摘要
以我国2009年到2019年A股非金融类上市公司为研究样本,考察董事高管责任保险对审计延迟的影响及作用路径。研究发现:董事高管责任保险在我国上市公司治理中发挥着积极作用,董事高管责任保险的认购能够显著降低审计延迟,且随着认购时间的增加,其发挥的治理效应有所增强。在采用Heckmam两阶段法、PSM方法、工具变量法以及PS.M+DID方法控制潜在的内生性问题后,该效应依然显著。通过中介效应检验发现,董事高管责任保险通过提高企业内部控制质量和降低代理成本能够实现缩短审计延迟。进一步分析表明,董事高管责任保险还能通过“风险转嫁效应”降低审计延迟;董事高管责任保险对审计延迟的降低作用在分析师跟踪人数多(外部监督机制强)以及高管薪酬较高的情况下更显著。
Taking A-share non-finaneial listed firms in China from 2009 to 2019 as the research sample,this paper studies the impact of Directors'and Officers'liability insurance on audit delay and its'mechanism.Empirical results show that:Directors'and Officers'liability insurance plays a positive governance role in Chinese listed companies,and the purchase of Directors'and Officers'liabilty insurance can shorten audit delay significantly,and the longer the.time,the more governance effect it has.The conclusion is still robust after using Heckman two-stage method、PSM matching method、instrumental variable method and PSM+DID method to control possible endogenous problems.The mediating effct test indicates:Directors'and Officers'liability insurance reduces audit delay by enhancing the internal control quality and reducing agency cost.Further analyses suggest that the impact of Directors'and Officers'liability insurance on audit delay is also its'function of risk transfer effect,and the impact if more significant when a firm has more analysts to follow(with stronger external supervision)and higher executive compensation.
