With the rapid growth, open-ended funds become the mainstream of Chinesesecurities investment funds industry in ten years, but with the expanding processaffiliated transactions of funds also emerge frequently. This phenomenon seriouslyaffects the credibility of this industry and hinders the healthy development of securitiesinvestment fund industry. The scandal of affiliated transactions is exposed frequentlyand it attracts attentions of regulatory authorities. But affiliated transactions of fundscan not stop despite repeated prohibition. The reason is that open-ended funds makefund companies to form double principal-agent. Therefore, these companies are easy toform “insider control” and generate affiliated transactions. At the same time, externalgovernance has not yet formed. Therefore, internal governance of fund companies tosupervise affiliated transactions effectively is very important.Now, the achievements of researching on internal governance of fund companiesand affiliated transactions of funds use theory analysis principally and then theempirical study on internal governance of fund companies and affiliated transactions isless. Therefore, based on principal agent theory, this article chooses open-ended fundsas the research object and empirically studies the inhibitory effect of internalgovernance of fund companies on affiliated transactions. In the meanwhile, the writerhopes to give some suggestions to improve internal governance of fund companies.At first, this article analyzes affiliated transactions of funds theoretically and findsthe reasons of affiliated transactions of funds and the major defects of internalgovernance of fund companies. Then, this paper gives the definition of affiliatedtransactions of funds and quantifies the specific form of three kinds of affiliatedtransactions of funds.

The thesisfinds that improve the proportion of independent directors with the experience ofsecurities or funds industry in the board can restrain affiliated transactions of funds, andthe independent directors can restrain family co-holding behavior effectively. Theredundant of the board is unfavorable for supervising affiliated transactions. Theredundant of the board is unfavorable for supervising affiliated custody fees andaffiliated commissions. The inhibitory effect of supervision committee、inspectors is not significant.
