Abstract: Creative CEOs can bring competitive advantages to their firms in a dynamic and complex market, but their creativity may also have its dark side. Employing CEO patent records as an unobtrusive measure of CEO creativity, this study examines how CEO creativity affects corporate fraudulent financial reporting behavior. We distinguish between artistic and scientific creativity and propose that these two types of creativity may have different impacts on fraudulent financial reporting. With a sample of Chinese public-listed firms in the manufacturing industry during 1999-2010, we found that CEO artistic creativity was positively related but CEO scientific creativity was negatively related to corporate fraudulent financial reporting. The results highlight both the bright and the dark side of CEO creativity.

Keywords : CEO creativity, artistic creativity, scientific creativity, corporate fraudulent financial reporting, patent
