Ive noticed that increasing shareholder engagement has become more necessary now that investors are requiring more fluent communication with the board or greater access to detailed information about topics such as human capital management or climate change. This finding consistent with prior studies [15, 56] that indicated a negative relationship between CEO dual and firm performance, against to this result the studies [70] and [15] found that duality positively related to firm performance. To address the study objective, the researcher used panel data of 11,634 samples of Chinese listed firms from 2010 to 2018. J Indian Bus Res 10(1):232, Kumar P, Zattoni A (2018) Corporate governance, firm performance, and managerial incentives: corporate governance.

Kim HA, Choi SU, Choi W (2019) Managerial overconfidence and firm profitability, Asia-Pacific. To deal with these problems, the firm may organize internal governance mechanisms, and in this section, the study provides a review of research focused on this specific aspect of corporate governance. The basic rationale of corporate governance is to increase the performance of companies by structuring and sustaining incentives that initiate corporate managers to maximize firms operational efficiency, return on assets, and long-term firm growth through limiting managers abuse of power over corporate resources. Literature suggests that when leverage increases, managers may invest in high-risk projects in order to meet interest payments; this action leads lenders to monitor more closely the managers action and decision to reduce the agency cost. Therefore, firm size affects the performance of firms. Ive found these goals can only come to fruition if the board of directors is effective. The result indicated in Table 3 PMC and firm performance (ROA) relationship was positive, but statistically insignificant. The majority of studies in the corporate governance field deal with internal problems associated with managerial opportunism, misalignment of objectives of managers and stakeholders. Sloan Manag Rev 33:717, Sami H, Wang J, Zhou H (2011) Corporate governance and operating performance of Chinese listed firms. [57] and Bozec [10] also reported that external market discipline affects the internal CG role on firm performance. Thus, the study includes both internal and external CG mechanisms to broadly show the connection of these components. This means the behavior of overconfident executives may affect controlling and monitoring role of internal/external CG mechanisms. On the other hand, local communities often expect their concerns to be taken into consideration by the companies that surround them, like protecting nature, avoiding polluting the area and taking care of common spaces, among other concerns. To measure MOC, several researchers attempt to use different proxies, for instance CEOs shareholdings [61] and [46]; mass media comments [11], corporate earnings forecast [36], executive compensation [38], and managers individual characteristics index [53]. Boards of directors are the primary force determining corporate governance. Larger organizations often use corporate governance mechanisms to manage their businesses because of their size and complexity. Ownership can affect the managerial behavioral bias in different ways, for instance, when CEOs of the firm become overconfident for a certain time, the block ownership controlling attention is weakened [20], and owners trust the internal managers that may damage the performance of the firms in an emerging market where external market control is weak. Econ Model 40(C):111, OECD (2004). Market-Based Corporate Governance System: A system relying on the investors of a firm to exert control over how the corporation is to be managed. On the other hand, stewardship theory suggests that managers are good stewards of company resources, which could benefit a firm [9]. Hence, overconfident managers have better in accessing debt rather than rational managers in the context of China that leads creditors to allow to follow and influence the firm investments through collecting information about the firm and supervise the firms directly or indirectly. Irrational behavior of management resulting from behavioral biases of executive managers is a great challenge in corporate governance [44].

Herb Allen was elected as a Director of The Coca-Cola Company in 2021. Managers are more focused on enhancing productivity that is more likely to reduce cost and increase firm performance. This finding is supported by the suggestion that CEO overconfidence weakens the monitoring and controlling role of concentrated shareholders. Behavioral decision theory [94] suggests that overconfidence, as one type of cognitive bias, encourages decision-makers to overestimate their information and problem-solving capabilities and underestimates the uncertainties facing their firms and the potential losses from litigation associated with claims against them.

These can be separated into two main systems (Shleifer and Vishny, 1997): large-shareholder control systems, such as those in Germany, France or Spain, and market con-trol systems, such as those in the USA and the UK. Similarly, Shleifer and Vishny [80] argue that large share blocks reduce managerial opportunism, resulting in lower agency conflicts between management and shareholders. Creating long-term shareholder value is facilitated by In particular, following the stock market crash in 1929, scholars began to argue for corporate governance mechanisms that would allow shareholders to keep companies in check.

This study suggests that in high competition, the selling prices of products or services are more likely to fall because managers are concerned with their economic interest, which may tie up with firm performance. Moreover, the empirical results also showed managerial overconfidence negatively influences the relationship of board independence, dual leadership, and ownership concentration with firm performance. It predicts that managerial overconfidence moderates the relation of product market competition and firm performance.

Thus, the study used internal CG measures; independent board, dual leadership, ownership concentration, and product-market competition, and debt financing as a proxy of external CG measures. This study used CG mechanisms measures internal and external corporate governance, which is represented by independent board, dual board leadership, ownership concentration as measure of internal CG and debt financing and product market competition as an external CG measures. Previous studies measure it through different methods, such as market concentration, product substitutability and market size. As a result, at some level of ownership concentration the distinction between insiders and outsiders becomes unclear, and block-holders, no matter what their identity is, may have strong incentives to switch resources to the ways that make them better off at the cost of other shareholders. A large number of empirical studies are undertaken to verify whether independent directors perform their governance functions effectively or not, but their results are still inconclusive. Furthermore, this study briefly indicated how managerial behavioral bias can influence the monitoring, controlling, and corporate decisions of corporate firms in Chinese listed firms. The original data are obtained from the CSMAR, and the data are collected manually to supplement the missing value. In line with this Khajavi and Dehghani, [44] found that as the number of internal board increases, the managerial overconfidence bias will increase in Tehran Stock Exchange during 20062012. Crisis management is increasingly relevant due to the high frequency and speed with which crises occur. The ownership structure is which has a profound effect on business strategy and performance. Therefore, the existence of CG mechanisms aims to eliminate or reduce the effect of agency and asymmetric information on the CEOs decisions [62]. As agency theory perspective boards of directors, particularly independent boards are put in place to monitor managers on behalf of shareholders [59]. In the perspective of resource dependence theory, an independent director is often linked firm to outside environments, who are non-management members of the board. J Bus 59:197216.

In line with this definition, many previous studies used a proportion of independent directors to measure board independence [56, 79].
