Abstract:
Drawing on agency theory and corporate governance, we first classify the corporate governance provisions within the context of family firms. Then, we probe the influence of family involvement (i.e. family ownership and family management) in corporate governance on the use of governance provisions protecting controlling and noncontrolling owners. Specifically, we suggest that family ownership affects the use of governance provisions protecting controlling and noncontrolling owners. We also suggest that family management will moderate the relationships between family ownership and the use of these governance provisions. Finally, we discuss future research directions and insights for practitioner
