Foreign Ownership and Firm Performance: Evidence from Malaysia

Asian Journal of Accounting and Governance, 2015

It is a known fact that foreign multinational firms hold significant ownership in firms listed on Bursa Malaysia. These foreign owners do not only provide capital, but also managerial expertise and exceptional monitoring mechanism on managers. Therefore, it can be expected that foreign ownership improves firm performance and efficiency. However, the extent to which their participation in ownership could improve firm performance particularly in emerging countries such as Malaysia has to be empirically tested. This study investigates the relationship between foreign ownership and firm performance of public listed firms in Malaysia. Three years panel data of 730 Malaysian public listed firms were examined. The results show that foreign ownership has positive and significant relationship with ROA and Tobin's Q. Therefore, the involvement of foreign investors in monitoring and controlling activities reduces agency conflict in the emerging economy. This is the first study that utilizes the extended agency theory to explain foreign ownership and performance in a developing country.

The Effect of Foreign Ownership on Firm Performance: Evidences from Indonesia

Proceedings of the 3rd Asia Pacific International Conference of Management and Business Science (AICMBS 2019), 2020

This study examines the effect of foreign ownership on firm performance using a panel data consisting of 66 non-financial firms listed in the Indonesia Stock Exchange. Five-year period data from 2014 to 2018 is considered. The result of the random effects model indicates that foreign ownership has a positive and significant effect on firm performance; foreign firm ownership is found to have more roles in encouraging performance than what foreign institutional investors can do. This result is consistent with the facts about foreign ownership in Indonesia, where high and stable foreign ownership, in the long run, is beneficial for domestic companies, due to effective monitoring, facilitation of technology usage, international market development, and professional management. The problems in this study is limited due to the fact that the firms being studied, either companies or institutions, are mostly owned by single foreign investors

The Relationship Between Ownership Concentration, Environmental Performance and Firm Performance Evidence From Indonesia

In this study the relationships between ownership concentration and environmental performance and firm performance are examined. Companies manufacturing and mining sectors are listed in the Indonesia Stock Exchange as the sample in this study. Environmental performance is measured using Performance Rating Program (PROPER) by the Ministry of Environment and Forestry of the Republic Indonesia. Ownership concentration is measured by the percentage ownership of largest shareholders the first three (at least 5 percent) of the outstanding shares. Firm performance is measured by proxy ROA and Tobins Q. The findings indicate that there is no relationship between ownership concentration and environmental performance. Additionally Ownership concentration positively related to firm performance, and environmental performance is positively related to firm performance (in measurement of Tobins Q but not in ROA). The overall findings support agency theory and legitimacy theory. Environmental performance can be a strategy to increase firm performance.

Ownership Structure and Corporate Performance in East Asia

1998

This paper seeks to analyse the relationship between ownership structure and corporate performance for fifty firms listed on the Australian Stock Exchange during 2002-2003. The study initially tests a two equation model similar to that in the existing literature, but is distinguished from prior literature by subsequently reclassifying leverage. By categorising leverage as an endogenous variable, an examination of the relationship between ownership and performance is undertaken through ordinary least squares and two stage least squares analysis of a three equation econometric model. Interestingly, empirical results illustrate the fact that managerial ownership impacts negatively on firm performance which is consistent with the management entrenchment hypothesis.

The Effect of Capital Structure and Ownership Structure on Firm Performance: A Test of Reverse Causality Hypothesis in Three ASEAN Countries

SSRN Electronic Journal, 2012

This study aims to investigate the effect of capital structure and ownership structure on firm performance. In addition, this study also examines the existence of reverse causality using firm-level data from three industries of three ASEAN countries, i.e., Indonesia, Malaysia and Singapore. It applies a two-stage estimation method. First, we measure the effect of capital structure and ownership structure on firm performance, which is measured using the non-parametric approach of Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA). Second, we test the reverse causality hypothesis of firm performance to capital structure, which is viewed in light of two competing hypotheses: the efficiency-risk hypothesis and franchise-value hypothesis. Findings from this study reveal that, in general, a firm's capital structure positively and significantly affected firm performance, except for the Indonesian firms. In addition, results showed a positive effect of ownership concentration on firm performance. Finally, results from this study support the efficiency-risk hypothesis that suggests a positive relation between firm performance and capital structure.

The Journal of Asian Finance, Economics and Business

The human and capital resources from foreign investors are important sources of finance for developing countries. Foreign ownership can help the firm to raise funds for operations and the foreign management can help the firm expand the market and improve management. However, does this really happen to Vietnamese firm? To find the answer to that question, this paper examines the impact of foreign ownership and management on the financial performance of listed firms on Vietnam's stock market. The data collected include 427 listed firms in all fields over five years, from 2014 to 2018. The financial performance is measured by Tobin's Q, ROA and ROE. The study carried out testing of each model by the least squares method of Pool OLS, assessing random effects (REM) and evaluating fixed effects (FEM). The most effective model is the FEM model. The results show that the foreign ownership ratio and the size of the firm have a positive impact on the financial performance. The foreign management, the age of the firms, the liquidity and financial leverage have a negative impact on the financial performance. Based on the research results, the study proposes some recommendations to improve the financial performance of listed firms in Vietnam.

Does Green Investment Increase Financial Performance? Empirical Evidence from Indonesian Companies
