“…When investors rely on reputational considerations rather than formal equity-based incentives in evaluating the probability of self-serving behavior of managers, the presence of executive share options would have relatively lower weight in terms of the firm's expected cost of capital (Bhagat, McDevitt & McDevitt, 2010). For example, in German and Japanese corporate governance systems, monitoring has been based on relationship-oriented banks rather than an active market for corporate control (Aoki, 2001).…”

“…In particular, these asymmetries have been found to have an inhibitor effect in the growth of SMEs in China (Kanamori et al 2007); also the lack of information and knowledge about markets and consumers constitutes an obstacle in the process of SMEs' expansion (Cardoza and Fornes 2011). These market and state failures have led firms to rely on interpersonal relationships (guanxi) to overcome them and build trust (Bhagat et al 2010, Cai et al 2010.…”

The main conclusion is that SMEs appear to base their international expansion on private capabilities, rather than on support from the government; in addition, the perceived barriers for the international expansion of these firms may be mainly internal, rather than institutional.

“…Consequently, the fundamental contribution of this paper is to develop a conceptual framework based on signaling theory which reflects the complex, and arguably unique, institutional context of China. Bhagat, McDevitt, and McDevitt (2010) argued that there is a need to consider cultural variables and the impact of globalization to develop effective and robust management theories relevant for Asia Pacific countries. Bruton and Lau (2008), in their review of Asian management research, also called for taking account of context-specific conditions in extending and revising theories.…”

Behind film performance in China’s changing institutional context: The impact of signals

et al. 2017

Grounded in signaling theory, this paper investigates the signals reflecting product quality, innovativeness, reputation and cultural background which influence film performance, that is, film survival (duration on cinema screen) and box office success, in China's changing institutional context. This market has grown substantially and still possesses potential for further development. However, China's unique institutional context presents challenges. By examining an expanded range of potential signals, two of which have not previously been examined in the literature, namely imported films and enhanced format film formats such as 3D and IMAX, we develop a conceptual framework and argue that signaling theory needs to be combined with institutional context. Similar to findings for film industries in other countries, we find quality and reputational signals including budget, star power, sequels, and online Asia Pac J Manag (2018) 35:63-95
