Abstract
Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to examine Chinese firms’ long-term value creation derived from cross-border mergers and acquisitions (CBMAs).
Design/methodology/approach – We collected a sample of 140 CBMAs conducted by Chinese firms listed in Shenzhen and Shanghai stock markets between 1997 and 2010. Long-horizon event study methodology was employed to test hypotheses.
Findings – We find Chinese firms gain long-term value from CBMAs. In particular, we find that Chinese firms tend to gain more value from targets from developed countries; and Chinese state-owned firms are more capable of gaining value from CBMAs than Chinese private firms.
