Corporate Governance and Tunneling: Empirical Evidence From Turkey
(Economics Bulletin, 2018) Akben Selçuk, Elif; Sener, Pınar
This study investigates whether internal governance mechanisms affect tunneling through intercorporate loans for a sample of Turkish listed non-financial firms over the period 2006 to 2014. While the findings reveal a significant and positive relationship between state ownership and tunneling and a significant and negative relationship between foreign ownership and tunneling the relationship between family ownership and tunneling is non-linear. In addition while board size is negatively associated with tunneling independent directors do not prevent the embezzlement of resources. Furthermore the results indicate that while older firms firms with family chairman and higher growth opportunities are more likely to engage in tunneling activities firm size high cash holding leverage and financial distress do not affect tunneling.

Cash Holdings and Corporate Governance: Evidence From Turkey
(IGI Global, 2019) Akben Selçuk, Elif; Şener, Pınar
This chapter investigates the empirical factors affecting corporate cash holdings with special emphasis on corporate governance variables for a sample of Turkish-listed nonfinancial firms over the period 2006 to 2010. The findings reveal a significant non-linear relation between family ownership and cash holdings. In addition, while board structure does not significantly affect the level of cash holdings, tunneling increases cash reserves of firms. Furthermore, the results indicate that cash flow, leverage, other liquid assets that can be used as cash substitutes, the degree of tangibility of assets, and firm size are important in determining cash holdings among Turkish companies.

Does governance affect corporate diversification behaviour in emerging markets?
(Routledge Journals, Taylor & Francıs Ltd, 2020) Sener, Pınar; Akben Selçuk, Elif
This paper investigates the role of firm-level and country-level governance on corporate diversification behaviour in emerging markets. The results show that firms with combined leadership structure are more diversified while firms with more independent directors are less diversified. There is a U-shaped relationship between ownership concentration and diversification. No significant association between country-level shareholder protection and diversification is demonstrated.
