本研究之研究對象與研究期間為2008年至2015年本國上市(櫃)之非金融保險公司為樣本。以Heckman (1979) 的兩階段迴歸法 (two-stage method) 探討董監事責任險 (以下簡稱D&O責任保險)、家族企業與公司績效之關聯性,並進一步探討已投保D&O責任保險之公司,其投保金額、家族企業與公司績效之關聯性。實證結果顯示 (1) 相較於未投保公司,投保D&O責任保險之公司,其公司績效較差。(2) 已投保D&O責任保險之公司,其投保金額越大,公司績效也越差。(3) 相較於其他企業,投保D&O責任保險之家族企業,其公司績效較佳。綜上所述,企業購買D&O責任保險及購買D&O責任保險之金額高低,皆會影響公司績效之水準,且家族企業之公司績效相對於非家族企業較佳。
This study uses non-financial and non-insurance publicly listed firms in Taiwan as sample and the sample period is from 2008 to 2015. This study employs Heckman (1979) two-stage method to investigate the relationship between directors’ and officers’ (hereafter D&O) liability insurance, family-owned businesses and corporate performance. In addition, this study examines the effects of the coverage amount of the D&O liability insurance and family-owned businesses on corporate performance. The empirical evidence shows that compare with non-purchasers’ insurance companies, corporate performance of purchasers tends to be worse than then non-purchasers. Furthermore, the more the coverage amount of the liability insurance, the lower of the corporate performance. However, family-owned firms with D&O liability insurance are more likely to demonstrate better firm performance than non-family-owned firms. Overall, the purchase and the coverage amount of D&O liability insurance and family-owned firms could all affect the level of the corporate performance.
