The Effects Of Foreign Ownership On Corporate Risk Findings From Quantile Regression And FSQCA

Abstract

The study investigates the correlation between foreign ownership and corporate risk at 147 listed firms in Vietnam from 2015 to 2019. Quantile regression and fuzzy-set Qualitative Comparative Analysis (fsQCA) technique method are applied to examine this relationship. Although the findings reveal that foreign ownership has an impact on corporate risk, the direction of this impact varies depending on the specific conditions. These empirical results have significant implications for firms in managing risks through effective policies related to foreign ownership. The findings will also enable foreign investors to assess the risk level of their investments when analyzing the current situation of a given firm, thereby adjusting their investment capital appropriately.
