Abstract

Share-pledging has become a widely used financing method for listed companies to meet their capital needs. However, it may also influence the operation risk of companies. Using the annual data from CSMAR and WIND database, we obtain 11,298 listed companies from 2009 to 2019 and examine the impact of controlling shareholder's share-pledging on corporate operation risk. Through Stata16.0, we regress and empirically find that, the share-pledging of controlling shareholder can significantly increase the corporate operation risk based on the double fixed effect model. Furthermore, after considering the different nature of property rights in listed companies, we prove that controlling shareholders' share-pledging has more significantly positive influence on the corporate operation risk in non-SOEs than in SOEs. Our findings can remind listed companies to take reasonable financing means and help regulators formulate policies to protect the rights and interests of minority shareholders.
