Abstract:

碩士<br>國立臺灣大學<br>財務金融學研究所<br>99<br>The determinants of financing policies have been extensively discussed in financial literatures. However, even companies with similar fundamentals have different choices of financing policies after considering the taxes, bankruptcy costs, and asymmetric information. To explain the residual variation in debt conservatism and pecking order theory, recent literatures propose that managerial beliefs may be one of the crucial factors. By using the late option exercise of CEOs as a measure of overconfidence, we test if overconfident CEOs underutilize debt. We also t

Abstract:

碩士<br>國立臺北大學<br>企業管理學系<br>104<br>Prior literature suggests that CEOs with inside debt holdings (pension benefits and deferred compensation) would exhibit conservative and lower risk-taking behavior. This study investigates the relation between CEO inside debt holdings and overconfidence. Overconfident CEOs tend to overestimate future cash flow of investment project and underestimate project risk, leading to overinvestment. This study examines whether inside debt holdings improve investment decision made by overconfident CEOs. The empirical results show that inside debt holdings have no signifi

Abstract:

碩士<br>國立臺灣大學<br>財務金融學研究所<br>98<br>We argue that overconfidence of CEO helps to explain dividend decisions. Since overconfident CEOs are prone to overinvest, they would like to declare dividend less frequently and pay smaller amount of dividends as well. The reduction in dividends of overconfident CEO is larger if firms with higher growth opportunity, but smaller if firms with higher cash flow and larger firm size. The short-run stock market reactions, cumulative abnormal returns (CAR), to dividend-increase declarations are significantly positive for non-overconfident CEOs, but not significantl

Abstract:

碩士<br>國立臺灣大學<br>財務金融學研究所<br>99<br>We examine the share repurchase announcements of listed companies in Taiwan and shows that overconfident CEOs can help to explain the announcements of firms’ share repurchase. Because firms with overconfident CEOs perceive their firms’ equity is undervalued by the market, they will repurchase shares in order to signal undervaluation to the market. We observe that overconfident CEOs tend to engage in more share repurchases than firms with non-overconfident CEOs. There is no significant difference between overconfident CEOs and non-overconfident CEOs in the shor

We use the position of unexercised options which are in the money to examine whether the CEO is overconfident or not. Moreover, we use four indicators to measure the degree of corporate tax avoidance, which are effective tax rate (ETR), cash effective tax rate (CETR), book-tax difference (BTD) and permanent book-

In this study, we investigate the relation between managerial overconfidence and managerial ability. This study examines whether the successes of overconfident managers are attributed to their superior ability or pure lucky. Our findings suggest overconfident CEOs tend to invest more and the superior managerial ability can restrain their overinvest behavior but is not strong enough. From the perspective of risk-taking behavior of overconfident CEOs, the influence of managerial abil

CEOs with moderately-optimism, who voluntary left from departing firm, younger, better prior performance and from big departing firm are more likely to be hired as CEO by another firm after turnover. Firms with higher growth opportunity and R&;D expenditures are willing to hire overconfident CEOs. More optimistic CEOs can receive higher total compensation than less optimistic CEOs.

In addition, single variables and combined variables are used to test real earnings management. The research samples consist of

It also shows that overconfident family firms enjoy lower loan spread than overconfident non-family firms. In addition, we further document that overconfident firms with more board members on
