Staggered boards, agency costs and stock price crash risk: Evidence from China
In this study, we leverage unique, hand-collected data to explore the impact of staggered boards on the likelihood of future stock price crashes. Our analysis shows that companies with staggered boards are at a higher risk of future stock price crashes compared to their counterparts with non-staggered boards, particularly in firms with elevated agency costs and those not state-owned. Additionally, we find that staggered boards exacerbate this risk by failing in their monitoring and advisory capacities. Evidence of this failure emerges through various indicators of diminished oversight, including managerial opportunism, financial reporting manipulation, insider trading, and a rise in both investment and operational inefficiencies. This study not only contributes to the ongoing debate about the implications of staggered boards but also sheds new light on the associated agency costs.

The Journal publishes high quality, insightful, well-written papers that explore current and new issues in international finance. Papers that foster dialogue, innovation, and intellectual risk-taking in financial studies; as well as shed light on the interaction between finance and broader societal concerns are particularly appreciated. The Journal welcomes submissions that seek to expand the boundaries of academic finance and otherwise challenge the discipline. Papers studying finance using a variety of methodologies; as well as interdisciplinary studies will be considered for publication. Papers that examine topical issues using extensive international data sets are welcome. Single-country studies can also be considered for publication provided that they develop novel methodological and theoretical approaches or fall within the Journal''s priority themes. It is especially important that single-country studies communicate to the reader why the particular chosen country is especially relevant to the issue being investigated. [...] The scope of topics that are most interesting to RIBAF readers include the following: -Financial markets and institutions -Financial practices and sustainability -The impact of national culture on finance -The impact of formal and informal institutions on finance -Privatizations, public financing, and nonprofit issues in finance -Interdisciplinary financial studies -Finance and international development -International financial crises and regulation -Financialization studies -International financial integration and architecture -Behavioral aspects in finance -Consumer finance -Methodologies and conceptualization issues related to finance
