Abstract: Abstract Starting from “incentive effects” and “encroachment effects” of the largest shareholders, this article analyzes how the largest shareholder’s changes of stake and nature affect cash value. Empirical studies show that, when financing constraints, caused by the largest shareholder’s moral hazard, do not exist, the relationship between stake and cash value is significant inverted U-shaped, and while the largest shareholder is government, it will weaken the positive effect of cash holdings on firm value; relative to non-government-controlled companies, the government-controlled company’s cash value is lower. When the above-mentioned financing constraints exist, the largest shareholder’s influences on cash value is not significant, but it can be seen the largest shareholder has negative effect on cash value in company with a high degree of financing constraints, which indicates that in the financing constrained company, largest shareholder’s “encroachment effects” is on the performance.
