Abstract

This study examines the effect of chief executive officer (CEO) overconfidence on tax avoidance practices. Based on a sample of French-listed firms, the results show that overconfident CEOs engage in high levels of tax avoidance suggesting that the overconfidence bias may lead CEOs’ to behave unethically and use deceitful tactics to avoid taxes. However, board gender diversity mitigates this behavior suggesting that female directors are good monitors on the board. Our findings give insights to policymakers who may consider gender diversity on top management positions in addition to the board of directors to prevent a loss in tax revenues.

CEO过度自信与税务实践:性别多样性重要吗?

本研究探讨了首席执行官(CEO)过度自信对避税行为的影响。基于法国上市公司的样本，结果表明，过度自信的首席执行官参与高水平的避税，这表明过度自信的偏见可能导致首席执行官的不道德行为和使用欺骗手段来避税。然而，董事会性别多样性缓和了这种行为，这表明女性董事是董事会中很好的监督者。我们的研究结果为决策者提供了见解，他们可能会考虑在董事会之外的高层管理职位中考虑性别多样性，以防止税收损失。
