文獻探討中有提到許多公司治理與公司治理衡量指標之關係，且也有人做有關資訊揭露(為公司治理衡量指標之一部分)與負債資金成本之研究，即公司治理之衡量指標可代表公司治理之好壞，那公司治理與負債資金成本有無直接相關呢？可否直接從公司治理之好壞看出其負債資金成本之高低呢？並無相關文獻探討有關內容。而在世界銀行公司治理架構中，債權人也是公司治理的一份子，因此本研究欲探討對債權人而言，公司治理的好壞會不會影響其對公司收取的利息，也就是公司之負債資金成本會否受公司治理好壞之影響，以補足公司治理架構之研究。
本研究樣本之選取期間為民國八十五年至民國九十一年間，共7 個年度。共167個觀察值。本研究使用複迴歸分析，對各項變數進行分析，以了解公司治理之特性與負債資金成本的關聯性，其結果如下：
解釋變數中，董監持股比、機構持股比及董事長兼任總經理方向不僅與預期相同，結果也顯著。公司之揭露程度方向雖與預期相同，但不顯著。
可能原因為，公司治理為近年來才開始重視的議題，且通常是股東比較會在意公司的公司治理好壞，債權人可能還未意識到公司之公司治理好壞影響該公司甚大，其在考慮是否將資金貸予公司時，可能還未將公司之公司治理好壞因素考慮在內。但一家公司能否永續經營，公司治理之好壞應該是很好的判斷標準，因此，預期未來債權人也會意識到這種情形，在考慮是否將資金貸予公司時，應會將公司之公司治理好壞考慮進去。所以，若公司想在現今競爭激烈的環境下生存，首要之務就是將公司的公司治理做好，既利人又利己，何樂而不為呢？
關鍵字：公司治理、負債資金成本 / A survey of literature reveals that management performance is positively correlated with the quality of corporate governance and negatively correlated with the cost of debt. However, no research has been conducted to evaluate the relationship between the quality of corporate governance and the cost of debt. In the corporate governance framework formulated by the World Bank, creditor is one of the corporate governance factors. Therefore, it is hypothesized that the quality of corporate governance is negatively correlated with the cost of debt.
Sample firms are selected from companies issuing bond during 1996 to 2002, with a total of 167 firm/year observations. The multi-variate linear regression model is employed to carry out the analysis.
The results indicate that the director’s shareholdings, the institutional investor’s shareholdings and the dual position of board chairman and presidency are all significantly correlated with the cost of debt at anticipated direction, which support the hypothesis. The financial transparency is also negatively correlated with the cost of debt as anticipated but not at a significant level. Overall, it appears that the creditors take into consideration the quality of corporate governance in making their lending decisions.
Key words：corporate governance, the cost of debt.
