Abstract:Using data on all Fortune-500 firms during 1994-2000, it is found that family (hereafter as: f.) ownership creates value only when the founder (here as: fndr.) serves as CEO of the f. firm or as Chairman with a hired CEO. The findings suggest that the classic owner-manager conflict (as: o-m-confl.) in non-f. firms is more costly than the conflict btw. family and non-family shareholders (as: f-and-non-f. s-hlds.) in fndr-CEO firms. However, the conflict btw. f-and-non-f. s-hlds. in descendant-CEO firms is more costly than the o-m-confl. in non-f. firms.
