We explore the topology of multilayer networks through static and dynamic analysis to capture the information transmission mechanism of idiosyncratic risks. Moreover, we investigate the drivers influencing idiosyncratic connectedness across financial institutions. We find that idiosyncratic risk contagion among financial institutions is stronger in the long-run network. At the same time, we note that the three networks contain different connection structures, which means that the information transmission mechanism of idiosyncratic risks is heterogeneous in multilayer networks. In addition, when the financial system is under stress, we observe that the contemporaneous effect of idiosyncratic connectedness rises rapidly. Institutional level analysis shows that diversified financial institutions play active roles in the lagged network, securities institutions are transmitters of contemporaneous information spillovers, and banking institutions are the main drivers of the long-run network. Finally, our study shows that size is the main factor driving idiosyncratic risk spillovers among financial institutions.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":48074,"journal":{"name":"Pacific-Basin Finance Journal","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":4.8,"publicationDate":"2024-09-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142240969","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These results are robust to a series of additional tests, such as difference-in-differences analyses, instrumental variable tests, and alternative explanation tests. The effect is particularly pronounced for SOEs with weaker internal controls, fewer professional auditors, and less marketization. We further find that the use of currency derivatives by SOEs hinders the promotion of managers. Furthermore, the prevalence of subjective performance evaluation in SOEs, as opposed to objective performance measures, affects managers' decisions regarding hedging, as evidenced by negative promotion–performance sensitivity when using financial derivatives. Overall, our study sheds light on the aversion of SOEs to forex hedging, providing insight into the conservative decision-making tendencies of SOE managers under political governance.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":48074,"journal":{"name":"Pacific-Basin Finance Journal","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":4.8,"publicationDate":"2024-09-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142229150","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We find strong evidence that firms with NLBs invest more in cross-provincial subsidiaries, particularly if NLBs are in the same industry as the firm, if they appoint executives to the firm, and if they are state-owned. Moreover, NLBs can help firms obtain more bank loans and government subsidies from the provinces where NLBs are located, thus promoting firms' cross-regional investment. A heterogeneity analysis indicates that the role of NLBs is strengthened if the target regions' institutional environment is unfriendly for firms' cross-regional investment but diminished if the firm has other social networks. Additionally, the cross-regional investment promoted by NLBs entails lower transaction costs and increases the total factor productivity of firms.
