Abstract:

The purpose of this dissertation is to examine investment decisions made by managers of firms having a portion of their assets committed to projects classified (for financial accounting purposes) as investments in marketable securities, and the corresponding consequences of such decisions on the firm. Of particular concern are managers' decisions to select investment alternatives emphasizing non-optimal investment projects, as suggested by a speculative intent. The research focuses on two main issues: (1) identifying the environment most conducive to finding the existence of marketable securit

Abstract:

Mestrado em Economia - Finanças<br>The presence of women in various aspects of life of societies has changed throughout the years. This work aims to analyse the effect of gender diversity in the profitability of firms, considering, for such study, a sample of Portuguese firms that have increased importance for the economy, since we consider the companies highlighted by “EXAME” Magazine in its annual 2013 edition as the "500 Biggest and Best" companies. The results show evidence that the presence of women on boards of directors of the companies generates negative effects on firm’s performance.

Abstract:

The purpose of this dissertation is to explore how the economic return of a software investment can be assessed and managed. This topic has been studied in research and has been a concern for firms making software investments. In order to study this we need a model of the underlying factors affecting the economic return. Assessing and managing the return of a software investment is been argued to be difficult due to specific economic characteristics of a software investment, i.e. high degree of intangible consequences and uncertainty about the total investment cost. Given these characteristics

Abstract:

Decision making activity is at the heart of organisations and, as an essential managerial function, it has been the subject of an immense body of literature. As the majority of research has been undertaken within the disciplines of economics and psychology, studies have tended to emphasise economic rationality as the basis for cognitive reasoning, decision processes and judgement and as the analytic paradigm. However, in the face of new problems, and in times of profound change, conventional forms of thought may be problematic in themselves. This project suggests and assesses a Foucaultian fra

Abstract:

This thesis examines the effects of managerial overconfidence on corporate financing decisions. Overconfident managers tend to overestimate the mean of future cash flow and underestimate the volatility of future cash flow. We propose a novel time-varying measure of overconfidence, which is based on computational linguistic analysis of what the managers said (i.e. Chairman s Statement). The overconfidence of CEO and CFO is also constructed based on what the managers did (i.e. how they trade their own firms shares). We conduct three empirical studies that offer new insights into the roles of man

While there is a wide body of literature examining the relation between CEO compensation and firm performance, few studies have directly tested the proposition that a strong pay-performance link: leads to improved future performance. This paper tests the hypothesis that a strong pay-performance link: leads to better managerial decisions. Following Jensen and Murphy's (1990b) methodology, pay-performance sensitivities are estimated for the CEOs of 105 NYSE and AMEX firms. The relation between the estimated pay-performance sensitivities and subsequent acquisition performance is examined f

Abstract:

This research investigated the potential effects of managerial overconfidence and regret aversion in a corporate capital investment context. Three fundamental decision problems are analysed: Project selection (accepting or rejecting a proposed investment), managerial effort, and project evaluation (continuing or abandoning a failing investment). Very little previous research has looked at the role of psychological biases in corporate finance decisions, and the joint analysis of the two studied biases within one model is also a fairly novel contribution.

Managerial overconfidence, as a particular form of managerial irrationality, concerns that some managers are less than completely rational and tend to overestimate the outcome of the investment projects under their control.

First, it explores the consequences of managerial overconfidence for investment decisions and the cash holding policy by emphasizing the role of financial constraints.

Abstract:

In the face of escalating health care expenditure, OECD countries are turning to a variety of cost-containment strategies. This thesis analyses three such mechanisms. In Part I, I consider the use of coinsurance to limit the demand for health care. Because coinsurance reduces the elasticity of demand with respect to the price of health care, consumers facing low coinsurance rates may be charged a higher price by doctors. Such discriminatory pricing enables the doctor to extract surplus created in the insurance market, and therefore reduces the effectiveness of coinsurance. I show that in equil

This study offers a new theoretical view of organizational justice and empirically applies it to study the fairness of career advancement decisions in organizations. Theoretically, the study challenges the concept of procedural justice in organizations by drawing on Hayek's liberal justice theory.

Case study research on ABC systems describes the problems which prompted a cost system revision and the outcomes of the revision. These studies demonstrate that the installation of an ABC system

Empirical studies attempting to capture the complex, dynamic and contextually-embedded character of strategic decision implementation are rare.

Fairness and efficiency are two classical and connected topics in economics. They have become well known, perhaps due to Adam Smith’s two influential works: The Theory of Moral Sentiments (1759), which highlights a concern for fairness concern as part of morality, and The Wealth of Nations (1776), which underlines a concern for efficiency. However, during the rapid development of economics, fairness has received disproportionately less attention than efficiency. As a result, many people, including some economists, have incorrectly understood that economics as a subject no longer cares about fa

In networked MNCs where knowledge and power are distributed, corporate strategy processes benefit from input arising from many different levels of the organization.
