative expense ratio is introduced to serve as the measure of managerial agency costs. Second, we examine the role of state controlling right by classifying the sample into

state-controlled companies and non–state-controlled companies, and then comparing the effects of these attributes between two different subsamples.

Corporate Governance in Chinese Listed Companies

During the 1990s, along with the worldwide tide of improvement in corporate governance, China increasingly recognized the importance of corporate governance. The Chinese capital market, however, is still an emerging one, and under the conditions of a transitional economy, corporate governance in Chinese listed companies is still in its infancy.

There are some distinctive characteristics in Chinese listed compan ies’ corporate governance. One prominent characteristic is the separate and extremely uneven ownership structure. Shares in Chinese public-listed companies are classified into two categories: tradable shares and nontradable shares. The tradable shares can be traded on the Chinese exchanges, while the nontradable shares are not allowed to transfer in the stock markets. The tradable shares are further grouped into state shares, domestic founder shares, foreign founder shares, employee shares, and legal person shares issued before an initial public offering (IPO). Tradable shares can be separated into A shares, B shares, and H shares. Nontradable shares take up a large proportion of outstanding shares. Almost all of the large shareholders are nontradable shareholders. At the end of 2002, the average nontradable shares accounted for 60.6 percent. On average, the top one and top five shareholders owned 43.5 percent and 58.8 percent of their company’s shares, respectively, while top-ten shareholders just owned 61.4 percent of the company’s outstanding shares. In nearly 40 percent of all the companies, the top shareholder controlled above 50 percent of the outstanding shares; in around 75 percent of all the companies, the top five shareholders owned at least 50 percent of the companies’ shares.1 The separate and uneven ownership structure may cause some problems, such as large shareholder expropriation and lower independence of the board. On the other hand, the tradable A shares held are overly dispersed. At the end of 2002, the number of A-share accounts totaled 67 million, of which 99.5 percent belonged to individual investors and only 0.5 percent belonged to institutional investors.2 The overwhelming majority of nontradable shares make it difficult for minority tradable shareholders to take an active part in corporate governance. They

tend to vote with their feet. On average, the turnover rate3 of the tradable A stocks listed on the Chinese exchanges was 2.076 in 2002; in other words, the average holding period of the atradable stock was only about 5.78 months.

A second characteristic is that state shareholding incurs some principal-agency problems. At the end of 2002, 70.5 percent of all the listed companies still retained residual state ownership. The average percentage of state shareholding for all the companies was 32.8 percent. For state shares, the ultimate shareholders are the people of the People’s Republic of China. Although the government agencies hold the control rights of the state shares, the dividends or gains distributed to these shares should be submitted to finance departments. The government agencies cannot benefit from improvement in corporate governance and the companies’ performance. Moreover, the risk residual of state shares is ultimately born by the public or the state. Under these conditions, it is not surprising that state-owned companies should encounter inefficient monitoring mechanisms and moral hazard problems

(Lin 2001). Moreover, top management is often selected beforehand by the party organization and the government’s personnel department. The board then rubber-stamps the appointment. Under these bureaucratic selection measures, the management of the state shareholding companies naturally pursues a political relationship with government officials rather than improvement in performance.

The third characteristic of corporate governance is the problem of insider control. There are a few causes for this phenomenon. First, a large proportion and excessive concentration of nontradable shareholdings impede the emergence of the market for corporate control. The lack of both hostile takeover and proxy contests facilitates management entrenchment. Second, due to the widely dispersed tradable shareholders, outside tradable shareholders have an incentive to take a free ride. Insufficient monitoring from outside shareholders tends to engender insider discretion. Third, the appointment and evaluation of management are often determined by the controlling shareholders, which may result in rent-seeking behaviorand collusion between the controlling shareholders and management. Fourth, in Chinese companies, managerial ownership is extraordinarily low. The average proportion of ownership in the hands of management, directors, and supervisors was 0.000794 percent in 2001 and 0.00251 percent in 2002. Neither long-term, equity-based programs nor performance-based compensation programs are widely put into practice. The incentive alignment between the shareholders and management is inadequate, which consequently invites some immoral and opportunistic behavior.

Last, but not least, the emerging market lacks an exit mechanism. Legislative action on the Bankruptcy Law is lagging behind. Creditors’ rights and interests are not properly safeguarded. There is not even a law that applies to the bankruptcy of listed companies. Up to now, none of the listed companies has gone bankrupt in China, though the financial status of some of the listed companies is totally hopeless. In addition, in order to avoid causing enormous shock to investor psychology and to shelter the interests of various market participants, the regulatory authorities have always been cautious in establishing delisting constitution. As a matter of fact, the de facto delisting measures were not taken until February 2001,4 nearly ten years after the establishment of stock exchanges in China.

Sample Selection and Methodology

Sample Selection

The definition of financial distress is “abnormality of financial situation” as defined in the Stock

Listing Rule (2001) of the Shanghai Stock Exchange (SHSE) and Shenzhen Stock Exchange (SZSE). In 1998, the China Securities Regulatory Commission (CSRC) began to execute “special treatment” (ST) on listed companies that suffered from an “abnormal financial situation” or “other sit uation abnormality.” The daily stock-price fluctuation of ST companies is confined within 5 percent. The Stock Listing Rule specified that if one of the following situations occurs, the listed company is classified as encountering an “abnormality of financ ial situation”:

1) the net profits in the last two years were negative;

2) the value of the net worth per share was less than the face value of the stock in the last year;

3) the auditor presented an adverse opinion or a disclaimer opinion on the financial report of the last year;

4) the value of the equity ownership recognized by the auditor and the departments concerned was less than the value of registered capital in the last year; and

5) other financial situation abnormality judged by CSRC, or SHSE and SZSE.

We focus on the standard of “abnormality of financial situation” instead of that of default on debt obligation because in the Chinese credit and bond market, creditors’ rights are not given good protection and the debtors are often shielded by the soft budget constraint of the creditors.5 In this context, we use the definition of financial distress consistent with the criteria formulated by the CSRC.

The sample in our study consists of the companies that encountered financial distress in 2002 and 2003, in combination with their matching companies. The sources of the data were derived from the China Center for Economics Research (CCER) Database. The matching samples were chosen in order following two requirements: (1) selecting companies whose first two of the principal four-digit

Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) code is the same as that of the distressed company for the year prior to financial distress; and (2) under the condition that the first requirement is satisfied, finding a company that ranks closest to the distressed company in average total assets of the last three years prior to financial distress. By omitting one distressed company whose sales equaled zero (some independent variables are unable to be calculated, if the sales equal zero), the final sample consisted of ninety-seven financially distressed companies, together with ninety-seven matching healthy companies.

Methodology

We use binary logistic analysis to test the impact of corporate governance attributes

on the risk of financial distress. The dependant variable equals one for the distressed companies and zero for the healthy companies. The data are collected oneyear prior to the occurrence of financial distress. In other words, the regression

models are established with one-lagged independent variables. In order to validate

the classification results, we employ the “jackknife” method.6

Proxies and Hypothesis Development

Ownership Structure

Ownership Concentration

There are two different views in the literature on the roles of ownership concentration: restriction on free ride and expropriation. Grossman and Hart (1980) argue that widely dispersed ownership motivates shareholders to take a free ride on the improvements generated by the raiders. Shleifer and Vishny (1986) note that large shareholders will have incentives to monitor the managers

when they have enough ownership control, and the existence of large shareholders is helpful in alleviating the free-ride problem. On the other hand, Shleifer and Vishny (1997) also point out that if the ownership concentration exceeds a certain threshold, large shareholders are inclined to pursue private benefits disregarding the interest of minority shareholders. The viewpoint of expropriation is also supported by La Porta et al. (2000) and Claessens et al. (2002).

There has been empirical evidence concerning the effect of ownership concentration on corporate failure. Elloumi and Gueyie (2001) and Parker and Howard (2002) find that firms with larger blockholder ownership are more likely to get over financial difficulties. However, Lee and Yeh (2004) find that the risk of financial distress is positively associated with expropriation by the controlling shareholders. As for Chinese stock companies, Xu and Wang (1997) report that the relation ship between ownership concentration and a firm’s performance is significantly positive. However, it is still unclear how ownership concentration affects Chinese listed companies’ financial distress. Here we use two concentration ratios to measure ownership concentration: the largest shareholders’ ownership (percent) measured as the percentage of shares held by largest shareholders and the top five shareholders’ ownership (percent) measured as the sum of percentage of shares held by the top five shareholders.

Furthermore, based on the above arguments, we infer that in most cases the companies are dominated by the largest shareholders because of their excessively large shareholding (nearly 44 percent on average). As some studies suggest, the counterweight power from other large shareholders can generate a mechanism to monitor the controlling shareholder and mitigate diversion (La Porta et al. 2000; Pagano and Roel 1998; Bennedsen and Wolfenzon 2000). To capture the restriction on the largest shareholder, we use the percentage of shares held by the top five shareholders divided by the percentage of shares held by the largest shareholders as the measure of the degree of ownership balance.

State Ownership

Some researchers have proven that withdrawal of state shares brings about efficiency. For example, Shleifer and Vishny (1994) and Boycko, Shleifer, and Vishny (1996) show that politicians use subsidies and bribes to influence state firms in order to realize political objectives that may conflict with the firms’ operating efficiency. Privatization increases their cost for this influence and then leads to an efficient restructuring of these firms. La Porta and Lopez-de-Silanes (1999) show that privatization can bring about improvement of profitability, although it may cause social losses. Conversely, Anderson, Lee, and Murrell (2000) find that among Mongolia’s newly privatized enterprises, those with residual state ownership prove more efficient than the others, because the government is subject to the pressure of improving efficiency.

Regarding Chinese listed companies, we conjecture that the principal-agency problem related to state shareholding leads to performance decline. Xu and Wang (1997) and Wei and Varela (2003) present empirical results to show that the proportion of state shares is negatively related to Chinese firms’ performance. However, state shareholding companies are often burdened with public responsibilities, such as promoting employment and retaining economic stability. As the adverse impacts of fi nancial distress may impair the state shareholding companies’ public function, the government is unlikely to disregard these companies undergoing distress. Some administrative control and political intervention must be executed to hinder the problematic companies from getting into distress. In addition, the managers of state shareholding companies, who were practically selected in a bureaucratic way, will struggle against distress so as to protect

Because efficiency and maneuverability are higher than traditional machines, industrial robot is used extensively in industry. For the sake of efficiency and maneuverability, reducing mass and increasing stiffness is more important than traditional machines, in structure design of industrial robot. A lot of methods are used in optimization design of structure. Finite element method is a much effective method. In general, modeling and modifying are manual, which is feasible when model is simple. When model is complicated, optimization time is longer. In the longer optimization time, calculation time is usually very little, a majority of time is used for modeling and modifying. It is key of improving efficiency of structure optimization how to reduce modeling and modifying time. APDL language is an interactive development tool, which is based on ANSYS and is offered to program users. APDL language has typical function of some large computer languages. For example, parameter definition similar to constant and variable definition, branch and loop control, and macro call similar to function and subroutine call, etc. Besides these, it possesses powerful capability of mathematical calculation. The capability of mathematical calculation includes arithmetic calculation, comparison, rounding, and trigonometric function, exponential function and hyperbola function of standard FORTRAN language, etc. By means of APDL language, the data can be read and then calculated, which is in database of ANSYS program, and running process of ANSYS program can be controlled.

供应商质量管理文献翻译(外文翻译-中英对照)

互利共赢的供应商质量控制 前言 近年来,随着对供应链的重视,供应商管理正逐渐成为企业和学术界的关注对象,IS09000族标准以及QS 9000标准都对供应商的管理提出了相应的要求,与供应商管理有关的研究成果正逐渐增多,一些软件巨头也推出了供应商关系管理的软件,但是在这些研究成果和应用软件中,涉及到的供应商质量控制的内容只是一些最基本的要求,而供应商质量控制恰恰是供应商管理的最基本、最重要的内容。另一方而,质量管理界对质量控制的研究取得了大量的成果,遗憾的是这些成果大多依然局限于企业的内部控制,仅仅研究从企业内部各环节如何改善产品的质量,而基于供应链的角度来研究质量控制的成果尚不多见。因此,系统地研究经济全球化形势下供应商质量控制的理论与方法,将有助于推动我国企业产品质量的快速提高和供应链竞争优势的形成与巩固。 1、质量与企业共存 质量一直是一个随着时代的变化而不断变化的概念,人们对质量的认识也往往因关注点不同而有所不同。如,早在1908年,通用汽车公司的工程师们在皇家汽车俱乐部会员们的面前拆解了3辆凯迪拉克轿车,并把这些零件混在一起,而后从中选择零件重新组装成车,然后驾车绝尘而去。这令在场的会员极为震惊,认为凯迪拉克车质量之高令人惊叹。显然在当时,汽车零件具有互换性是一种了不起的质量特性,这也是福特公司的N型车和T型车取得辉煌成功的重要原因.时至今日,即使农用三轮车的零部件也具有极高的互换性,零部件的标准化和互换性已经是理所当然的事情,不再是吸引顾客的重要质量特性.可见质量的内涵是不断变化的.那么究竟什么是质量呢? (1)市场竟争就是企业间对“顾客”的争夺,在日益激烈的“顾客"争夺战中,质量、价格、交付(交付日期、方式和手段)和服务是企业常用的四个法宝,其中质量是根本,离开质量其他三项将变得毫无意义,因此可以说质量己成为市场竞争的焦点.它反映了产品是否能够反映顾客需求、能否满足顾客需求,从面决定了产品的市场前途。有鉴于此,质量己成为一项全球性运动,世界上所有优秀企业无一不把质量作为企业战略的关键内容,从战略的角度来规划质量。 (2)对于企业经营者来说,认识到质量对企业的重要意义只是经营企业的第一步,重要的是如何利用科学的方法来保证产品和服务的质量,使顾客满意,来保证过程和工作的质量来获互利共炭的供应商质量控制得良好的业绩。 众所周知,企业管理是社会生产力发展到一定程度的历史产物,质量管理作为企业管理的组成部分,同样也是社会发展的客观要求,特别是顾客处于主导地位的今天,要使顾客满意,就必须有过硬的产品质量和服务质量,这就要求企业积极推行先进的质量管理理论与方法,不断进行质量管理创新. 2、企业与供应商质量控制 随着生产社会化的不断发展,企业的生产活动分工越来越细,专业化程度越来越强,促使生产技术水平越来越高,产品质量得到大幅度改善。通常,某一产品不可能由一个企业从最初的原材料开始加工直至形成顾客最终使用的产品,往往是通过多个企业分工协作来完成.另外,先进生产方式的广泛应用,如准时生产、敏捷制造、零库存等,使企业与供应商的关系愈加紧密,企业与供应商的关系也由单纯的买卖关系向互利共底的合作关系演变。 ISO 9000族标准自1987年诞生以来受到了世界各国的一致追捧,全球约50多万家企业通过ISO9001质量管理体系认证足以说明这套管理标准在引领国际管理潮流方面的巨大成功。在备受企业欢迎的新版标准ISO9000:2000中,互利的供应商关系被作为八项质量管理原则之一,充分体现了供应商关系管理在企业经营实践中的作用和价值。企业要贯彻这一原则,就必须

质量管理文献综述

关于企业质量管理文献综述 摘要:随着新世纪的到来,特别是我国加入WTO后,中国将进一步融入世界经济的主流,质量将成为我国广大企业抓住机遇、迎接严峻挑战的关键。要拓展海外市场,必须靠有竞争力的质量;要保护国内的市场,不再有高关税和政府的过渡保护,也要靠质量的较量。随着科学技术的进步,质量管理的理论和方法有了更大发展。本文综合了质量管理的发展历程,并简要评价,提出看法,以便为企业的质量管理和理论研究提供参考。 关键词:质量管理、管理改进 21世纪是质量的世纪”。随着经济全球化和信息革命的迅猛发展,竞争日益加剧。在“数量”问题已解决的今天,人们将越来越追求和依赖于高质量的产品和服务,而且质量的领域不断拓宽,生活的质量、环境的质量、文化的质量、经济增长的质量更加受到全社会的关注。质量已成为竞争的焦点,不仅关系到企业的生存发展,而且影响到国家经济实力的增强和民族的形象。质量已成为全球经济发展战略的核心问题。 一、质量管理理论的回顾 (一)、质量管理的发展阶段 (1)质量检验阶段(20世纪20-30年代) 生产力迅猛发展,生产过程分工细化、日益复杂,许多美国企业按照泰勒的管理模式,纷纷设立检验部门,使检验与生产分离开来,其最大特点为“事后把关”。(2)统计质量阶段(20世纪40-50年代) 早在20世纪20年代,美国贝尔实验室工程师休哈特就提出“控制与预防缺陷”的概念。主要是利用数理统计原理,预防产生废品并检验产品质量,在方式上由专业质量控制工程师和技术人员承担。但这种方法只是保证生产过程中的产品质量,而不能提高产品本身的质量。 (3)全面质量管理阶段(20世纪60年代至今) 美国的费根堡姆提出,“全面质量是为了能够在最经济的水平上,并考虑到充分满足顾客要求的条件下进行生产和提供服务,将企业各部门研制质量、维持质量和提高质量的活动构成为一体的一种有效体系”。 (二)、质量管理的理论流派 1、事后检验 20世纪,美国工程师泰勒提出“科学管理理论”,1911 年泰勒出版了专

技术(EDGE)从第二代GSM标准到UNTS的迁移,如图。这是一个广泛应用的基本原理,因为自2003年4月起,全球有超过847万GSM用户,占全球的移动用户数字的68%。重点是在保持尽可能多的GSM网络与新系统的操作。 我们现在在第三代(3G)的发展道路上,其中网络将支持所有类型的流量:语音,视频和数据,我们应该看到一个最终的爆炸在移动设备上的可用服务。此驱动技术是IP协议。现在,许多移动运营商在简称为2.5G的位置,伴随GPRS的部署,即将IP骨干网引入到移动核心网。在下图中,图2显示了一个在GPRS网络中的关键部件的概述,以及它是如何适应现有的GSM基础设施。 SGSN和GGSN之间的接口被称为Gn接口和使用GPRS隧道协议(GTP的,稍后讨论)。引进这种基础设施的首要原因是提供连接到外部分组网络如,Internet或企业Intranet。这使IP协议作为SGSN和GGSN之间的运输工具应用到网络。这使得数据服务,如移动设备上的电子邮件或浏览网页,用户被起诉基于数据流量,而不是时间连接基础上的数据量。3G网络和服务交付的主要标准是通用移动通信系统,或UMTS。首次部署的UMTS是发行'99架构,在下面的图3所示。 在这个网络中,主要的变化是在无线接入网络(RAN的)CDMA空中接口技术的引进,和在传输部分异步传输模式作为一种传输方式。这些变化已经引入,主要是为了支持在同一网络上的语音,视频和数据服务的运输。核心网络保持相对不变,主要是软件升级。然而,随着目前无线网络控制器使用IP与3G的GPRS业务支持节点进行通信,IP协议进一步应用到网络。 未来的进化步骤是第4版架构,如图4。在这里,GSM的核心被以语音IP技术为基础的IP网络基础设施取代。 海安的发展分为两个独立部分:媒体网关(MGW)和MSC服务器(MSS)的。这基本上是打破外连接的作用和连接控制。一个MSS可以处理多个MGW,使网络更具有扩展性。 因为现在有一些在3G网络的IP云,合并这些到一个IP或IP/ ATM骨干网是很有意义的(它很可能会提供两种选择运营商)。这使IP权利拓展到整个网络,一直到BTS(基站收发信台)。这被称为全IP网络,或推出五架构,如图五所示。在HLR/ VLR/VLR/EIR被推广和称为HLR的子系统(HSS)。 现在传统的电信交换的最后残余被删除,留下完全基于IP协议的网络运营,并

As for chip control, long and thin (stringy) cured chips, if not broken up, can severely interfere with the cutting operation by becoming entangled in the cutting zone. Because of the complex nature of cutting operations, it is difficult to establish relationships that quantitatively define the machinability of a material. In manufacturing plants, tool life and surface roughness are generally considered to be the most important factors in machinability. Although not used much any more, approximate machinability ratings are available in the example below. 20.9.1 Machinability Of Steels Because steels are among the most important engineering materials (as noted in Chapter 5), their machinability has been studied extensively. The machinability of steels has been mainly improved by adding lead and sulfur to obtain so-called free-machining steels. Resulfurized and Rephosphorized steels. Sulfur in steels forms manganese sulfide inclusions (second-phase particles), which act as stress raisers in the primary shear zone. As a result, the chips produced break up easily and are small; this improves machinability. The size, shape, distribution, and concentration of these inclusions significantly influence machinability. Elements such as tellurium and selenium, which are both chemically similar to sulfur, act as inclusion modifiers in
