With the relaxation of restrictions on the investment in China, China has been the most important market when Taiwan's firms make decisions of the foreign investments. Among these, the investment of non-high-tech industries in China is in the majority. Using non-high-tech firms with investing in China from 2000 to 2013, we investigate the association between ownership structure and corporate performance, including accounting and market performance. According to the empirical results, we find a positive and significant relationship between institutional shares and corporate performance. Moreover, the stock ownership of directors and supervisors as well as mangers is conducive to accounting performance but has diverse influence on market performance due to the different functions and relationships with firms. Finally, it is worth noting that firms probably take low operating costs into consideration and hence invest in China, but we find no evidence that there is better performance for the non-high-tech firms with investing in China than those without investing in China. The result implies that the additional operating costs derived from investing in China offset the profits of the lower human resources cost and the broader market. |
