主持人：熊枫，厦门大学管理学院、财务管理与会计研究院助理教授
论文摘要：
Employing a large sample of 17,698 firms across 42 countries spanning the years 2000 to 2015, we show that foreign institutional ownership (FIO) positively influences corporate risk-taking, and this positive relation is achieved through the monitoring channel and international diversification channel. In addition, FIO is found to be a substitute for country-level corporate governance in determining corporate risk-taking, indicating that foreign institutional investors play a significant role in motivating managers to take risk in countries with weaker corporate governance. Various robustness tests and careful considerations of endogeneity confirm our main conclusions.
