Wang, Su. "Blockholders and corporate governance." Thesis, University of Southampton, 2018. https://eprints.soton.ac.uk/422198/.

Abstract:
Blockholding has long been perceived as a harmful force to corporate governance due to its alleged exacerbation of minority expropriation, which is the core theoretical justification of recent worldwide ‘anti-blockholding’ regulatory movements. However, two facts should not be neglected that, first, although blockholding imposes risks of deepening Type II agency conflicts in public companies, it serves a crucial corporate governance role to minimise the Type I agency problem. Therefore, whether tightening rules that might disincentive blockholding is warranted can only be determined if the exp

This dissertation investigates three types of investment manager trading behaviour to ascertain whether behavioural biases are present in the Australian investment management industry. In particular, this thesis examines whether these biases are detrimental to fund performance and market efficiency, and whether there is a need for regulatory review given the behaviour of institutions in their trading on the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX). The three empirical issues examined in this thesis are: leader and follower patterns in institutional trading; quarter-end gaming behaviour; and shor

Abstract:
The objective of this study is to provide empirical evidence on how ownership structure and owner’s identity affect performance, in the banking industry by using a panel of Indonesia banks over the period 2000–2009. Firstly, we analysed the impact of the presence of multiple blockholders on bank ownership structure and performance. Building on multiple agency and principal-principal theories, we investigated whether the presence and shares dispersion across blockholders with different identities (i.e. central and regional government; families; foreign banks and financial institutions) affected

This thesis investigates the role of blockholders in the governance of Saudi public listed companies. Saudi Arabia presents a unique setting, where religious, cultural and social factors, that are similar to those of other Arab and Islamic nations, play an important role in the day to day lives of the society. Similar to other developing countries, Saudi Arabia is characterized by a wide presence of blockholders in addition to a weak legal setting, in such context minority shareholders become prone to expropriation by controlling blockholders.

The aim of this thesis is to explain and predict the relationships between the diverse classes of blockholders and firm performance based on appropriate theories including agency, stewardship and resource dependence theory.

I examine the effect of ownership structure on firms' propensities to save the proceeds of a share issuance as cash. Specifically, I focus on changes in cash savings at the time of a seasoned equity offering (SEO), a moment at which the firm experiences a large inflow of cash, to determine whether ownership structures such as managerial blockholdings or the presence of institutional investors materially affect firms' decisions regarding their level of cash savings. I find that firms with managerial blockholders are more inclined to save share issuance proceeds as cash, relative to firms with o

Using an endogenous growth framework, this thesis models and tests whether hedge fund activists add value by correcting inefficient R&D investment at their targets. While activists are more likely to target firms over-investing in R&D, I find no evidence that suggests they correct inefficient R&D investment despite decreasing R&D expenditure at target firms. Further robustness highlights the negative impact of hedge fund activism on value creation after controlling for the activist’s stated objectives and reputation, quantile treatment effects, and superior stock selection ability.

Abstract:
The classical corporation, as described by Berle and Means (1932), was characterized by ownership that is dispersed between many small shareholders, yet control was concentrated in the hands of managers. This ownership structure created the conflict of interest between managers and dispersed shareholders. More recent empirical work (see, e.g., La Porta et al. (1999) and Barca and Becht (2001)) has shown that ownership in many countries around the world is typically concentrated in the hands of a small number of large shareholders.

In this dissertation, I investigate whether corporate governance affects the negative association between investment and future excess returns. Shareholders are concerned with the effectiveness of the firm's governance regime as a tool to reduce agency costs. In the absence of strong control over firm assets, managers may choose to invest in value-decreasing projects. The probability that managers select value-decreasing projects is an increasing (decreasing) function in investment activity (governance regime).
