Abstract

The research on the influencing factors of equity incentives is a hot topic for the research of equity incentives in Chinese listed companies. This paper uses the equity incentive level as the explained variable, while uses company size, ownership concentration, equity balance degree, company growth and free cash flow as the explanatory variables to study the influencing factors of equity incentives in listed logistics companies. The research results indicate that company size has significant positive correlation with equity incentives, while ownership concentration has no significant negative correlation with equity incentives, but company growth and equity balance degree have significant negative correlation with equity incentives.
