The objective of this study is to examine the effect of family ownership and family CEO on the dividend policy of family firms by using the demographic characteristics of the CEO as a moderator. Dividend policy is a decision taken by the firm in determining whether the profits earned by the firm will be distributed to shareholders in the form of dividends or will be reinvested in the company as retained earnings for future internal resources. Using samples from non-financial family firms listed on the Indonesian Stock Exchange in 2013-2017, 93 firms were selected based on adequate data. We also used logit regressions to provide robustness. The results show that family ownership and family CEO have a positive effect on the dividend payout ratio. This finding supports the family income hypothesis. Among CEO demographic characters, CEO age significantly strengthens the positive effect of family CEO on dividend payout ratio. While CEO tenure does not significantly strengthen the positive effect of family CEOs on dividend payout ratios. Meanwhile, leverage, ROA, and firm size significantly affect the dividend payout ratio, but firm age does not significantly affect the dividend payout ratio.

본 연구는 한국의 ICT 산업 분야에서 가족기업의 국제화 결정에 지배구조의 이질성이 미치는 영향을 분석한다. 본 연구에서는 가족기업 소유 지분에 따른 지배구조와 국제화 간의 관계를 규명하기 위해 전망 이론(prospect theory)을 사용하였다. 실증분석 결과, 재무성과가 향상됨에 따라 최대 주주(CEO)는 국제화와 부(-)의 관계가 있는 반면에 다른 가족 구성원은 정(+)의 관계를 나타냄에 따라 국제화에 있어서 가족 구성원의 이질적인 행동을 보여준다. 따라서 본 연구에서 최대 주주(CEO)는 국제화와 관련된 위험 회피 성향이 확인되지만 다른 가족 구성원들은 의사결정권자로서 위험 감수 의사가 있다는 것을 확인하였다. 본 연구의 결과는 국제화에 관련된 가족기업의 전략적 행위를 보다 심도있는 이해를 위해, 가족기업의 본질적인 이질성을 고려해야 한다는 것을 강조한다. 또한, 궁극적인 소유주인 CEO와 다른 가족 구성원 사이의 전략적 행위의 차이를 고려한다면, 가족기업의 지배구조와 국제화의 관계에 대한 연구 결과의 일관성 부족을 설명할 수 있다.

본 연구는 소유와 경영이 철저히 분리되어 있지 않아 지배주주일가가 존재하는 기업이 대다수인 한국기업의 상황에서, 가족임원의 효과에 대해 고찰한다. 가족임원은 기업과 자신을 동일시하고 후손에게 기업을 물려주고자 하는 가족경영자와 일맥상통하는 특성을 가진다. 이와 같이 기업의 장기적 생존과 번영을 중요시하는 가족임원이 이사회 내에 존재한다는 것은 기업의 성과에 긍정적인 영향을 줄 것이다. 한편, 이사회와 대비하여 최고경영자의 측면에서, 전문경영자는 경영능력의 전문성을 장점으로 하지만 사적인 이익의 추구 가능성이라는 단점을 동시에 가지고 있다. 그러나, 이사회 내에 가족임원이 존재하고 있다면 이들이 전문경영자에 대한 원활한 견제의 기능을 가지게 됨으로써 사적 이익 추구라는 단점은 해소되고 경영능력의 전문성이라는 장점을 바탕으로 기업성과에 대해 가족임원이 주는 긍정적인 효과를 더욱 강화시키는 효과를 가질 것이다. 이상의 연구 주제를 2004년부터 2010년까지의 7개년도 firm-year 2,456개의 panel data를 통해 실증하였고, 가설들이 모두 지지되었다.

Purpose - This study aims to examine whether family firm governance is related to long-term corporate survival. To find out whether and why family firms have higher chances of long-term survival compared to non family firms, this study analyzes the relationship between some governance characteristics that are prevalent in family firms and corporate long-term viability. Design/methodology/approach - This study utilizes a sample of 285 family firms listed on the Korea Stock Exchange (KSE) to probe the influence of governance characteristics on corporate survival. This study conducts Cox proportional hazard regression analysis to estimate the influences on the survival duration. Findings - The results indicate that firms with particular governance characteristics show higher long-term survivability. Specifically, the probability of firm's long-term survival is increased when the CEO is the largest shareholder, which may be related to CEO's stewardship attitudes. Research implications or Originality - This study has significance in that it examines the direct causal variables that enhance long-term corporate viability through a large scale empirical examination. Also, the study findings provide some clues as to why certain family firms outlive non-family firms.

In today's financial economics literature, the impact of innovative family ownership and management on firm performance is a prominent concern. In this study, the existence of family firms in the listed sector of Pakistan's economy is investigated. The objective of this study is to examine the performance-oriented relationship of family ownership and active involvement of family member at the CEO position. The theoretical perspectives that underpin this research are agency and stewardship. This analysis used a sample of 315 publicly traded companies from 2009 to 2019. The study's primary independent variables include family influence on ownership and family CEO. Financial performance is the dependent variable that is divided into accounting and market measures. The proxy for accounting measure is return on asset and proxy for market measure is Tobin's Q. This study employs univariate and balanced panel data analysis. For robustness of the analysis random-effects GLS regression is carried out. The empirical results show that that Family Firms outperform Non-Family Firms both in terms of accounting and market measures. In the later part family CEOs firms outperform the firms that have either insider or outsider non-family CEOs. This superior performance is subjected to the positive and statistically significant association between family ownership, management, and financial performance.

This qualitative case study focuses on five small and medium-sized enterprises which have put family-friendly management into successful practice. Through in-depth unstructured interviews with five human resources managers and ten employees, we describe each firm's approach to work-life balance including working hour reductions, breaks, work flexibility, and parental leave to build an overall picture. We also discuss the four key factors of the CEO's role; democratic communication between all staff, the usefulness of family-friendly certification as a starting point; and governmental support for promoting work-life balance at small and medium-sized enterprises. Finally, we suggest three political implications of governmental support, namely CEO education, changing the criteria of family-friendly certification to redefine working hours and work flexibility, and incentives specifically for small to medium-sized enterprises.

본 연구는 외환위기 이후 국내에 법제화된 사외이사제도의 효과에 대해 고찰한다. 사외이사제도는 기업의 소유와 경영이 분리된 상황에서 이기적이고 기회주의적인 경영자를 감시 및 견제해야 한다는 대리인이론을 이론적 근거로 하고 있다. 이에, 먼저 사외이사제도가 대리인비용을 감소시키는 역할을 하고 있는지에 대해 확인한다. 다음으로, 대리인이론이 가정하는 상황과 다른 환경을 제공하는 한국 기업의 특징, 특히 가족경영자 기업에서 이와 같은 대리인비용 감소의 효과가 약화되고 있는지 실증한다. 282개의 기업 자료를 통한 실증결과에 따르면, 사외이사제도가 대리인비용을 감소시키는 기능을 하고 있는 것은 사실이나, 가족경영자 기업에서는 이 효과가 약화되고 있음을 알 수 있었다. 이를 통해, 한국과 같이 대리인이론이 가정하는 상황과 차이를 보이는 경우, 사외이사제도의 맹목적인 도입을 통해 감시와 견제 기능에만 초점을 맞추어서는 안 된다는 시사점을 얻을 수 있다.

This study examined the effects of startup firm's knowledge assets on the effectiveness of their sales strategies, efficiency of sales activities, and management performance, after categorizing these assets into customer knowledge assets and technology knowledge assets. Furthermore, the moderating effects of promotion focus by CEOs and sales managers of startup firms were analyzed. For the analysis, dyadic questionnaire surveys were conducted targeting the CEOs and sales managers of startup firms established at the Gyeongnam Technopark and the KAIST Technology Business Incubation Center in Korea. Hypotheses were verified through structural equation modeling, and moderating effects were identified through ANOVA. CEO's customer knowledge asset strengthened their effectiveness of sales strategies, and sales manager's technology knowledge asset strengthened the efficiency of their sales activities. Also, CEO's effectiveness of sales strategies and sales manager's efficiency of sales activities have been found to enhance startup firm's management performance. Meanwhile, the moderating effect of promotion focus strengthened CEO's effectiveness of sales strategies through CEO's customer knowledge asset and interaction as CEO's promotion focus level increased, but promotion focus of sales managers did not have any significant interaction effect. This study provides implications by offering empirical evidence on startup firms with regard to knowledge assets.
