Abstract

Foundation ownership represents an alternative corporate governance model to many conventional ownership structures. We examine the effect of foundation ownership on creditor governance. By utilizing an international sample of 411 publicly listed companies between 2003 and 2021, we document that foundation ownership leads to lower credit risk. This negative effect is robust across several different credit measures. Foundation-controlled companies also fare better than family-controlled and institutional investor-controlled companies. Specifically, foundation-controlled companies have better access to bank loans, with more favorable loan contracting conditions. Our results are supported by a series of robustness tests. The results also have policy implications as the European Commission recommends companies move away from a short-term focus.

基金会所有权与债权人治理:上市公司的证据
基金会所有权是许多传统所有权结构之外的另一种公司治理模式。我们研究了基金会所有权对债权人治理的影响。通过利用 2003 年至 2021 年间 411 家上市公司的国际样本,我们发现基金会所有权会导致较低的信贷风险。这种负面影响在几种不同的信用衡量标准中都是稳健的。基金会控制的公司也优于家族控制和机构投资者控制的公司。具体来说,基金会控制的公司更容易获得银行贷款,贷款合同条件也更优惠。我们的结果得到了一系列稳健性检验的支持。随着欧盟委员会建议公司摒弃短期关注,这些结果也具有政策意义。
