摘要
This article examines the effect of the institutional investment horizon on firms' earnings management and the moderating effect of state ownership. Using a sample of Chinese listed companies from 2010 to 2018, we find that a shorter institutional horizon leads to significantly more earnings management. Focusing on the interaction between the institutional horizon and state ownership, we find that the negative effect of short-term institutional shareholdings is weaker in state-owned firms. This article contributes to the existing literature by addressing the relationship between institutional investment horizon, state ownership, and earnings management in emerging capital markets.
