摘要

目的通过对中国数据的分析,重新审视董事和高级管理人员保险与会计稳健性的关系,探讨投资者法律保护对董事和高级管理人员保险功能的影响。研究样本包括2006年至2019年在上海和深圳证券交易所上市的所有a股公司。采用多元回归分析方法探讨董事责任保险与会计稳健性之间的关系。采用Heckman两阶段模型和倾向得分匹配法检验主要结果的稳健性。调查结果显示,s&o保险公司表现出更高的会计稳健性。赔偿限额越高,公司的收益报告就越保守。当投资者保护相对较弱时,正相关关系更强。内部或外部监督机制较弱的公司,董事责任保险对会计稳健性的影响更大。研究结果表明,在投资者法律保护薄弱的情况下,董事责任保险在上市公司治理中发挥了积极作用,支持了董事责任保险的有效监管假说。

Directors’ and officers’ liability insurance and accounting conservatism: empirical evidence from China
Purpose This study analyses Chinese data to revisit the relationship between directors’ and officers’ (D&O) insurance and accounting conservatism, aiming to investigate the impact of investors’ legal protection on the function of D&O insurance. Design/methodology/approach The study sample included all A-share firms listed on the Shanghai and Shenzhen Stock Exchanges from 2006 to 2019. Multiple regression was used to investigate the association between D&O insurance and accounting conservatism. The Heckman two-stage model and the propensity score matching method were used to check the robustness of the main results. Findings D&O insured companies exhibited greater accounting conservatism. The higher the indemnity limit, the more conservative a firm’s earnings reporting. The positive correlation was stronger when investor protection was relatively weak. The impact of D&O insurance on accounting conservatism was stronger for companies with weaker internal or external supervision mechanisms. Originality/value The study findings show that D&O insurance plays a positive role in the governance of listed companies when investors’ legal protection is weak, which supports the effective supervision hypothesis of D&O insurance.
