Abstract

The aim of this study is to investigate the relationship between ownership structure and economic performance criteria of companies listed on Tehran Stock Exchange. This study is a descriptive- applied research that reviews the cross-sectional data relating to 114 listed companies between 1387-1393. Multivariate regression is used to analyze the effect of each of these factors on economic performance.The results show that from three applied independent variables in the regression model, there is a significant relationship in a 95% confidence level between Institutional ownership and property management and economic value added and modified economic value added but there is not any relationship between ownership concentration variable and economic performance criteria. The obtained determination coefficient for the above relationship shows that the independent variables explain only part of the economic performance, and investors need to consider other factors as well to evaluate the economic performance of the company.
