Description当前，上市公司的盈余管理问题已是我国资本市场中普遍存在的突出问题。一般来说，一些企业为了满足资本市场对于上市、增发等条件的要求,以及为有效推动企业的并购、重组等行为的顺利实现,甚至为了谋求公司管理层的个别利益,往往运用盈余管理等举措实施公司财报及关键指标的粉饰修正，让不知情的股民蒙受一定的损失。普遍分析显示，我国股市中民营企业比其他企业遭遇的问题和压力更多、更大、更突出,因此民营企业从客观上来说拥有更强的盈余管理动机。而从当前我国资本市场的实际情况来看，我国相关专家学者对盈余管理的系统性深入研究，一般都瞄准了上市企业群体或持续亏损企业，对盈余管理的研究不系统、不全面、不深入，这将对我国进一步提升盈余管理监管水平构成一定不利影响。当前，由于我国民企在自身管理及发展动力方面的特殊性,我国民企的管理、盈余管理特点和国外上市公司还存在着很大的不同,进一步深入研究我国民企上市公司自身管理方面的突出特点，以及其对企业盈余管理等方面的深层次影响,有助于监管层对症下药，更有针对性地研究出台全新的监管措施,进一步提升管理水平。这还可以为公司发展的决策层及相关会计信息使用人员提供一定的决策参考, 因此其拥有十分重要的意义。
本文首先认真总结分析了有关上市企业治理结构和盈余管理等方面的历史文献资料，依托当前资本市场上普遍运用的委托代理、内部人控制和契约等理论，系统研究了我国民企上市公司在自身治理结构方面的突出特征以及其对盈余管理方面所构成影响的深层次原理。在此基础上，本文通过2015-2017年我国上市企业数据，基于截面Jones模型对民营企业和非民营企业盈余管理程度进行测算和比较分析，发现民营企业盈余管理程度更高；从四个层面系统研究民企公司自身的治理结构突出特点,设立回归模型论证了民营企业独特的公司治理结构特征对盈余管理程度确实会产生影响；最后,本文进一步利用修正的费尔萨姆一奥尔森估价模型对民营上市公司盈余管理有公司价值的关系进行了验证，发现两者具有显著相关性。

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在日趋复杂动态的环境中，如何提高企业的绩效不仅是企业家最感兴趣的事情，也是众多学者进行企业管理方面研究的落脚点。从目前战略执行力的研究现状来看，一些学者对战略执行力的性质和构成进行了研究，并取得了一定的成果。但这些研究多为描述性分析，实证研究较少，且较为分散，尚未形成较为完整的分析框架。对于战略执行力、员工生产力与企业绩效关系的研究则更少。因此，本研究将通过对现有文献的分析和梳理，研究战略执行的本质及其构成并进一步研究战略执行力与企业绩效的关系及其作用机理。

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。
