1中国上市公司独立董事制度完善研究摘要2001年8月21日,中国证监会正式发布《关于上市公司建立独立董事制度的指导意见》,第一次对独立董事的比例、任职资格或条件、提名和选举、职权范围、薪酬等问题做出详细的规定。虽然法律上有了明确的规定,但是在事实上,我国上市公司中独立董事的作用并没有完全发挥,甚至出现了所谓的“花瓶董事”“人情董事”等等现象,导致了独立董事不独立,独立董事根本没有起到应有的作用。在中国特有的国情条件下,上市公司应当如何保护中小股东权益,如何解决内部人控制问题,如何避免关联交易,如何应对市场风险呢?本研究综合运用理论分析和实证研究等多种方法,试图通过探究中国上市公司独立董事制度的现状,发现其制度原因,从制度层面解决中国上市公司独立董事作用发挥不彻底的问题。首先,我们先简单回顾了一下委托代理理论,从委托代理理论分析的角度来引出施行独立董事制度的必要性,进而分析独立董事制度对于上市公司的促进作用。对于独立董事制度,最重要的方面就是保持董事的独立性,我们将从制度层面对其独立性的必要性加以论证。其次,通过中国上市公司的独立董事的运作与国外独立董事运作的比较,我们发现中国独立董事制度在实际运作过程中还存在许多问题,制度的有效性未能得到充分发挥。实证分析研究结果进一步表明:中国上市公司经营业绩在独立董事制度建立前后没有显著变化;中国目前的独立董事薪酬水平还不能起到有效激励作用;由于中国职业经理人市场的不完善,我们也没有相应的名誉激励机制来激励独立董事履行职责。在此基础上,本文分别将从社会层面和企业层面提出了完善中国独立董事制度的对策与建议。由于中国的国情的复杂性,在一项制度的实施过程中往往会遇到意想不到的阻碍,任何一项制度的变迁都会引发既得利益者的阻挠,每次变革的出现都是一次博弈。本研究综合运用了理论分析法与实证分析法,对比了国内外的独立董事2制度运作的情况,试图指出中国上市公司独立董事制度完善之路,一个制度的完善必须有法律作为其根本保障,相关部门应当完善立法,从强制力角度出发将中国的公司治理运作带入正轨。由于专业所限,本研究涉及的一些法律问题可能不是十分的完备,考虑不是十分完善,随着学习的深入,本研究会继续对相关内容进行完善。关键词:中国;独立董事;上市公司;制度;完善AbstractAugust21,2001,ChinaSecuritiesRegulatoryCommissionofficiallyreleasedtheestablishmentofanindependentdirectorsoflistedcompanies,theguidancesystem,thefirsttimetheproportionofindependentdirectors,orconditionsofqualification,nominationandelection,termsofreference,payandotherissuesandmakedetailedprovisions.Althoughthelawhasbeenclearlydefined,butinamatteroffact,China'slistedcompaniesintheroleofindependentdirectorsarenotfullplay,andeventheso-calledvasedirectorcompassionatedirectorandsothephenomenonhasledtoindependentdirectorsisnotindependent,theindependentdirectorsdidnotplayitsduerole.China'suniquenationalconditions,thelistedcompaniesshouldbehowtoprotecttherightsandinterestsofsmallshareholders,howtosolvetheinsidercontrolproblem,howtoavoidrelatedpartytransactions,howtodealwithmarketrisk?Inthisstudytheintegrateduseoftheoreticalanalysisandempiricalresearchinavarietyofmethods,tryingtoexploretheindependentdirectorsoflistedcompaniesinChinathestatusofthesystemandfoundthatthereasonsforitssystemfromthesystemleveltosolvetheindependentdirectorsoflistedcompaniesinChinaplaytheroleofincompleteproblems.Firstofall,let'slookbrieflyreviewedtheprincipal-agenttheory,principal-agenttheoryfromtheperspectiveoftheanalysisleadstothenecessityofanindependentdirectorsystem,thusanalysisoftheindependentdirectorsystemforlistedcompanies3andfacilitatingrole.Fortheindependentdirectorsystem,themostimportantaspectistokeepthedirector'sindependence,theinstitutionallevelwewillneedtobeproofofitsindependence.Secondly,throughtheindependentdirectorsoflistedcompaniesinChinawithforeignindependentdirectorsoftheoperationoftheoperationofcomparison,wefindthattheindependentdirectorsysteminChinaduringtheactualoperationtherearestillmanyproblems,theeffectivenessofthesystemhasnotbeenfullyrealized.Empiricalanalysisresultsfurthershowthat:China'sListedCompaniesoperatingperformancebeforeandaftertheestablishmentofanindependentdirectorsystemhasnotchangedsignificantly;China'scurrentsalarylevelsofindependentdirectorscannotplayaneffectivestimulus;Chineseprofessionalmanagersbecauseofmarketimperfections,wedonotthereputationofthecorrespondingincentivemechanismtoencourageindependentdirectorsperformtheirduties.Onthisbasis,thispaper,thesociallevelandcorporatelevelwillbemadeperfecttheindependentdirectorsystemincountermeasuresandsuggestions.AsChina'snationalconditionsandthecomplexityoftheimplementationprocessinasystemoftenencounterunexpectedobstacles,anyonesystemwilltriggerchangesintheobstructionofvestedinterests,eachtimethereisagameofchange.Inthisstudytheintegrateduseofthetheoreticalanalysisandempiricalanalysis,comparingthedomesticandinternationaloperationoftheindependentdirectorsystem,attemptstoidentifytheindependentdirectorsoflistedcompaniesinChinaimprovetheroadsystem,aimprovementofthesystemmusthaveasitsfundamentalguaranteeofthelaw,therelevantdepartmentsshouldimprovethelegislation,fromthecoercivepowerpointofviewtheoperationofChina'scorporategovernanceintotherighttrack.Duetoprofessionalconstraints,thisstudyinvolvedanumberoflegalissuesmaynotbequitecomplete,giventhenotveryperfect,within-depthstudy,thisstudywillcontinuetoimprovetherelevantcontent.Keywords:China;IndependentDirector;ListedCompany;System;4Improvement目录摘要..........................................................................................................................................................1Abstract....................................................................................................................................................2第一章导论..........................................................................................................................................8第一节研究背景............................................................................................................................81.1.1问题的提出..................................................................................................................8第二节研究意义和目的..............................................................................................................101.2.1研究的
