Abstract

We explore the impact of institutional investors on firm performance by using the data of the Chinese capital market from 2007 to 2020. We find that a higher proportion of institutional investors can lead to a better firm performance of listed companies. It means that institutional investors’ shareholding can significantly promote the performance of listed companies. The above findings are tested in a series of robustness tests, such as adopting the next period of firm performance and adding more control variables into our regression model. Our findings provide a notion that institutional investors are playing a more and more important corporate governance role in emerging markets, such as the Chinese stock market.
