Managerial ownership and the effectiveness of internal control

Abstract

This paper examines the impact of managerial ownership on the effectiveness of internal control in China's stock markets, focusing on the perspective of managerial ownership. The findings reveal a significant quadratic non-linear relationship, characterized by an inverted-U shape, between the level of managerial ownership and the effectiveness of internal control for the overall population of listed companies. Notably, the inverted U-shaped effect of managerial ownership on internal control is observed to be more delayed in non-state-owned listed companies. However, these companies exhibit a stronger incentive effect, and the 'Entrenchment Effects' become apparent at an earlier stage.
