CEIBS Professor of Finance Cong Wang and his co-authors, Prof. Jarrad Harford of University of Washington and
Kuo Zhang of Xiamen University, looked at a sample of US-listed multinational
firms that disclose their foreign cash holdings. The findings show that the
more cash a firm holds overseas, the lower shareholders value that cash. The
researchers also found that firms with large cash holdings overseas tend to
under-invest domestically and over-invest abroad. Read more about Prof. Cong Wang's research on this topic here. |
