Abstract

Based on the data of A-share listed companies in Shanghai and Shenzhen from 2007 to 2020, the mechanism of litigation's influence on the risk of stock price collapse is empirically examined. We find that litigation can effectively inhibit share price crash risk, and there is heterogeneity like property rights. The higher the external attention and internal governance, the stronger the governance effect of litigation; the extended analysis examines the market response to litigation under the new Securities Law, and the new regulation strengthens the response of crash risk to litigation events and has regulatory spillover effects. The conclusions of this paper are based on the institutional background of the new Securities Law, which is of great significance for deepening administrative enforcement reform and strengthening judicial supervision, improving the new securities civil litigation system and enhancing the quality of listed companies.
证券监管下的诉讼与股价崩盘风险
基于2007 - 2020年沪深两市a股上市公司数据,实证检验了诉讼对股价暴跌风险的影响机制。研究发现,诉讼可以有效抑制股价崩盘风险,且存在产权异质性。外部关注度和内部治理越高,诉讼治理效果越强;扩展分析考察了新《证券法》下市场对诉讼事件的反应,新《证券法》强化了崩盘风险对诉讼事件的反应,并具有监管溢出效应。本文的结论基于新《证券法》的制度背景,对于深化行政执法改革,加强司法监督,完善新证券民事诉讼制度,提升上市公司质量具有重要意义。
