Yet, theory clearly indicates that the combination of relative powers of different stakeholders affects a firm overall performance. Using U.S. state level and state-industry level data, we investigate how output growth is affected by bank branch deregulation and employment protection occurring over 1972-1993. We find that financial liberalization positively impact overall state growth but greater workers' rights affects it ambiguously. At the industry level, however, employment protection promotes those industries that are more knowledge intensive, while the effect of financial liberalization does not differ across industries that vary in external financing dependency. The results hold controlling for changes in shareholders' rights, which itself is not significant. The findings suggest that financial liberalization operates mostly through an efficiency channel, better reallocating resources across sectors, while employment protection creates higher incentives and encourages more sector-specific, human capital investments. Overall, the results show that the strength of stakeholders' protection affects performance through efficiency channels and provide support for a stakeholders' view of corporate governance.IMF Working Papers; Working Paper ;No. 2008/229Banks and bankingState supervisionUnited StatesWorking classUnited StatesCorporate governanceUnited StatesIndustrial productivityUnited StatesBanks and BankingimfLaborimfMacroeconomicsimfLabor ContractsimfBanksimfDepository InstitutionsimfMicro Finance InstitutionsimfMortgagesimfWages, Compensation, and Labor Costs: Public PolicyimfLabor Economics: GeneralimfMacroeconomics: ProductionimfLabourimfincome economicsimfBankingimfEmployment protectionimfMinimum wagesimfProduction growthimfManpower policyimfBanks and bankingimfMinimum wageimfLabor economicsimfProductionimfEconomic theoryimfUnited StatesimfBanks and bankingState supervisionWorking classCorporate governanceIndustrial productivityBanks and BankingLaborMacroeconomicsLabor ContractsBanksDepository InstitutionsMicro Finance InstitutionsMortgagesWages, Compensation, and Labor Costs: Public PolicyLabor Economics: GeneralMacroeconomics: ProductionLabourincome economicsBankingEmployment protectionMinimum wagesProduction growthManpower policyBanks and bankingMinimum wageLabor economicsProductionEconomic theory332.10973Ueda Kenichi1485191Claessens Stijn282431DcWaIMFBOOK9910788345703321Banks and Labor as Stakeholders3716508UNINA
