本文以中国上市公司治理指数(CCGINK)作为反映上市金融机构治理状况的指标,利用面板回归方法,分析了2007—2011年我国上市金融机构公司治理状况对其风险承担的影响。研究发现上市金融机构治理水平与风险承担呈现负相关关系,公司治理分指数股东治理指数和监事会治理指数与上市金融机构的风险承担也呈负相关关系,从而验证了金融危机公司治理层面的制度动因假说。同时进一步研究了股权集中度、股权制衡度、监事会规模、监事会会议次数和监事持股比例对金融机构风险承担的影响。总体来说,我国上市金融机构治理发挥了有效作用,这也是我国金融机构能够幸免于2008年金融危机的根本原因所在,为进一步提高我国上市金融机构治理水平提出相应的对策建议。
