Abstract

With the advancement of social and economic status, female members play an increasingly important role in modern business management, and the decision-making behavior and governance characteristics of female executives have attracted more and more attention in academic studies. This paper focuses on the impact of gender diversity on cash holdings and corporate value. The empirical test based on the panel data of A-share listed companies from 2008 to 2016 shows that: cash holdings and corporate value have an obvious inverted U-shaped relationship. The proportion of senior executive gender diversity has a significant positive impact on corporate value, but when the cash holdings are getting high, the role of senior executive gender diversity on corporate value will be significantly weakened. Further study shows that under the influence of different financing constraints, the relationship among gender diversity, cash holdings and firm value is different. This paper enriches the research on cash holding and enterprise value from the perspective of executive gender diversity and contributes new knowledge to improve management structure and performance.
