The Effect of Government Ownership on Tax Avoidance in Emerging Chinese Markets

 

ABSTRACT:

Ownership structure has an important effect on tax avoidance (Desai and Dharmapala, 2008). This study investigates the effects of central government-controlling and local government-controlling shareholders on tax avoidance in the Chinese stock market. The sample is listed companies in the Chinese stock market from 2004 to 2010. The results are: (1) the central government-controlling shareholder is positively associated with tax avoidance. In addition, the positive relation is driven by 15% favourable tax rate; (2) The local government-shareholders are negatively associated with tax avoidance; (3) After the CIT Law took effect, the local government-controlled firms exhibit a higher level of tax avoidance. However, the enactment of CIT Law does not influence tax avoidance of the central government-controlled firms after excluding sample with 15% favorable tax rate. This study extends the literature on the effect of controlling shareholders on tax avoidance and how the relations evolve with the enactment of corporate income tax law reform in an emerging market.The results also demonstrate the distinct impact of government intervention on corporate tax policies.
