Abstract

This study examines if higher level of transparency is associated with higher level of efficiency with the efficiency among NPOs measured by the percentage of the donation from public used for charity program purposes or for the mission of an NPO in China. Using 14,183 observations from the year of 2010 to 2015, we utilized a pooled ordinary least square model (OLS), a fixed effect model (FE) and a dynamic panel model with a first-differenced generalized method of moments estimation (GMM). The results showed that NPOs with higher level of transparency are associated with higher level of efficiency. Our findings have valuable policy implication for NPO regulation and management.
