Abstract:

This thesis includes four essays, of which each comprises two original contributions. Based on this thesis’ eight contributions, we add knowledge or understanding to the literatures on responsible investment, research output analyses and investment performance evaluation. First, we develop the first generic, reliable approach to benchmark research area output (e.g. journal articles or books), which we expect to appeal to governments’ increasing interest in monitoring their research funding investments. Second, we apply this approach to the research area of responsible investment, which is curr

Abstract:

The first chapter studies mutual funds. I model intraquarter trading and use a genetic algorithm to estimate the trade pattern that is most consistent with the fund's daily reported returns. I validate the model empirically on a sample of institutional trades from Ancerno and I confirm that the method more accurately predicts daily holdings when compared to existing naive assumptions. Further, my method is substantially more accurate in classifying a fund's tendency to supply liquidity, and this increased precision has important implications for identifying superior performing funds.

Abstract:

This dissertation investigates how competition among heterogeneous firms affects R&D in quality enhancement in a quality-ladder type framework for a Cournot oligopolistic industry. The research also analyzes the welfare implications of various policies that promotes R&D. Some of the theoretical predictions are then tested empirically using firm-level data for Bangladesh from the World Bank's enterprise survey. Chapter 1 shows that a rise in the cost of production of the competitor will induce a firm to invest more in R&D if and only if the quality difference between the existing product and th

Transforming energy systems to fulfill the needs of a low-carbon economy requires large investments in renewable electricity production (RES-E). Recent literature underlines the need to take a closer look at the composition of the RES-E investor group in order to understand the motives and investment processes of different types of investors. However, existing energy policies generally consider RES-E investments made on a regional or national level, and target investors who evaluate their RES-E investments according to least-cost high-profit criteria.

Acquisitions are a major part of the growth and evolution of companies within varying markets. They are conducted under various circumstances with differing aims and rationales, and for different purposes. This thesis focuses on acquisitions carried out by serial investors acting in a private equity market. These acquisitions are characterised by a highly competitive nature, where access to a large pipeline of potential targets is believed to be a key success factor. As such, deal origination and sourcing of potential targets become important factors to facilitate a high-paced deal flow. Earli

The purpose for this paper is to determine whether there is any direct connection between board composition and R&D investments of Swedish listed companies. A century ago, Sweden was among the poorest nations in Europe, yet today Sweden is 3rd among world leaders in innovation. Innovation is approximated as a good proxy measurement for R&D investments. R&D has been the primary source for innovation because of today’s nature of economies in which firms are challenged with competitive advantage.

Over the past five years, Sovereign Wealth Funds (SWFs) have become a prominent phenomenon in contemporary capitalism. Described as government investment vehicles that invest state wealth in financial markets, the majority of the world's 60-plus funds have been established since the year 2000. Despite extensive treatments of SWFs' geopolitical and international significance, ethical and domestic level analyses are sparse.

Abstract:

This thesis addresses a problem at the nexus of operations, strategy, and economics: in concentrated markets, on the one hand firms may need to expand capacity in order to improve their competitive position, and on the other they also seek to avoid industry excess capacity causing poor industry conditions to destroy the intended value creation. These considerations are opposite to each other. Too much capacity leads to underutilized resources and drives costs up. In contrast, too little capacity will limit the operation's capability to serve customers and earn revenues. The literature of the

碩士<br>淡江大學<br>中國大陸研究所碩士在職專班<br>96<br>Over the past decade or so, Taiwanese businesses have been responding to the changes in the domestic economic environment and the competitive pressure from globalization by investing overseas to develop new production bases and markets. Much of this investment has been concentrated in mainland China due to the abundant labor supply, low land rent, and expanding domestic market there, as well as due to the various tax incentives offered by China to Taiwanese investors. As of the end of November 2007, the amount of China-bound investment from Taiwan reached U

碩士<br>東吳大學<br>會計學系<br>87<br>According to the Investment Commission Ministry of Economic Affairs (hereafter referred to as ICM), statistics on the amounts of outward investments as well as overseas Chinese and foreign investments have revealed a situation in which businesses are increasingly making their investments across the borders. As a result, the number of multinational enterprises in the country has also been on the rise. Since the business activities of multinational enterprises may span across multiple countries, the taxation regulations of both the home country and the income-source c

Abstract:

Research and development (R&D) covering diseases that disproportionately affect developing nations is grossly inadequate. In particular it has been noted over a long period that governments of countries with high tuberculosis (TB) disease burden under invest in TB R&D, despite having 40% of the world’s notified TB cases. For instance, South Africa’s (SA) annual expenditure on TB R&D, of US$1,2 million in 2012, is insignificant relative to its disease burden, of 1 003 per 100,000 population. New tools are required to stop TB; these tools require R&D investment. However a recent report has note

碩士<br>輔仁大學<br>日本語文學系<br>96<br>The purpose of present study was to investigate the impact of Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) on Japanese society and economy by using the methods of literature review. As the progression of globalization, the internal market in Japan is facing a variety of challenges from FDI such as Cross-Border M&A (Mergers and Acquisitions) and Green Field Investment. FDI can be subdivided into two parts: inward investment and outward investment. Inward direct investment in Japan had always been lower than outward direct investment. This unbalanced situation resulted in Japane

Abstract:

Retail investors are facing the need to shift their capital allocation towards other asset classes that do provide a more attractive risk-return profile. Therefore, alternative investment opportunities, such as Private Equity are becoming more popular. As the access of retail investors to Private Equity assets is limited by now, this thesis investigates the possibilities to replicate Private Equity returns. In the form of an underlying financial model, the Portfolio Replication Method investigated in this thesis, simulates a 3-Step-Approach, consisting of 2-Factor Investing, Homemade-Leverage
