This exploratory study aims to analyse how and whether family involvement in the top management team of listed family firms affects post-IPO survival on capital markets. We tested our hypotheses on a data set of listed family firms over the period 2000–2011 using survival analysis. Our findings suggest that a higher number of family members in the top management team reduces the likelihood of post-IPO survival, but the relationship is affected by a family member as CEO. The number of generations is also negatively correlated with survival.

Abstract

This exploratory study aims to analyse how and whether family involvement in the top management team of listed family firms affects post-IPO survival on capital markets. We tested our hypotheses on a data set of listed family firms over the period 2000–2011 using survival analysis. Our findings suggest that a higher number of family members in the top management team reduces the likelihood of post-IPO survival, but the relationship is affected by a family member as CEO. The number of generations is also negatively correlated with survival.
