Abstract

This paper provides novel evidence of organizational responses in the form of CEO turnover to competition shocks induced by unexpected tariff cuts. We find that the likelihood of CEO turnover increases with unexpected surge in industry competitiveness, and this result is mainly driven by non-exporting firms. Among non-exporting firms, the higher likelihood of CEO turnover is confined to firms with weak governance, high leverage, and in financial distress. Exporting firms, on the other hand, experience increased exports and show no significant CEO turnover changes.
