【Abstract】 We select Shanghai and Shenzhen A-share listed companies from 2004 to 2015 to explore the influence of independent directors on the behavior of M&A in the network framework by using the social network analysis method.The results show that the degree of the independent director network position is higher and the M&A activity is more frequent.At the same time,the network centrality of the independent director can provide more advice and information service for the company in the process of M&A.Therefore,the company achieves better M&A performance after the M&A activity.The conclusion enriches the research of social network,independent director management and enterprise mergers and acquisitions,and provides empirical evidence for the construction of the board of directors and the optimization of M&A behavior.更多还原
