Can differences in the background characteristics of the chairperson–CEO vertical dyad reduce management agency costs?—A perspective Based on the internal configuration of the top management team
We test whether differences in the background characteristics of firms’ chairperson and CEO can reduce management agency costs. We find that when the chairperson is older, has a higher level of education, and has more overseas experience than the CEO, the management agency costs will be lower. A series of robustness tests do not change our conclusions. In further analysis, we find that the negative relationship between the two is more significant for SOEs or firms experiencing fierce market competition. Finally, we also find that the chairman-CEO’s vertical dyad background characteristics differences can help to improve firm performance. Our study provides theoretical and practical implications for companies on how to best configure their top management team.
