Abstract

We studied the impact of family ownership and management on Indian family firm performance by using a sample of companies listed on the National Stock Exchange of India (NSE) 500 from 2011–2020. The findings using panel data analysis demonstrate that family ownership positively impacts the accounting (ROA) and market (Tobin’s q) measures of firm performance in our sample. Further, there is empirical evidence that family management is positively associated with firm performance using ROA but negatively related to TQ with the study showing that founder-managed firms outperform descendent or professionally managed family firms in the Indian context. The study is unique in understanding the ways in which family businesses perform, behave and add value to the shareholders by analysing a dataset of listed companies for ten years.
