Abstract

As an important part of China’s carbon neutrality plan, the new energy vehicles industry has achieved rapid development in recent years, and several excellent new energy vehicle manufacturing enterprises have emerged, such as BYD. The corporate governance of such enterprises is a topic worthy of study. The purpose of this paper is to examine the relationship between corporate governance factors and corporate performance of Chinese new energy vehicle manufacturing enterprises using publicly traded companies as examples and to make some recommendations on how to improve their corporate governance performance. This research takes thirteen listed new energy vehicle manufacturing enterprises in China’s main Board Market as examples, and the period is 2017-to 2021. Select four independent variables from the corporate governance aspect and three dependent variables to represent corporate performance, adopting descriptive analysis, Pearson correlation analysis, and multiple regression analysis to explore their relationships. The results indicate that board independence positively correlates with company performance, board size and CEO duality negatively correlate with company performance, and board activity has no correlation with company performance. As a result, it is recommended that Chinese new energy vehicle manufacturing businesses maintain a suitable board size, engage independent directors, and decouple the CEO and chairman roles, which will benefit corporate performance to some extent.
