Abstract: This paper aims to investigate the moderating effects of corporate governance mechanisms on the financial leverage–profitability relation in emerging market firms. The paper examines the impacts by estimating the empirical model in which a firm’s accounting profitability is a dependent variable, while financial leverage, board size, board independence, CEO duality, CEO ownership, state ownership and the interaction variables are predictors. The paper uses the panel data set of 295 listed firms in Vietnam in the period 2011-2015 and two key econometric methods for panel data, namely, the two-stage least square instrumental variable and general moments method. The paper finds the evidence for the significant and positive effect of board size, board independence and state ownership on the financial leverage–profitability relation. The effect of CEO duality on the financial leverage–profitability relation tends to be negative, and the impact CEO ownership inclines to be positive, although both of them are statistically insignificant. The results are consistent across different estimation methods. This paper is the first investigating the moderating effect of various corporate governance mechanisms on the financial leverage–profitability relationship in emerging market firms.

Abstract: The impact of board gender ersity on firm value is inconclusive. The paper investigates whether a firm’s environmental, social, and governance (ESG) performance mediates the relationship between board gender ersity and firm financial performance. The study employs a s le of 1514 non-financial firms listed on the National Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotations (NASDAQ) and New York Stock Exchanges (NYSE) from 2016 to 2020. It reveals that a firm improves its ESG ratings and financial performance when there are more female directors on its board. When controlling ESG performance, the significant relationship between board gender ersity and firm performance turns insignificant, and ESG performance has a significant positive impact on a firm’s financial performance. These findings confirm the mediating role of ESG performance in the studied relationship. A firm’s management can refer to these findings to employ more women on its board, which creates additional firm financial value through better ESG practices. Investors may incorporate the factors of board gender ersity and corporate ESG performance into their investment decisions.

Abstract: This article investigates the moderating role of board independence in the relationship between debt financing and performance of emerging market firms. We have used an empirical model in which the firm’s accounting profitability is a dependent variable and the independent variables are debt financing, board independence, the interaction variable made of debt financing and board independence as well as various control variables. Our analysis is based on a panel data set of 300 listed firms in Vietnam between 2013 and 2017. Our study finds that debt financing has a significantly negative effect and that board independence reduces the adverse impact of debt financing on accounting profitability. Our results are consistent across different estimation models and methods.

Abstract: The paper aims at investigating the existence of size effect in Vietnamese financial market. Particularly, the relationship between firm size and stock turns would be explored. Having 160 observations of the companies in service sector from 2009 to 2014, the multiple regression model was employed to test that effect. As a result, a significantly negative relationship between firm size and stock returns was studied. Besides, some implications and limitations were also discussed.
