摘要

本研究利用 2010 年至 2020 年中国 A 股上市公司的数据,采用部分可观测的双变量概率模型,并引入欺诈三角理论来解释过度自信、卖空和企业欺诈的机理。我们的研究结果表明,过度自信为投资者和企业提供了合理性,减少了欺诈行为的发现,增加了企业实施欺诈的动机。卖空促进了信息透明,提高了欺诈的发现率,减少了欺诈的机会。此外,卖空还能调节过度自信与公司欺诈之间的关系。此外,过度自信和卖空会影响不同类型的欺诈(运营欺诈、高管欺诈和信息披露欺诈)。此外,我们的研究结果还显示了所有权类型之间的异质性。本研究为中国股市的公司舞弊治理提供了理论依据。

Overconfidence, short selling, and corporate fraud: Evidence from China

Using data on Chinese A-share listed firms from 2010 to 2020, this study employs a partial observable bivariate probit model and introduces fraud triangle theory to explain the mechanisms of overconfidence, short selling, and corporate fraud. Our findings show that overconfidence offers rationalization to investors and corporations, reduces fraud detection, and increases corporate incentives to commit fraud. Short selling promotes information transparency, increases fraud detection, and reduces the opportunities to commit fraud. Moreover, it moderates the relationship between overconfidence and corporate fraud. In addition, overconfidence and short selling affect different types of fraud (operational, executive, and information disclosure fraud). Furthermore, our results show heterogeneity among the ownership types. This study provides a theoretical basis for corporate fraud governance in China’s stock market.
