Performance Differential Between Private and State-Owned Enterprises: An Analysis of Profitability and Leverage

Abstract: ADBI Working Paper 950Phi et al. AbstractThe purpose of this paper is to empirically investigate the relationship between ownership identity and the performance of firms in terms of profitability and solvency. Using crosssectional data covering over 25,000 firms worldwide and by employing various empirical methods, we find robust support for the inferior performance of government enterprises over privately owned firms. Specifically, state-owned enterprises (SOEs) tend to be less profitable than private-owned e… Show more

“…Coming to the ROA and ROE ratio, except for the domestic private sector, both these ratios from SOEs are roughly a half of their FDI counterparts but they are still much higher than that of POEs. Globally, the profitability of SOEs is lower compared to that of POEs that are more productive than SOE counterparts (Phi et al 2019). However, the profitability of Vietnamese POEs is the lowest among three enterprise types.…”

“…The entrenched interests of NOCs and national coal companies, especially in countries that are highly dependent on revenues from fossil fuels, can prevent many of these companies from reducing production (Alsharif et al, 2017;Stevens et al, 2015). They are less subject to short-term competition and market pressures than private companies, meaning they also tend to be less commercially efficient and organizationally nimble (Eller et al, 2011;Phi et al, 2019;Wolf & Pollitt, 2008); this can make it harder to pivot to new lines of business. Most NOCs have an explicit legal mandate to extract fossil fuels and manage the large revenues they generate as their main or sole objective -an additional obstacle that stands in opposition to the goals of a low-carbon transition.…”
