This study employs Feasible Generalized Least Squares (FGLS) regression to examine the linear and nonlinear effects of CEO experience on the financial performance of non-financial firms listed on the Ho Chi Minh City Stock Exchange (HOSE) over the period 2013–2022. The findings indicate a negative relationship between CEO experience and financial performance, accompanied by an inverted U-shaped nonlinear pattern, whereby financial performance initially rises with increasing years of CEO experience, reaches a peak at approximately 10 years, and subsequently declines. Moreover, during the COVID-19 pandemic, prior accumulated executive experience does not significantly enhance financial performance, highlighting the limitations of traditional experience in adapting to unprecedented economic shocks.
