Résumé
Cette étude se propose d’étudier l’effet de la présence des investisseurs institutionnels (II) sur le niveau de détention d’actifs liquides dans un contexte d’actionnariat familial. Les résultats empiriques révèlent que les II ayant un horizon d’investissement à long terme et une importante participation au capital sont plus à mêmes de contrôler et limiter l’accumulation d’actifs liquides. Cependant, un comportement d’investissement passif de la part de ces II conduit les dirigeants à privilégier leurs intérêts privés et d’extraire ainsi des rentes à partir de l’accumulation des liquidités. Les résultats montrent également que le contrôle familial peut modérer l’activisme institutionnel et amplifier en contrepartie la passivité de ces investisseurs. En effet, les entreprises familiales peuvent privilégier une coalition de contrôle avec les II passifs pour faciliter l’expropriation des intérêts des actionnaires minoritaires et affaiblir le pouvoir des II actifs.

Abstract
The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of the presence of institutional investors (II) on the level of cash holding in a context of family ownership. Empirical results reveal that IIs with a long-term investment horizon and majority ownership are better able to control and limit cash holding accumulation. However, a passive investment behavior from these II leads managers to favor their private interests and thus extract rents from high cash hoarding. The results also show that family control can moderate institutional activism and amplifies the passivity of these investors. Indeed, family firms may favor a coalition of control with passive IIs to facilitate the expropriation of minority shareholders’ interests and weaken the power of active IIs.
Keywords:

Resumen
El propósito de este estudio es examinar el efecto de la presencia de inversores institucionales (II) sobre el nivel de tenencia de efectivo en un contexto de propiedad familiar. Los resultados empíricos revelan que los II con un horizonte de inversión a largo plazo y propiedad mayoritaria tienen mayor capacidad para controlar y limitar la acumulación de tenencia de efectivo. Sin embargo, un comportamiento de inversión pasiva de estos II lleva a los administradores a favorecer sus intereses privados y, por lo tanto, extraer rentas del alto acaparamiento de efectivo. Los resultados también muestran que el control familiar puede moderar el activismo institucional y amplifica la pasividad de estos inversionistas. De hecho, las empresas familiares pueden favorecer una coalición de control con los II pasivos para facilitar la expropiación de los intereses de los accionistas minoritarios y debilitar el poder de los II activos.
