This award recognizes outstanding scholarship in corporate governance and investor-related issues.

The paper is recognized for its innovative insights and significant contributions to advancing global understanding of corporate governance.

We extend our warmest congratulations to Prof. Li and his collaborators for this remarkable achievement. At HKU Business School, we are committed to world-class research and thought leadership.
