Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Through the business world history, the chief executive officers (CEO's), the chief financial officers (CFO's), managers, and directors... are the main players in using their potentials for the companies, stakeholders' benefits, and profits. The family business represents a major organizational management system in business. Over the past decades, this organizational system has proved a high reputation for its malleability and flexibility regarding the management, the performance, the controlling system, the profitability and the turnovers. Therefore, the family business currently forms a competitive advantage comparing with other several international firms. This research shows that major family-controlled businesses (FCBs) actually outperform other types of businesses. It examines the nature of such family businesses in an attempt to explain why some seem to do so well, and others so poorly. Accordingly, this study examines the ability to apply the relationship between diversification in family business and the CEO's turnovers. The results were obtained after conducting an analysis on a sample of Lebanese family business firms located in Beirut area.

Book Synopsis The Role of Family Involvement on CEO Turnover by : Maximiliano Gonzalez
Download or read book The Role of Family Involvement on CEO Turnover written by Maximiliano Gonzalez and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 45 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Manuscript Type: EmpiricalResearch Question/Issue: How sensitive is CEO turnover to firm performance in the context of family firms?Research Findings/Insights: Using a detailed database of mostly non-listed Colombian firms, we find that family ownership (direct and indirect through pyramidal structure) reduces the probability of CEO turnover when financial performance has been poor, but found the opposite effect when families participate actively on the board of directors. These results hold even when the manager is a family member, although the probability of turnover is lower for a family member. This lower probability does not affect the financial performance of the firm. In other words a benevolent entrenchment of the family CEO seems to occur.Theoretical/Academic Implications: First, the theoretical premise that bad financial performance usually leads to changes in top management has been widely tested around the world; however, this study is among the few to deal with this issue in terms of closely held firms' micro-data. Second, our results contribute to the growing literature on agency problems inside family firms. Third, this study contributes to the empirical literature of corporate governance in family firms for an under-studied region that has gained relevance in the world economy. Practitioner/Policy Implications: Usually family firms are treated as a single unit, ignoring the different ways families may influence governance decisions. This study considers family involvement in three dimensions: management, ownership (direct and indirect), and control, and shows that the impact of family in governance decisions is not uniform and depends largely on the different ways family is involved in business.

Book Synopsis War on Family Property Rights by : Ingyu Oh
Download or read book War on Family Property Rights written by Ingyu Oh and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2022-12-26 with total page 141 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As of 2020 South Korea has 14 firms listed on the global Fortune 500, including Samsung, Hyundai, SK, POSCO and LG. The country along with Japan is also one of the only two countries in Asia that are members of the OECD and its Development Assistance Committee (DAC) simultaneously. Furthermore, Korea boasts of its membership in the seven-country 50-30 Club (countries with a population of more than 50 million and a GDP of $30,000 per capita). However, unlike its official status as one of the most developed economies in the world, it still suffers from the backward struggle between the state and the family firms over the issue of property rights and family successions. The corporate governance issue has damaged the reputation of Korean chaebols (family conglomerates) for many decades as founders, and their families had been imprisoned and/or fined for violating inheritance tax laws and related laws associated with the issue of protecting their family ties. The democratically elected governments in Korea since 1987 have tried to reform the chaebol governance structures to ease asset concentration by family members, although many of those have failed due to corruptive practices between the state and the chaebol. This book spells out the current governance problems within the chaebol, state reform policies and both success and failures of the reforms. It was originally published as a special issue of the Asia Pacific Business Review.
Book Synopsis A Primer on Corporate Governance by : Jose Luis Rivas
Download or read book A Primer on Corporate Governance written by Jose Luis Rivas and published by Business Expert Press. This book was released on 2019-10-07 with total page 110 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mexico is a land inhabited by several indigenous civilizations and was conquered by Spain in 1521. The country is mostly a racial mix between the Spanish and native cultures. It is a traditionalist society where family, religion, and culture play a key role. The role of the marketplace is constrained by the government and local interest groups such as unions, political parties, commerce chambers, and private firms. The market for corporate control is scarce. Corporate governance codes are voluntary. Corporate ownership is concentrated with few institutional investors. Shareholder activism is uncommon. Corporate boards are single tier in nature. CEO duality is common practice. Boards are made mostly of insiders and shareholder representatives. Independent board members hold minority stakes. This book starts by describing the macro context in which Mexico is embedded. We then focus on its corporate governance system: laws, regulatory bodies, code of good governance, stock market and the peculiarities of local business groups. The central part of the book summarizes key characteristics of board structure and networks in the country. The book ends with interviews of two well-known directors and suggestions to move the governance field forward in Mexico.
