										Abstract: Taking the 141 related party cooperation announcements by Chinese listed companies from January 2001 to December 2013 as the sample, the article investigates the impact of the focal firms’ ownership structure and relative characteristics of related parties on the focal firms’ value creation. The empirical results indicate that ownership concentration negatively affect the value creation, while equity restriction has no influence on the focal firms’ value creation. The related party’s relative scale plays a significantly positive role on the focal firms’ value creation, while the related party’s relative associated relationship is negatively related to the focal firms’ value creation. The article contributes to the current literature by investigating whether the governance mechanism of listed companies could create value for the focal firms under the background of related party cooperation, and providing empirical evidence about the influence of ownership structure and relative characteristics of related party on the focal firms’ value creation.
