| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The object of this project is to provide empirical evidence on what type of governance system contributes to improvement of long-term firm values. First, I find that bank-firm lending relationships impair firm values in the long run. However, when the relationships are short-term, firm values improve. In the second study of this project, I find that larger institutional ownership leads to higher volatility of stock prices in the short run. This is because that larger institutional ownership allows investors to lend shares and some index funds trade in the same direction. Empirical evidence in this project suggests that corporate managers have to care about ownership/debt structures of their firms. Considering ownership/debt structures of firms is important to achieve improvement of firm values.
