Abstract

Due to the characteristics of "high investment and uncertain income in the early stage", the financial risks of the exhibition industry are prominent. It not only threatens the survival of enterprises, but also directly affects the rights and interests of shareholders, creditors, suppliers, exhibitors and other stakeholders. At present, most exhibition enterprises have insufficient ability to cope with risks, and the existing research has a gap in the linkage analysis of "risk-stakeholder". This study takes "theoretical combing - case analysis - conclusion suggestion" as the idea, adopts the multi-case comparison method, combines the relevant theories of Chinese and foreign databases, selects three types of representative exhibition enterprises: large state-owned, private listed, and regional small and medium-sized enterprises, and compares and analyses their risk characteristics and response effects. The research breaks through a single perspective, focuses on the transmission impact of financial risks on multiple stakeholders, fills the gap in the linkage analysis of risks and stakeholders in existing research, and has both practical guidance value and theoretical supplementary significance.
