Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study tried to identify the impact of social capital on the performance of companies listed on the Section One of Tokyo Stock Exchange focusing on the structure of board of directors from the view point of social capital. We used the % share of the months the director spent with the company out of his/her entire business carrier as a proxy of the company’s openness to the outsiders and the age difference between CEO and other members of the board and the length of time the CEO is in power as proxies for the company’s cohesion among insiders. Ten-year average of ROA, sales growth rate, debt-ratio, value-added ratio, and 5-year average ofβ on stock price are calculated for each company as the performance indices. We found closed companies have lower sales growth, while cohesion among insiders works for the performance of the company. However, since the value added ratio tend to decline in a cohesive company, the improvement of the performance could be achieved by low wages.
