英文摘要:

      In this paper, the selection mechanism of top executives is put under the research of managerial overconfidence behavior. An empirical research analyzes the managerial overconfidence behaviors and their impact on the company‘s merger and acquisition (M&A) decision in China‘s two types of listed companies such as the state-owned enterprises and private companies. Results show that two types of company executives have overconfidence behaviors with a promoting impact on frequent mergers and acquisitions. Moreover, managers in state-owned listed companies are more prone to overconfidence to promote M&A than executives in private listed companies. The study finds that executives source, personal characteristics, company‘s scale and corporate governance are the main factors that influence the executive overconfidence degree and M&A decision behaviors in both the state-owned enterprises and private companies. These conclusions are of great significance to the scientific decision-making of M&A and the governance of blind M&A. 
