Abstract
The purpose of this book chapter is to examine the impact of family involvement on the financial performance of Moroccan listed firms, with a particular focus on the moderating role of the COVID-19 crisis. Using panel data analysis, the findings reveal that family ownership negatively affects financial performance. However, family management and family board representation do not exhibit a significant direct impact. The study also documents that the COVID-19 crisis had a detrimental effect on firms' financial outcomes. Nevertheless, there is no evidence to suggest that the crisis moderated the negative influence of family involvement. Interestingly, family management and family board representation appear to mitigate the adverse effects of the crisis on financial performance. This study contributes to the literature by offering new insights into family firm dynamics during crisis circumstances and provides practical implications for policymakers, consultants, and family business managers.
