ساختار مالکیت، کیفیت ممیزی، ساختار هیئت مدیره و خطر سقوط قیمت سهام: شواهد از چین

This paper explores whether or not a Chinese firm's ownership structure, audit quality, and board structure are associated with its future stock price crash risk. We find that stronger ownership structure and higher audit quality are associated with lower stock price crash risk, and the association is stronger since the IFRS and split-share reforms than before them. The results are consistent across two different measures of crash risk, as well as robust to endogeneity tests. We also find that board structure is not significantly associated with stock price crash risk.
