主题:Boardroom Centrality and Systematic Risk

主讲人:陆瑶,清华大学经管学院副教授

时间:1129日(周五)下午230

地点:经管院A208

主办单位:武汉大学经济与管理学院工商管理系

讲座主要内容:

We find that boardroom centrality formed by sharing directors across firms can significantly increase firms’ systematic risk. This positive effect is stronger when the shared directors also sit on boards of other large firms or firms included in the stock market index. It is also stronger when boardroom centrality is formed by inside executive directors or more experienced directors. Further corroborating these inferences, we find that boardroom centrality increases corporate policy and accounting fundamental correlations between the appointing firm and other firms in the markets, and firms with higher boardroom centrality have significantly less idiosyncratic corporate behaviors. Finally, we find that boardroom centrality is positively associated with firms’cost of equity. These results are robust after addressing endogenous issues using identification based on exogenous changes in directorship outside the focal firm. Taken together, these findings highlight the important roles of corporate leaders in affecting firms’ systematic risk.
