- Abstract
Since 2015, the chairpersons or the actual controllers of the companies in China have been encouraging employees to increase shareholdings of their own companies by announcing Fallback Share-raising. This behavior which intends to stabilize or promote the companies’ stock prices seems to be harmless to minority shareholders, however, it can imply that the company is already facing risks and the interests of minority shareholders, especially those who look for quick profits are likely to be harmed. This paper introduces the background and implementation of Fallback Share-raising, then lists several features. Based on these, the paper analyzes the risks for minority shareholders. C&S Paper Company is selected to measure the risks using event study methodology. Finally, the paper summarizes the existing harm and gives some suggestions on how to reduce the hazards of Fallback Share-raising.
