论文摘要:

 

An intriguing feature of the outside director market is that a director can simultaneously work for several companies. Theoretically, I find that the relation between incentives and the number of directorships depends on whether the efforts are substitutive or complementary and the magnitude. When efforts are strongly substitutive, the relation between incentives and the number of directorship is negative while this relation becomes positive when efforts are complementary or slightly substitutive. Moreover, the optimal number of directorships is decreasing in the outside director’s degree of risk aversion, companies' riskiness and increasing in the outside director's ability.
