We find that firms' investments reduce income inequality and poverty. We document that increases in employment, compensation paid to employees, and labor productivity due to firms' investment activities can be the underlying drivers of the negative firm-level investment and income inequality link. The impact of firms' investments on income inequality varies across industries and countries. The negative investment and income inequality relation disappears when credit markets are in distress and stock market participation is low. Our findings indicate that encouraging firm-level investment can be a valuable tool for economic policymakers who aim to reduce income inequality and poverty.</p>","PeriodicalId":46664,"journal":{"name":"International Review of Finance","volume":"26 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2026-06-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/irfi.70084","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148324330","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

An alternative view suggests that corporations that pay more taxes are less efficient in designing their tax strategies than those that pay less taxes. Therefore, firms may adopt tax-saving strategies. The problem arises when firms become too aggressive and embark upon the gray zone, where there is no clear distinction between tax saving and tax avoidance/evasion. We provide empirical evidence that tax aggressiveness causes an increase in firm-specific risk. This effect is more pronounced for opaque firms, but it is not sensitive to the quality of corporate governance. It does not differ between multinational and domestic firms, or between firms that borrow money from the foreign debt market and those that do not. Additionally, we find that tax aggressiveness is positively related to higher levels of earnings volatility, stock price crash risk, total risk, and systematic risk. The relationship between tax aggressiveness and idiosyncratic volatility is unaffected by managerial incentives, past investment behavior, ESG performance, or innovation intensity.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":46664,"journal":{"name":"International Review of Finance","volume":"26 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2026-06-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148300139","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The evidence shows that controlling shareholders’ pledging activity is positively associated with firms’ total debt ratios and cost of debt. Further analyses show that better corporate governance and greater transparency can mitigate the increase in debt costs. The results remain robust after addressing endogeneity concerns using an instrumental variable approach and propensity score matching. We also conduct additional tests suggesting that information asymmetry may be an important driver of our findings while partially ruling out two alternative explanations. Overall, this study provides support for the pecking order theory and suggests that controlling shareholders’ share pledging is an additional determinant associated with firms’ capital structure and cost of capital.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":46664,"journal":{"name":"International Review of Finance","volume":"26 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2026-06-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148300142","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
