우리나라의 상장기업 중 CGI의 산업별 분석결과 강력한 감독기관의 감독과 규제를 받는 금융업의 지배구조가 가장 높은 점수를 얻었으나, 전통적인 제조업이나 어업광업 등의 업종은 낮은 점수를 얻어 지배구조의 개선이 요구된다. 주식시장에서 신호효과(Signaling effect)에 대한 검증결과, 지배구조 우수기업의 발표가 분명히 시장에서 해당기업에게 호재로 작용했음이 분명한데도 불구하고, 주식수익률이 발표일 전후를 기준으로 유의한 차이가 없으므로 기업지배구조에 따른 기업가치는 시장에서 이미 인지되어 주가에 반영되고 있다는 결론을 도출할 수 있다. 이러한 연구는 우리나라에서 아직 부족한 기업지배구조 연구에 있어 새로운 시도로서 증권시장에서 장기투자를 하는 투자자들에게 지배구조가 하나의 투자지표로서 유용한 도구임을 보임과 동시에 지배구조의 개선은 기업의 입장에서도 기업 가치향상과 주주부의 극대화의 방법으로 타당함을 밝히기 위한 것이다.

This study analyzed the effect of related party transactions on the corporate value of Korean firms using panel data regression analysis. We tested the efficient transaction hypothesis and conflict of interests hypothesis which concern related party transactions. Five types of related party transactions were considered, including long term supply contracts, assets and business transfers, affiliate loans, equity investment, and credit offerings. If related party transactions were conducted for the purpose of enhancing corporate efficiency, results would have a positive effect on firm value. If related party transactions were conducted for the purpose of private profits of the controlling shareholders, the results would show a negative effect on firm value. Results were as follows. Firstly, it is confirmed that affiliate loans, equity investment, and credit offerings had negative effects on firm value. This implies that these types of related party transactions used by controlling shareholders for the purpose of their private profit, which supports the conflict of interests hypothesis. Secondly, it was found that long term supply contracts and assets and business transfers had no effect on firm value.

From the perspective of corporate governance, we examine the acquirers' performance of mergers and acquisitions. The empirical results of our study show that outside active shareholders, such as block shareholders or institutional shareholders, affect acquirers' performance in M&A's : the ownership of outside active shareholders is positively correlated with the performance of acquirers. However, the ownership of insiders, such as that of encumbent manners or major shareholders, does not have any significant effect on the performance of M&A's. We also found that the ownership of foreign investors increased its explanatory power after the financial crisis of Asia. Since the current literature concludes that the improvement of corporate governance would enhance the shareholders' wealth, the results of our study implies that outside active investors, rather than insiders, are playing an important role in the corporate governance.

This study conducted an empirical analysis of SSE-listed companies to verify the effects of evaluation and disclosure of internal control systems on the agency costs management and controlling shareholders. Agency costs can affect the valuation of accounting information as asymmetry of information in the relationship between a company and its stakeholders, or induce financial costs as an adverse selection. If the firm's agency costs are reasonable, the valuation of the company can also move in a relatively positive direction. In this study, the evaluation information of the internal control system was analyzed through sales management ratio and equity ratio as substitute variables to analyze the relationship between management and agent costs of the controlling shareholders. In addition, independent control ratio, capital balance ratio, and company scale were used as control variables, as a result of the analysis, the evaluation information of internal control was found to be related to the agency costs of managers and governance structure. This study can be conducted to positive factors in evaluating the reliability and corporate value of accounting information according to the evaluation of internal control of SSE-listed companies and helps to understand the financial reporting environment.

First, from the analysis, companies which have higher major shareholder's holdings tend to increase earnings forecast errors and earnings forecast accuracy. Meanwhile, companies which have higher institution shareholder's holdings tend to decrease earnings forecast errors and earnings forecast accuracy. This result is in line with the view of previous works that companies with higher major shareholder's holdings look towards more of analysts' optimistic forecasts in order to maintain friendly relations with major shareholders. Because of analysts' private information use from major shareholders, earnings forecast accuracy is higher in high major shareholder's holdings firm than in high institution shareholder's holdings it. Second, this analysis is whether the minimal required selection condition of outside directors, audit committee adoption and audit quality affect the relation between ownership structure and analysts' forecasts.

The study investigates the impact of family ownership heterogeneity on the internationalization decisions of family-owned enterprises from ICT sectors in South Korea. The study uses prospect theory to explore the relationship between ownership structure and internationalization. The study finds that as performance improves, the ultimate owner (CEO) is negatively related to internationalization, while other family members are positively related, demonstrating the heterogeneous behavior of family members. The study suggests that the ultimate owner (CEO) tends to avoid risks associated with internationalization, while other family members are willing to take risks. To better understand the various risk behaviors of family firms regarding internationalization, the inherent heterogeneity of family firms, particularly in light of different risk behaviors between the ultimate owner (CEO) and other family members, may explain the inconsistent results in studies on the effect of family ownership on internationalization.

우리나라 재벌기업은 소유집중에 의한 소유경영과 비관련사업다각화를 경영의 특징으로 하고 있으며 정부는 경제력집중의 완화와 재벌기업의 경쟁력 제고를 위하여 공정거래법 등을 통하여 소유분산과 업종전문화를 지속적으로 추진해 왔다. 본 연구는 이러한 정부의 재벌정책에 방향을 제시코자 재벌기업의 기업지배형태를 고찰하고 30대 재벌기업의 1997년 자료를 이용하여 그룹차원과 개별기업차원으로 나누어 재벌기업의 소유구조 결정요인을 실증적으로 분석하였다. 분석 결과 그룹차원에서 소유구조결정요인은 상장비중을 제외하고는 뚜렷한 요인이 식별되지 않아 그룹차원에서는 대주주가 지분관리를 하지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 개별 기업차원에서는, 먼저 대주주의 총지분은 개별기업의 특성과는 거의 무관하게 결정되는 것으로 나타났으나, 개인의 지분은 상장후 경과년수 및 기업규모와 부의 유의적인 관계를 나타내었으며 법인지분은 기업규모와는 무관하나 상장후 경과년수와는 오히려 정의 유의적인 관계를 보였다. 또한 주력기업에 대하여는 대주주가 개인지분을 높게 유지하려는 경향이 있음도 드러났다. 또한 총지분을 종속변수로 사용한 경우의 모형의 설명력이 개인지분이나 법인지분을 종속변수로 사용한 경우에 비해 현저히 낮게 나타나 향후의 소유구조 결정요인에 대한 연구에 있어서 종속변수로서 총지분을 사용하고자 하려면 면밀한 사전분석이 필요함이 시사되었다.
