內(nèi)容提要:
This study examines the stock market reaction to Norges Bank Investment Management’s (NBIM) publicly disclosed voting intentions ahead of its portfolio companies’ annual general meetings (AGMs). We categorize NBIM’s voting intention as “dissent” when it disagrees with the management’s vote recommendation for a proxy proposal at the forthcoming AGM. We analyze market reaction to NBIM’s announcement of dissent votes to proposals where the votes are expected to be contentious, i.e., those passing or failing by a small margin at the AGM. We document positive abnormal returns around the announcement of dissent voting intentions. The returns are higher for portfolio firms located in countries with weaker corporate governance structures, when NBIM owns a larger block of shares, and among proposals concerning financing and investment activities. Our results support the notion that investors view dissent votes by an influential institutional shareholder as value-enhancing, especially when these votes could potentially change the voting outcome. This study contributes to the ongoing discussion about enhancing the transparency of institutional investors’ voting practices.
本研究探討了挪威中央銀行投資管理局在其投資組合公司年度股東大會(huì)前公開(kāi)披露的投票意向?qū)善笔袌?chǎng)反應(yīng)的影響。我們將NBIM對(duì)代理提案的投票意向分類(lèi)為“異議”,即當(dāng)其與管理層在即將舉行的AGM上對(duì)某項(xiàng)代理提案的投票建議不一致時(shí)。我們分析了市場(chǎng)對(duì)NBIM公布的對(duì)有爭(zhēng)議性提案的異議投票意向的反應(yīng),即那些在A(yíng)GM上預(yù)計(jì)以微小差距通過(guò)或失敗的提案。我們記錄到在公布異議投票意向時(shí),股票出現(xiàn)正的異常收益。這些收益在公司所處的公司治理結(jié)構(gòu)較弱的國(guó)家、NBIM擁有較大股份的投資組合公司以及涉及融資和投資活動(dòng)的提案中更為顯著。我們的研究結(jié)果支持這樣一個(gè)觀(guān)點(diǎn):投資者認(rèn)為有影響力的機(jī)構(gòu)股東的異議投票有助于增值,特別是當(dāng)這些投票有可能改變投票結(jié)果時(shí)。本研究對(duì)于加強(qiáng)機(jī)構(gòu)投資者投票實(shí)踐透明度的討論具有貢獻(xiàn)。
