“…This implies that government-controlled companies tend to improve their performance, through the use of controlling benefits to monitor managers effectively and to collect important information (Shleifer and Vishny 1986;Grossman and Hart 1980;Borisova et al 2012). Our finding is consistent with previous studies (Faccio et al 2006;Chahrumiind et al 2006;Chaney et al 2011;Ben-Nasr 2016;Lin et al 2016).…”

“…Government ownership is the percentage of shares owned by a government agency (Chen et al 2006;Liang et al 2013;Fan et al 2013;Lin et al 2016). A governmentcontrolled company is a dummy variable that is equal to 1 if the largest shareholder is a government agency and 0 otherwise (Fan et al 2007;Kwak et al 2009;Zhang, 2009;Liu et al 2019).…”

This paper examines the impact of ownership structure on Chinese mutual fund performance and market share. We focus on two dimensions of ownership structure, namely the background of the owners and the degree of ownership concentration. Using a hand-collected dataset comprising 731 observations for 94 fund management companies over the period from 2005 to 2015, we provide evidence with panel estimation shows that the government ownership ratio and government-controlled companies have a positive effect on funds' performance. On the other hand, foreign ownership has a negative impact on performance and market share. Having a higher ownership concentration is more likely to increase the company's market share, whereas government-controlled companies experience a negative impact on their market share.

“…We follow recent cross-country studies (e.g. Doan, Lin, & Doong, 2018;Lin, Doan, & Doong, 2016) that account for differences arising from country-specific aspects of regulatory conditions, financial freedom, credit information and other macroeconomic conditions by including the indicators of these environmental factors in a more comprehensive definition of a common frontier. 6.…”

The interrelationship between risks and bank efficiency has received much attention in banking literature for years, especially after the Asian financial crisis in 1997 and the global financial crisis (GFC) in 2008. This study collected and analyzed the data of 247 banks of 12 developed and developing economies in East Asia and Pacific area over the 2003-2012 period to find the empirical evidence for that relationships. Using a stochastic frontier approach (SFA) to estimate bank cost efficiency, we found that there are significant relationships among risks, cost efficiency and environmental factors, but they are in different levels when comparing between developed and developing economies, or between the periods of pre-and post-2008 financial crisis.

“…In addition, the political theory argues that governmental pursuit of political intentions (e.g., employment rate, bribes) can reduce public enterprise efficiency (Shleifer & Vishny, 1998). Both theories shape an expectation that state‐owned firms tend to be inferior in performance due to non‐profit motivations and resource misallocation for political purposes, especially in countries with high economic uncertainty (Huang, Jiang, Liu, & Zhang, 2011; Lin, Doan, & Doong, 2016).…”

This paper investigates the effect of economic uncertainty on the performance of small and medium enterprises (SMEs) over the period 2007-2016. This paper also examines the effects of ownership structure on the relation between Economic Uncertainty and firm performance. We find that an increase in economic uncertainty is negatively associated with the performance of SMEs. Our results also reveal that increased economic uncertainty is associated with a lower performance level for state-owned SMEs, whereas foreign-owned SMEs can better mitigate the negative impact of on their performance than domestic-owned firms.
