PEREZ ORTEGA, Francisco Eduardo  y  BRIANO TURRENT, Guadalupe del Carmen. The governance and the financial performance in industrial companies from Mexico. Podium [online]. 2024, n.45, pp.177-200. ISSN 2588-0969.  https://doi.org/10.31095/podium.2024.45.11.

This paper aims to analyze the relationship between the governance dimension and the financial performance of 35 listed companies in the industrial sector from the Mexican Stock Exchange during the period 2019-2022. Based on the legitimacy theory the main hypothesis of study establishes that corporate governance mechanisms favor corporate financial performance. Through a study sample composed by 132 yearly observations and a multiple regression analysis, empirical results show that some corporate governance practices, such as the ESR recognition, the separation of COB-CEO positions, the independent directors percentage, the women participation on the board and the protection of the minority shareholders’ interests increase profitability, liquidity and the share price. This work has practical implications for the business sector and regulators regarding corporate governance in Mexico.
