    Board structure in listed firms: evidence from an emerging economy
    (Emerald Group Publishing Ltd, 2014) Oba, Beyza; Tigrel, Elvin; Sener, Pinar
    Purpose - This paper aims to understand the determinants of board structure of listed firms at institutional, industry and firm levels within an emerging economy. At the institutional level, the paper explores laws, managerial culture and the role of state in instituting and endorsing corporate governance practices. At the firm level, ownership patterns (family and non-family), experience in the capital markets, age and size of the firms are studied to find out the relation between these variables and the board structure. Design/methodology/approach - The research domain of the study is listed firms operating on the Istanbul Stock Exchange. The data for the study are collected at two phases; at the first phase, compliance reports, annual reports, articles of association and annual shareholders' meeting reports of each firm in the sample are analyzed. At the second stage, secondary data are used for understanding the dynamics of Turkish institutional context. Findings - The results of this study reveal that boards of directors of listed Turkish firms comply with the governance practices instituted by state agencies, except on issues as independent members and committees that will influence the majority owners' control domain and private benefits. Originality/value - This paper draws attention on institutional context and argues that good governance instruments developed for Anglo-Saxon stock market-controlled business systems provide limited explanation for an emerging economy that is characterized by close cooperation between the state, family-owned businesses and financial markets. The study offers insight to policy makers at a national level, interested in developing corporate governance principles regarding boards of directors of listed firms.

    Does the institutional framework affect the relationship between debt financing and firm performance in emerging countries?
    (Routledge Journals, Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2021) Sener, Pinar; Akben-Selcuk, Elif; Didin-Sonmez, Fatma
    This paper investigates the impact of debt financing on firm performance and how this relationship is affected by the institutional framework in 14 emerging countries. The results show a negative relationship between debt financing and firm performance. However, this negative relationship is reversed in countries with better credit market regulations and more efficient legal systems.

    Is market learning the missing link between family involvement - firm performance relationship? A resource-based perspective
    (Springer, 2017) Yeniaras, Volkan; Sener, Pinar; Unver, Suheyl
    Drawing on previous literature on proposing that there exists a positive relationship between family involvement and firm performance, this study refines the explanatory role of market learning in explaining the relationship between family involvement and firm performance to be conditional to firm age and environmental turbulence. The data from 344 small-medium enterprises show that family involvement is positively related to market exploitation while family involvement is negatively related to market exploration as family firms age. Also, we provide empirical evidence that family involvement is positively related to firm performance in turbulent environments through market exploration irrespective of the firm's age. Conversely, family involvement is positively related to firm performance through market exploitation in less turbulent environments irrespective of firm age. This study provides empirical evidence of the market exploration and exploitation capabilities may be the capabilities that glue family involvement to firm performance.
