  • This study was conducted to determine whether there is a significant relationship between board structure and board committee qualities and corporate cash holdings in Pakistan. For this objective, 168 listed enterprises on the PSX for the period 2016 to 2020 were chosen as a sample from a population of 436 non-financial firms. Multiple regression analysis was used in the study to discover a relationship between board structure and board committee features and cash holdings. The study's findings revealed that board size, executive directors, and board independence have no significant impact on the firm's cash holding because they play no important part in the firm's cash holding. Auditors, audit committee size, audit committee meetings, and the compensation committee, on the other hand, have no major impact on the firm's cash holdings because they are not relevant indicators to compare with cash holdings. While board meeting frequency and leadership structure both have a negative influence on cash holding, board meeting frequency increases firm costs, whereas leadership structure causes agency problems. Results were supported by the pecking order theory, cash flow theory, and agency theory.

  • CEOs Overconfidence can bring potentially risky early decisions to businesses, along with large enterprise free cash flow that can bring different investment decisions with CEOs Overconfidence. Especially in the context of Vietnamese enterprises, CEOs are often influenced by behavioral psychology about overconfidence in investment decisions (due to individual cultural characteristics as well as operating financial markets also depend on many factors outside the market). Therefore, the authors study the impact of overconfidence and cash flow on investment in Vietnamese to find the internal relationship between these three factors in the financial environment in Vietnam. With 480 companies listed on the Vietnam Stock Exchange from 2014 to 2018 (companies have continuous reports), the regression analysis results with panel data (FEM, GLS models, correction of robust and GMM dealing with endogenous problems) have shown Overconfidence has a positive impact on investment. At the same time, the results also indicated that enterprises with overconfident CEOs and large cash flows tend to invest less than enterprises with low cash flow. The results of this study have shown the behavioral behavior of CEOs in Vietnamese enterprises that exist under both prospect theory and effective market theory.

  • 본 논문에서는 국내 기업들의 현금보유 동기 관련, 재무적 이론들 (즉, 상충이론, 자본조달순위이론, 그리고자유현금흐름 이론 등)에 대한 실증적 분석이 수행되었다. 국내 자본시장에서 현재까지 진행되고 있는 재벌계열사들을 포함한 국내기업들의 현금유동성 과다 보유여부 관련, 상기 재무적 이론들과 연관된 해당 재무변수들의 통계적 중요성을 주성분분석 방법론을 활용하여 검정하였으며, 본 연구는 기존의 현금유동성과 관련된 연구들에 대한 확장연구로서의 의미도 갖는다고 판단된다. 본문 중 수립된 2가지 가설과 관련하여, 첫 번째 가설의 검정 결과에서는 연구에 활용된 총 20개의 재무변수들 중, 현금전환주기, 부채비율 등 9개의 재무비율들이 표본기업들의 현금유동성 수준에 영향을 미치는 것으로 판명되었고, 두 번째 검정 결과에서는 국제금융위기 직후와 최근기간을 비교하여, 동 유동성비율이 감소한 동 계열사들의 주된 이유로서는 상충이론의 해당 변수인 미래 투자기회와 연관된 재무적 제약, 그리고 대리인문제 이론의 변수인 동 기업들에 대한 외국인 지분율 등으로 검정되었다. 본 연구결과는 기업의 현금유동성 수준 관련, 기존의 유사주제 연구결과들에 대한 강건성을 보강할 수 있다고도 판단된다. 또한, 동 결과들은 자본선진국 혹은 신흥개발국 기업들의 최적 현금유동성 분석에도 활용되어 기업가치 극대화에 기여할 것으로 기대된다.
