Description房地产上市公司业绩的好坏，不仅仅对证券市场产生很深的影响，也关联中国的金融、经济、以及社会稳定。房地产资金需求大，更多是依靠贷款。财务杠杆是双刃剑，一方面给企业带来更高的效益，另一方面也带来更多的风险，导致绩效的下降。以往国内外学者对房地产资本结构与企业绩效之间关系研究较多，本文考虑到房地产行业会计核算的特殊性以及有息负债自身特点，结合目前国家对房地产“三条红线”的调控，在对房地产企业有息负债结构和绩效现状分析基础上，拟以2009年-2019年我国A股房地产上市公司作为研究对象，研究房地产公司有息负债结构与企业绩效之间的关系。提出并验证了7个假设：我国房地产上市公司净负债率与经营绩效呈倒U形相关关系；有息负债短期借债比与经营绩效呈倒U形相关关系；有息负债长期借债比与经营绩效呈倒U形相关关系；银行贷款占比与经营绩效呈倒U形相关关系；上市非国有房地产企业的净负债率对经营绩效的倒U形关系比国有企业更显著；严格的土地政策下，上市房地产企业的净负债率对经营绩效的倒U形关系比从宽的土地政策下更显著；严格的货币政策下，上市房地产企业的净负债率对经营绩效的倒U形关系比从宽的货币政策下更显著。本文建立模型进行基本回归，然后进行了稳健性检验，再进一步计算出极值点，寻找最优的有息负债结构。最后结合房地产行业未来趋势，研究通过哪些途径优化企业有息负债结构，并提出了需要进一步解决的问题，为后续研究指明了方向。

Description
Chinese commercial banks have experienced a period of fast and stable development since 2007. The adoption of a comprehensive enterprise risk management (ERM) system based on the Basel Accords was a significant event for the banking supervisory authority and the commercial banks during this period. This study investigates the impact of ERM adoption on the financial performance of the commercial banks as well as the underlying mechanisms using longitudinal data of 96 commercial banks from 2007 to 2016. Results from quantitative analyses suggest the following findings. First, ERM adoption had a positive impact on commercial banks’ financial performance after controlling for the negative impacts of factors such as macro economic conditions and fiscal and monetary policies. Second, although this positive impact was partially attributed to increased risk appetite after the adoption of ERM, results show that ERM adoption also increased risk-adjusted financial performance. Lastly, ERM adoption improved commercial banks’ competence in risk management, as indicated by their sensitivity of financial returns to risk exposures. The above findings also received support from interviews and surveys of senior executives of commercial banks and officials of the banking supervisory authorities.
This study contributes to the understanding of how the adoption of ERM influences the financial performance of Chinese commercial banks, and has important practical implications. Based on the empirical findings, I recommend all commercial banks in China to adopt and implement ERM so that they can better cope with the challenges presented by macroeconomic uncertainty, marketization, and internationalization. In the process, it is critical for them to understand the mechanisms through which ERM influences their performance. Meanwhile, they shall be aware of the operational costs associated with the initial adoption of ERM, learn from the experiences of those that have already adopted ERM, and have a long-term orientation about performance effect of ERM adoption. Supervisory authorities can also play a key role in guiding commercial banks to be more effective and efficient in the adoption of ERM.

Description
With the increasing aging population in China, the public's emphasis on health has been on the rise. Many innovative pharmaceutical companies have undertaken multiple rounds of financing, with some going public through IPOs. As a high-tech industry, it is essential to study the relationship between the level of corporate publicity and the financing process.This study collected information on the number of promotional articles, timing, and platforms of dozens of pharmaceutical companies that have already gone public through IPOs using Python. An analysis was conducted on the temporal variations of promotional articles for ten representative companies. It was found that the number of promotional articles experienced a significant increase in the month of IPO or the month before, and remained relatively high even after the IPO.
Furthermore, the Pearson correlation coefficient method was used to analyze the correlation between the number of promotional articles and various stages of financing. The study found a positive correlation between the daily average number of promotional articles before IPO and the final financing amount. Additionally, a strong positive correlation was observed between the daily average number of promotional articles from 7 days before IPO to IPO day and the turnover rate on IPO day. Grey correlation analysis was also employed to analyze the impact of publicity on the financing amount of each
ii
financing round, revealing that the financing round and the Shanghai Composite Index had a significant influence.
Finally, a multiple regression analysis was conducted to examine the relationship between the pre-IPO financing scale, IPO-day trading amount, and the level of corporate publicity. The regression results indicated that the pre-IPO financing scale was mainly influenced by the number of promotional articles in the 7 days preceding IPO, particularly for pharmaceutical companies listed on the A-share market. Moreover, a negative correlation was observed between the financing round and the financing amount, particularly among companies that experienced a decline in share price on the IPO day. However, the study found a weak association between the IPO-day trading amount and the level of corporate publicity, primarily observed among pharmaceutical companies listed on the A-share market.

Description竞争日益激烈的市场环境对企业管理者提出了更高的挑战，首席执行官(CEO)作为企业管理层的核心，其个人特征对企业绩效有着重要影响。已有研究主要基于高阶理论，系统研究了CEO具体特征对企业战略选择及其绩效的影响。但是已有研究较为零散，并且大多数集中在CEO人口统计学特征，对其政治联系、受教育年限、社会关系和人格特质等关注较少。基于此，本文结合高阶理论和信号理论，深入分析CEO个人特征对其绩效的影响，并且探讨了CEO结构权力在CEO个人特征与其绩效关系之间发挥的调节作用。
在文献回顾和案例研究基础上，首先，从CEO人口统计学特征、政治联系、受教育年限、职业特征、社会关系和人格特质等6个维度构建了CEO个人特征指标，将CEO上任后前3年营业收入年均增长率和利润年均增长率作为衡量CEO业绩的衡量指标，并提出了10个研究假设。其次，基于问卷调查数据，采用多元线性回归方法，对研究假设进行了验证和分析。实证结果表明，CEO性别、政治联系、受教育年限、社会关系和人格特质（外向性、开放性和宜人性）均对CEO绩效具有显著影响，而CEO年龄和多样化的职业特征对其绩效具有显著的负向影响。此外，CEO的结构权力在受教育年限、社会关系与CEO绩效之间的关系中发挥着显著的正向调节作用，而在多样化职业特征与其绩效之间发挥着显著的负向调节作用。最后，本文从CEO多维度个人特征构建和CEO结构权力两方面深入阐述了理论贡献，结合企业实践提供了可操作化的建议和对策，并提出了本文存在的不足及未来研究展望。

Description当前，民营企业已成为中国重要支撑力量，而未来5到10年，约有300多万家民营企业面临传承困境。但学术研究领域在传承整体框架、配套机制建设方面有完整论述、有成功案例的所见不多。首先，针对以上民营企业的传承现状，本文将研究、回答五个问题：1、成功传承的标准和要素是什么？2、传承模式有哪几种，每种模式配套的传承机制是什么，该如何建立？3、民营企业应选择何种传承模式，如何选择？4、民营企业的整套传承方案如何落地搭建？5、是否有普适性的、可借鉴的民营企业传承模型，包含哪些要素？
其次，本文主要使用文献研究、案例研究、实证分析，选取中、美、德、日四家不同传承阶段、不同传承模式的知名民营企业，对其传承情况进行深入研究。在此基础上，归纳总结出传承的关键要素，对前述五个问题进行系统解答。同时，本文创新性地结合理论研究、案例研究及企业实践，提出适合我国大部分民营企业的传承全周期管理框架。
最后，根据以上研究，本文总结出关于中国民营企业传承的八大结论及建议：1、本质：权力的交接和义务的传递；2、两大风险：继任风险（继任人的能力要求）、代理风险（继任人对企业核心理念的意愿/忠诚度）；3、降低风险的四大机制：领袖锻造、人才梯队、管控治理、激励机制；4、两大成功要素：“选领袖”和“建机制”；5、四大机制是并行推进、相辅相成的，要尽早构建、持续优化；6、三大模式：家族成员继承、内生培养经理人、外聘职业经理人；7、民营企业传承模型包含七大要素、五大步骤；8、民营企业在制定传承方案时，除了要注意传承模型中的要素，还要注意其他关键要素。
