Abstract
본 연구는 2000년부터 2006년까지 총 7년의 비금융 상장제조업체를 대상으로 가족기업을 다양한 기준(총 8가지)에 의하여 구분하여 가족기업이 기업성과와 어떠한 관련성을 가지는 가를 검증하는 것을 목적으로 진행하였다. 가족기업의 정의는 아직 명확히 정립되지 않고 있으며, 특히 국내에서는 가족기업 관련 연구가 매우 미비한 실정이다. 분석 결과, 가족기업은 기업성과 측정치(Tobin`s Q and MTB)와 음(-)의 관련성을 보였다. 즉, 가족기업은 비가족기업에 비하여 기업성과가 좋지 않은 것으로 나타났다. 또한 가족기업에서 비가족기업으로 전환된 기업의 경우 기업성과가 호전되는 것을 발견하였다. 이러한 결과는 한국의 가족기업의 경우 비가족기업에 비하여 대리인비용이 상당부분 존재하기 때문이라고 해석된다. This study investigates the impact of family firm on performance and extend it by studying firm that transitioned from family-firm to non-family firms, and vice versa, using a data set of Korean firms. From a sample of 3,440 firms listed on the stock market over a seven-year period (2000-2006), the group of non-family firms reported better performance than the group of family firms. Two distinct measures of firm performance were employed-Tobin`s Q and MTB (market-to-book) ratios-to test the mean differences between the two sample groups. The results were in line with each of our regression models. The findings support our hypothesis, which posits that family firms do not perform better than non-family firms in contrast to the findings of Martinez et al (2007), Villalonga, and Amit (2006), who find that family firms perform significantly better. Our hypothesis is supported by the fact that there is a negative relationship between firm performance and the transition from non-family ownership to family ownership.
