Abstract
This study investigates the effect of CEO power on energy firms’ performance, riskiness, and working capital. Our panel quantile regression estimates based on Pakistan data suggest a positive effect of CEO power on firm performance in lower and middle quantiles. Powerful CEOs mitigate excessive risk-taking when the riskiness of firms reaches certain levels. CEO power is negatively related to working capital when the cash holdings exceed a certain level.
