While transaction costs are included in the ETF returns, that is not true regarding risk factors, making it more challenging to characterize extraordinary performances via alphas. Assessments are based on the proportion of skilled funds, defined as positive-alpha funds. Such a proportion is calculated taking into account potential false discoveries and employing the method devised by Barras et al. (2010). After evaluating several ETF combinations, we conclude that sets of 3 to 5 ETFs replicate most levels of active fund performance. Finally, we propose specific ETF selection algorithms, whereby we estimate that 95% of active management funds fail to generate value for their investors. Alphas calculated with ETFs are higher than those using risk factors, but the difference is similar to the transaction costs required for investing in risk factor portfolios (Frazzini et al., 2012).","PeriodicalId":57292,"journal":{"name":"公司治理评论","volume":"51 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-06-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86171440","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We differ from most studies that focus on incentive fees and the high-water mark by examining how management fees affect managers’ risk-taking. Our simple model shows that managers’ risk-taking is negatively related to their future management fees. Using fund-level data, we find that future management fees are the dominant component of managers’ total compensation. When the contribution of future management fees increases, managers reduce risk-taking to increase survival probabilities. Moreover, funds with higher decreasing returns to scale are more sensitive to future management fees and reduce risk-taking even more.","PeriodicalId":57292,"journal":{"name":"公司治理评论","volume":"139 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-06-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80281516","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Using intra-group equity transactions within the top 40 largest business groups in Korea, this study finds that high levels of internal capital allocation within the groups exert a negative influence on investments of standalone firms that require external capital. Due to financial market imperfections associated with low investor protections, business groups prefer internal investment rather than outside investment. However, when internal capital allocation is prevalent in the economy, lots of capital is trapped inside business groups and available capital in external markets becomes scarce. Standalone firms outside business groups have difficulties raising external finance and thus reduce investment. The negative influence on investments of business group dominance is particularly pronounced for private standalone firms and the firms that hold fewer tangible assets. Findings in this study suggest a negative externality that business groups impose on other standalone firms: the bias toward internal investment makes it harder for good projects outside business groups to obtain capital.","PeriodicalId":57292,"journal":{"name":"公司治理评论","volume":"81 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-02-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85783874","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We propose that risk calculation and capitalistic insurance ethos represent the episteme of the classical period and laid the ground for capitalism. We discuss information revolution in relation to risk and insurance. Information revolution allows corporations to behave like insurers in that they produce and discriminate risks. In this sense, information revolution can be considered insurance revolution. Information revolution deconstructs individuals to dividuals, and transforms a society of discipline or control to a society of manipulation. In the society of manipulation, languages are numerical and network; manipulation has the form of modulation and metamorphosis; and people are exposed to multiple personalities and compound dividuals. It is also noted that information revolution intensifies the immanent conflicts of the insurance ethos.","PeriodicalId":57292,"journal":{"name":"公司治理评论","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-02-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88665023","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Our results show that low interest rates reduce bank stability and have an adverse effect on risk-adjusted returns, and risk-adjusted capitalization; however, this effect can be mitigated by a bank’s commitment and effectiveness towards following corporate governance principles. The results also show that high values of corporate governance can completely offset the low rates’ adverse effects. Our findings are robust to the use of bank fixed effects and numerous variables that control for bank-specific and country-specific characteristics.","PeriodicalId":57292,"journal":{"name":"公司治理评论","volume":"22 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-01-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85427123","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
