Three Essays in Real Estate and Entrepreneurial Finance
An overwhelmingly large number of research studies in corporate Finance span the basis formed by chiefly three corporate policies - Financial policy (leverage), dividend policy, and investment policy. The two most oft-cited frictions, agency issues and asymmetric information, add complexities to the nexus formed by the policies. My empirical dissertation, "Three essays in real...

A Proximity Based Stress Testing Framework
In this a paper a non-linear macro-stress testing methodology with focus on early warning is developed. The methodology builds on a variant of Random Forests and its proximity measures. It develops a framework in which naturally defined contagion and feedback effects transfer the impact of stressing a relatively small part of the observations on the whole dataset and thus allow to...

Effort provision in entrepreneurial teams - effects of team size, free-riding and peer pressure
This paper analyzes whether effort provision in entrepreneurial teams depends on the size of the team, assuming that size determines the strength of free-riding and peer pressure effects in entrepreneurial teams. We provide a theoretical model and empirical analyses to explain the joint effect of free-riding and peer pressure on effort in start-up teams. We begin with an economic...

The impact of skills, working time allocation and peer effects on the entrepreneurial intentions of scientists
Little is currently known about the effects of skill composition on academic entrepreneurship. Therefore, in this paper, following Lazear’s (J Labor Econ 23(4):649–680, 2005) jack-of-all-trades approach, we study how the composition of a scientist’s skills affects his or her intention to become an entrepreneur. Extending Lazear, we examine how the effect of balanced skills is...

Does the director election system matter? Evidence from majority voting
We examine the effect of a change in the director election system—the switch from a plurality voting standard to a more stringent standard known as majority voting (MV). Using a regression discontinuity design, we document abnormal returns of 1.43–1.60 % around annual meeting dates where shareholder proposals to adopt MV are voted upon, suggesting that shareholders perceive the...

Practical relevance of practice-based research on strategy
In this chapter we review practice-based studies that have examined the ontological and epistemological conditions for producing strategy research that proves relevant to management practice. Drawing on these works, we argue that researchers inevitably adopt a scholastic point of view, which makes it impossible to capture directly the logic of strategy practice. However, scholars can...

Much ado about nothing? Sustainability disclosure in the banking industry
This paper examines the sustainability disclosure in the banking industry with respect to potential greenwashing. We build a theoretical framework to assess the sustainability disclosure along materiali-ty criteria in the banking industry and apply this framework to the corporate sustainability reporting of two global systemically important banks. The results of our case study point...
