Il valore dell’impresa nel contesto familiare: il ruolo del consiglio di amministrazione / FIRM VALUE IN FAMILY-CONTROLLED FIRMS: THE INFLUENCE OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS

BUCHETTI, BRUNO 24 April 2020 (has links)
La tesi si pone l’obiettivo di investigare la relazione tra composizione del CDA e le performance delle imprese familiari quotate italiane. Il database, interamente raccolto a mano, copre un periodo di 3 anni (2014-2016). Il numero totale di amministratori analizzati è 2.661. Per ogni amministratore sono state acquisite 26 variabili per un totale di 69,186 dati raccolti. La variabili sono state estratte guardando alle esperienze professionali e al ruolo di ogni amministratore all'interno del CDA. Precisamente, le variabili fanno riferimento alle precedenti esperienze lavorative, alle possibili connessioni generate con altre imprese, a conoscenze tecniche acquisite (commercialista, avvocato, consulente strategico e professore), al livello di educazione scolastica, l’appartenenza alla famiglia controllante, caratteristiche specifiche (genere, età e nazionalità), eventuali esperienze all’estero e altri elementi dettagliati nella tesi. Queste variabili sono chiamate “strutturate” quando sono acquisite direttamente della “relazione annuale sulla corporate governance” (art. 123- bis TUF), documento obbligatorio per le società quotate italiane e “non strutturate” quando sono state acquisite per il tramite dei curricula presentati dagli amministratori alla data di nomina. / In this dissertation I investigate the relation between board composition and the performance of family-controlled firms. The element that makes this thesis unique is that the database was entirely hand-collected, with the analysis covering the three-year period from 2014 to 2016 for a total of 2,661 directors analyzed, and 26 variables extracted for each director1. The total number of hand-collected variables for all the board members is 69,186. The board composition is measured using different variables extracted directly from the board members’ characteristics and professional experiences. The board members’ characteristics are measured in terms of previous work experiences, specific connections with other companies, work experience in specific sectors, personal characteristics, level and type of education, international experience, role and power on the board and the relation with the family (family member or not). These variables are called “structured variables” when they are collected using the table that Italian listed companies must publish every year in a report called “Corporate Governance report and ownership structure” (art. 123- bis TUF). In contrast, variables are considered “unstructured variables” when they are collected using the information provided in the directors’ curricula.

Styrelseegenskapers påverkan på efterlevnaden av IFRS 2 : En studie om efterlevnad av upplysningskrav och kvantiteten av noter i årsredovisningar / The effect of corporate governance characteristics on compliance with IFRS 2 : A study on compliance with the disclosure requirements and the quantity of notes in annual reports

Andersson Aronsson, Viola, Barsoum, Emad January 2020 (has links)
Bakgrund Upplysningar är ett ämne som ofta förekommer i den internationella redovisningsdebatten eftersom det utgör en nyckelfaktor för att förstå företagens finansiella rapporter. Det har även funnits ett intresse att förklara efterlevnadsnivån, där en stor del av forskningen undersökt företagsspecifika egenskapers påverkan på efterlevnaden. Under de senaste åren har forskning även intresserat sig för att undersöka huruvida bolagsstyrningsspecifika egenskaper kan påverka upplysningsgraden. Den internationella normgivaren IASB utvärderar även om redovisningsstandarderna kan vara en bidragande faktor till det omtalade informationsöverflöde som påstås finnas i årsrapporter, och om fler principer istället bör införas. Det kan dock finnas skäl till att först utvärdera efterlevnadsnivån för de minimikrav som ställs på företagen avseende upplysningar innan principer införs som skapar större frihet för företagen att lämna upplysning. Syfte Inom ramen för denna studie är syftet att åskådliggöra efterlevnadsnivån och kvantiteten av noter om aktierelaterade ersättningar över tid, och därmed skapa insikt för vilken information som förmedlas i de finansiella rapporterna och vilka upplysningskrav som har bristfällig efterlevnad. Studien ämnar även till att klargöra huruvida styrelseegenskaper och kvantiteten av noter kan påverka efterlevnaden av IFRS 2 för att belysa hur styrelsens sammansättning kan inverka på redovisningen och upprättandet av företagens årsredovisningar. Metod Fyra hypoteser har formulerats för att besvara studiens syfte. Studien tillämpar en kvantitativ metod där text i årsredovisningar har kvantifierats och kodats i enlighet med metoden innehållsanalys. En dikotomisk poängsättning har använts i konstruktionen av studiens upplysningsindex. Kvantiteten av upplysningar om aktierelaterade ersättningar har mätts i antal ord.     Resultat Efterlevnadsnivån för svenska börsnoterade företag låg på omkring 70 procent, med en minimal ökning om 1 procentenhet mellan de undersökta åren. Kvantiteten av upplysningar om aktierelaterade ersättningar visade inte heller på någon större förändring mellan åren och merparten av företagen låg mellan intervallet 501 till 1 500 ord i årsrapporterna. Regressionsanalysen ledde till att ingen av studiens hypoteser kunde accepteras då ingen variabel uppvisade statistisk signifikans. Slutsats Studien påvisar bristfällig efterlevnad av IFRS 2. Vidare kunde inga signifikanta samband konstateras mellan efterlevnaden och de bolagsstyrningsspecifika egenskaperna, vilket skiljer sig från internationella studier. Kvantiteten av upplysningar om aktierelaterade ersättningar har varit relativt stabil mellan åren, dock har det totala antalet sidor i årsredovisningarna ökat med 16,9 procent vilket kan indikera på ett informationsöverflöde. / Background Disclosures are a topic that is often found in the international accounting debate because they are a key factor in understanding the financial reports of companies. There has also been an interest in explaining compliance levels, where a large part of the research has investigated the impact of firm specific characteristics on compliance. In recent years, research has also been interested in examining whether corporate governance characteristics can affect the degree of disclosure. The international standards regulator IASB are now at a stage where they evaluate whether accounting standards can be a contributing factor to the discussed information overflow in annual reports and whether more principles should be introduced instead. However, there may be grounds for evaluating the level of compliance for the minimum requirements before introducing principles that create greater freedom for companies to provide information or not. Purpose In the context of this study, the purpose is to illustrate the level of compliance and the quantity of notes on share-based payments over time, thereby creating an insight into what information is communicated in the financial reports and which disclosure requirements have inadequate compliance. The study also intends to clarify whether corporate governance characteristics and quantity of notes can affect compliance with IFRS 2 to illustrate how the composition of the Board of Directors can influence the accounting and preparation of the company’s annual reports. Method Four hypotheses have been formulated to answer the purpose of the study. The study applies a quantitative method where text in annual reports has been quantified and coded according to the method of content analysis. A dichotomous score has been used when constructing the study´s disclosure index. The quantity of information on share-based payments has been measured in number of words. Result The compliance level for Swedish listed companies was around 70 percent, with a minimal increase of 1 percent between the years surveyed. Nor did the amount of information on share-based payments show any significant change between the years and the majority of the companies ranged between 501 and 1 500 words in their annual reports. The regression analysis showed that none of the study´s hypotheses could be accepted as no variable showed statistical significance. Conclusions The study demonstrates a poor compliance with IFRS 2. Furthermore, no significant relationship between compliance level and corporate governance characteristics was found, which differs from international studies. The amount of information on share-based payments has been relatively stable over the years, however the total number of pages in the annual reports has increased by 16,9 percent, which may indicate an information overflow.
