Change Paradigms in the Setting of Knowledge Management Systems (Leiden University Management Research Series) Hauke Heier (auth.) Deutscher Universitäts Verlag, Leiden University management research series, 1. Aufl., Wiesbaden, Germany, 2004

Culture is widely acknowledged as a most prominent make-or-break factor of knowledge management systems implementation projects. Behavioral and organizational change management are critical to achieve a good fit between human factors and technology. Hauke Heier examines how technology-facilitated knowledge management initiatives can establish supportive knowledge-intensive cultures. Based on an explorative case study of a four-year implementation and change management project in the electrical engineering and electronics industry, he investigates the explanatory power of two complementary change management frameworks in the new setting of knowledge management systems. Thus, this study contributes to the development of theory and managerial practice - toward a culture change-based implementation framework.

Computational Visualistics, Media Informatics, and Virtual Communities (Bildwissenschaft, 11) Frieder Nake (auth.), Jochen Schneider, Thomas Strothotte, Winfried Marotzki (eds.) Deutscher Universitäts Verlag, Reihe Bildwissenschaft, Bd. 11, 1. Aufl, Wiesbaden, 2003

The study of images and new media from a technical point of view is a subject for computer science, which needs to be complemented with that of other disciplines reflecting on and producing media and images, in particular design, psychology, education, political science, sociology, and philosophy. Interdisciplinary approaches involving two or more areas applied to selected research problems are therefore more and more common. A number of research universities world wide have installed degree programs in which experts from the different areas lead the next generation of scientists toward interdisciplinary research. Such degree programs place a large burden on their students, as they are to integrate in their minds the teaching of various different subjects - often with the goal of achieving a deeper understanding of the interdisciplinary nature of the subjects than their professors from any one of the contributing subjects might have. In April, 2003 representatives of a group of mostly German research universities offering degree programs in the areas of Computational Visualistics and Media Informatics met for the first time in Magdeburg, Germany. Their goal is to collaborate in research and research-oriented teaching through the exchange of ideas, information and experience. This volume collects information on their views of their own degree and research programs as a starting point for discussions. First examples of interdisciplinary research being carried out in the area are also included.

Trust within Organizations of the New Economy: A Cross-Industrial Study (International Management Studies) Marco Tulio Zanini (auth.) Deutscher Universitäts-Verlag | GWV Fachverlage GmbH, Wiesbaden; Deutscher Universitäts-Verlag, 1, 2007

The role of trust in governing institutions has been disputed for years. Increasing uncertainty and people’s personal concerns about future perspectives seem to have created an increasing need for what we call trust. Simultaneously, the same uncertainty that induces this increased demand for trust seems to be undermining it. Marco Tulio Zanini examines the effects of different industry-specific institutional framework constraints on the level of trust within business organizations, particularly the possible differences in old and new economy. Based on the results of a survey carried out in seven major companies from different sectors of the Brazilian economy, the author shows that trust is more likely to be found in relatively stable, hierarchical and bureaucratic organizations whereas there is comparatively little trust in new economy firms.

The Predictabilty Of German Stock Returns (empirische Finanzmarktforschung/empirical Finance) Judith Klähn (auth.) Deutscher Universitätsverlag : Imprint: Deutscher Universitätsverlag, Empirische Finanzmarktforschung / Empirical Finance, 1, 2000

Extensive literature investigates the predictability of U.S. equity returns. This does not imply, however, that the results are equally valid for the German equity market. Judith Klähn's central theory is that the German stock market is not comparable to Wall Street. She proves that some of the most important variables in predicting U.S. equity returns are not significant for the German stock market. The author shows that the composition of Germany's investor base plays an important role, and she outlines the variables crucial for the German stock market.

Investment and Liquidity Constraints : Empirical Evidence for Germany Andreas Behr (auth.) Deutscher Universitäts Verlag, Neue Betriebswirtschaftliche Forschung 318, 1, 2004

During the last decade, exploring the link between financial factors and investment has become a major field of theoretical and empirical publications. Some empirical findings indicate that young, fast growing, low dividend paying firms are faced with more liquidity constraints than other firms and therefore show stronger reactions concerning investments to changes of their internal financial flow. Andreas Behr explores the role of financial factors in a firm's investment decision. He applies the Q-theory of investment to a unique database of German firms (the Deutsche Bundesbank's Corporate Balance Sheet Statistics) covering balance sheet data of 2 314 firms. The empirical results show a strong and significant influence of the calculated Q.

Technology Buyouts : Valuation, Market Screening Application, Opportunities in Europe Tilman E. Pohlhausen (auth.) Deutscher Universitäts Verlag, Gabler Edition Wissenschaft, 1. Aufl, Wiesbaden, 2003

Since 2000, technology companies have experienced dramatic losses in public market valuation. The question is whether this decline in prices opened the door for a concept hardly yet applied to this sector: leveraged and management buyouts. Tilman E. Pohlhausen explains why buyouts of companies in the technology sector have barely taken place and why this is changing. He shows how the attractiveness of a buyout target can be estimated, what makes analyzing technology buyouts different from traditional buyouts, and why there might be opportunities for private equity investors in the European technology markets. The author provides a free MS Excel model on the book's accompanying web-site that allows the screening of major technology indices using a fully adjustable scoring model to identify potentially attractive buyout targets.

Discontinuous Galerkin Methods for Viscous Incompressible Flow (Advances in Numerical Mathematics) Guido Kanschat (auth.) Teubner Research : Deutscher Universitäts-Verlag, 1, 2008

Guido Kanschat reviews several discontinuous Galerkin schemes for elliptic and viscous flow problems. Setting out from Nitsche s method for weak boundary conditions, he studies the interior penalty and LDG methods. Combined with a stable advection discretization, they yield stable DG methods for linear flow problems of Stokes and Oseen type which are applied to the Navier- Stokes problem. The author not only presents the analytical techniques used to study these methods but also devotes a major discussion to the efficient numerical solution of discrete problems.Dr. Guido Kanschat ist Assistant

Competition for Order Flow and the Theory of Global Games: The impact of alternative trading systems on securities markets (German Edition) Jutta A. Dönges (auth.) Deutscher Universitäts Verlag, Gabler Edition Wissenschaft, 1. Aufl, Wiesbaden, Wiesbaden, 2001

The proliferation of alternative trading systems has increased competition for order flow in financial markets significantly and renewed the debate on fragmentation versus consolidation. Market microstructure models that analyze liquidity-based intermarket competition typically exhibit multiple equilibria, making it difficult to determine whether fragmentation or consolidation of order flow will occur. Jutta A. Dönges applies the recently developed theory of global games that reduces multiplicity of equilibria in coordination games to a model of intermarket competition and demonstrates the existence of a unique equilibrium under fairly general conditions. The author investigates whether and under which circumstances alternative trading systems, particularly crossing networks, can co-exist with established markets or even replace them and explores how the introduction of a crossing network affects both monopolistic and competitive dealer markets and the market participants' behavior.

Vergütung bei internationalen Mitarbeiterentsendungen : Steuerliche und sozialversicherungsrechtliche Aspekte und Gestaltungsansätze unter Berücksichtigung von komplexen Vergütungsstrukturen und Altersvorsorgeaufwendungen Dietmar Wellisch; Maik Näth; Kerstin Thiele Deutscher Universitäts-Verlag, Springer Nature, Wiesbaden, 2006

Die Frage, wie die während der Entsendung von Mitarbeitern ins Ausland bezogenen Vergütungen steuerlich und sozialversicherungsrechtlich behandelt werden, ist sowohl für den entsandten Arbeitnehmer als auch für dessen Arbeitgeber von großem Interesse. Zum einen können die zwischen Entsende- und Tätigkeitsstaat bestehenden Unterschiede in den Steuer- und Sozialversicherungssystemen dazu führen, dass die auf die Arbeitnehmervergütungen erhobenen Steuern und Sozialabgaben während der Entsendung erheblich steigen oder sinken. Zum anderen gilt es, die mit Entsendungen verbundenen Besonderheiten beim Einbehalt von Lohnsteuer und Sozialversicherungsabgaben zu beachten, um Haftungsrisiken zu vermeiden. Dietmar Wellisch, Maik Näth und Kerstin Thiele vermitteln einen Überblick über die steuerliche Behandlung der Arbeitnehmervergütungen bei Arbeitnehmer und Arbeitgeber, die sozialversicherungsrechtliche Beurteilung des entsandten Arbeitnehmers, die Steuererhebung in Deutschland (Lohnsteuerabzug vs. Veranlagung) sowie die Einbehaltung und Abführung der Sozialversicherungsbeiträge. Sie berücksichtigen dabei auch Sonderformen der Vergütung wie stock options, Ansprüche auf betriebliche Altersversorgung und Gutschriften auf Arbeitszeitkonten.

Managing Corporate Brands : A New Approach to Corporate Communication Marcos Ormeno; Marcos Oscar Orme O. Deutscher Universitäts-Verlag | GWV Fachverlage GmbH, Wiesbaden, Springer Nature, Wiesbaden, 2007

Much attention has been paid recently to corporate brands and corporate reputations. Although companies go to great lenghts to enhance their image in the minds of consumers, investors, employees and other constituencies, current research fails to explain how brand-building corporate communication programmes should be designed. Marcos Ormeño introduces both behavioural science theory and decision analysis into corporate brand management using corporate communication.

Strategische identitätsorientierte Markenführung : Mit Fallstudien aus der Automobilindustrie by Tanja Ringle Deutscher Universitätsverlag, Springer Nature, Wiesbaden, 2006

Das Thema Marke hat in der Marketing-Literatur eine lange Tradition. Dennoch fanden Probleme der strategischen Markenführung im Hinblick auf die Konzeption von Markenidentitäten und die Rolle der Markenidentität bisher wenig Beachtung. Tanja Ringle analysiert, wie ein Soll-Selbstbild der Markenidentität entwickelt und durch interne und externe Maßnahmen vermittelt werden kann. Weiterhin wird dargestellt, welche Rolle die Markenidentität im strategischen Entscheidungsbereich spielt. Drei Fallstudien aus der Automobilindustrie erweitern die Untersuchungsergebnisse um eine praxisorientierte Perspektive. Die Erkenntnisse bieten Markenanbietern eine Orientierung, um Entscheidungs- und Handlungsmöglichkeiten im Rahmen der identitätsorientierten strategischen Markenführung zu identifizieren und zu nutzen.

Ideengenerierung mit Konsumenten im Internet (Betriebswirtschaftslehre für Technologie und Innovation, 55) (German Edition) Jan Henrik Soll, Prof. Dr. Holger Ernst Deutscher Universitätsverlag, Betriebswirtschaftslehre für Technologie und Innovation, 1. Aufl, Wiesbaden, 2006

Der Markterfolg eines Produktes hängt davon ab, wie gut es die Bedürfnisse der Konsumenten erfüllt. Obwohl diese Tatsache allgemein bekannt ist, erfüllen viele Neuprodukte die Absatzerwartungen nicht. Grund dafür ist, dass die zuverlässige Erkennung von Kundenbedürfnissen in Konsumgütermärkten sehr aufwändig ist. Der Einsatz von Methoden der virtuellen Kundeneinbindung, also der Nutzung des Internets zur Einbindung von Konsumenten in die Produktentwicklung durch ein Unternehmen, kann Abhilfe schaffen. Konsumenten können so in großer Zahl an der Entwicklung von Produktideen beteiligt werden. Jan Henrik Soll entwickelt eine Methode, wie Unternehmen systematisch Kundenbedürfnisse aufdecken und Ideen für neue Produkte gewinnen können. Besonderes Augenmerk liegt dabei auf der Frage, welche Eigenschaften Konsumenten haben, die wertvolle Produktideen übermitteln. Es wird gezeigt, dass nicht nur Lead User besonders gute Beiträge leisten können.

Kundenintegration in den Dienstleistungsprozess: Eine verhaltenswissenschaftliche Untersuchung (neue betriebswirtschaftliche forschung (nbf), 357) (German Edition) Marion Büttgen Deutscher Universitäts-Verlag, Springer Nature, Wiesbaden, 2007

Eine erfolgreiche Dienstleistungserstellung ist bei vielen Leistungsarten davon abhängig, ob der Kunde sich in angemessener Form in den Erstellungsprozess einbringt. Für Unternehmen ist es daher eine große Herausforderung, Kunden als kompetente und leistungsbereite Co-Produzenten zu fördern. In einer umfangreichen empirischen Untersuchung analysiert Marion Büttgen, worin eine leistungsgerechte Kundenbeteiligung zum Ausdruck kommt, durch welche Faktoren sie beeinflusst wird und wie Anbieter darauf hinwirken können. Die Bereitschaft des Kunden zur Mitwirkung hat eine ausgeprägte Erklärungskraft für sein tatsächliches Verhalten im Rahmen der Leistungserstellung, während leistungsbezogenes Wissen und Fähigkeiten des Kunden kaum wirksam werden. Zudem haben Dienstleistungsanbieter gute Möglichkeiten, die Mitwirkung des Kunden zu verbessern, indem sie kundenbezogene Qualifizierungsaktivitäten einsetzen und somit auch das Commitment gegenüber dem eigenen Unternehmen stärken.

Content Infrastructure Management: Results Of An Empirical Study In The Print Industry (markt- Und Unternehmensentwicklung / Markets And Organisations) Alexander Benlian (auth.) Deutscher Universitäts-Verlag ℗ب́Đ GWV Fachverlage GmbH, Wiesbaden Deutscher Universit̃ts-Verlag : GWV Fachverlage, Markt- und Unternehmensentwicklung, 1. Aufl, Wiesbaden, Germany, 2006

Because of the increasing digitization and modularity of content media companies are challenged to exploit the gained degrees of freedom in the management of their most valuable asset. Opportunities abound - reutilizing, bundling and pushing content through diverse media channels leading to higher returns on investment. Although many studies have tackled the problem of properly allocating data, processing power or IT-related decision rights in the past, the topic of media content allocation has been neglected so far. Taking into account strategic, organizational and technological factors Alexander Benlian explores the question of whether to centralize or to decentralize media content. The findings basically emphasize the need to design publishing organizations that follow certain patterns of congruency and consistency in order to realize greater effectiveness. These observed patterns or invariabilities may provide infrastructure managers with a benchmark against which to reassess the design of their own content allocation configuration. Aligned content infrastructures can be considered to dramatically increase the smoothness of content flows and to enhance production and bundling capabilities.

Föderalismus und Naturschutz: Anatomie eines Spannungsfelds (German Edition) Axel Volkery Deutscher Universitätsverlag, Springer Nature, Wiesbaden, 2007

Der Schutz der biologischen Vielfalt ist neben dem Klimawandel die zentrale umweltpolitische Herausforderung dieses Jahrhunderts. Eine effektive Naturschutzpolitik, die internationalen Vorgaben erfolgreich Rechnung trägt, wird in Deutschland aber immer wieder durch die föderale Politikverflechtung von Bund und Ländern behindert. Zwar wurde das Bundesnaturschutzrecht im Jahre 2002 umfassend modernisiert, doch zeigt Axel Volkery, dass • trotz guter Ansätze viele Problemstellungen nicht richtig angegangen werden und die rechtliche Umsetzung in den Bundesländern defizitär ausfällt, • der Spielraum für Reformen in der Politikverflechtung strukturell begrenzt und die Stärkung der Kompetenzen des Bundes notwendig ist und • die jüngst vorgenommene Neuregelung der Kompetenzen von Bund und Ländern im Naturschutz die notwendige Leistungssteigerung erschweren wird.

This study leaves the Modigliani -Miller world of pure arbitrage -but not the world of equilibria -and turns the principal-agent world upside down. Here the firrns become principals again and banks become agents in the original sense of the word: they act on an auction market. This new view of credit relationships yields a number of interesting insights. In my opinion the most important result is that too close relationships between banks and their borrowers will reduce credit market competition. Michael Tröge thus gives an antitrust reason for the Iimitation of bank involvement in non financial firms. This is not a very relevant issue in the United States where legal responsibility already makes it difficult for banks to inßuence the decisions of the firm. However, in continental Europe, close relationships between banks and firms are widespread and its effects on firrns are subject to a large debate. The author investigates in a first step the impact of the banks' information ahout borrower quality on the competitiveness of the credit market. Precise in formation about the credit quality can yield a competitive advantage for the bank but it does not come without cost. Tröge endogenizes the amount of informa tion acquired in a strategic duopoly and obtains two key results: He first shows that too many banks can lead to excessive spending on information acquisition.

Teamwork for Innovation in Sub-Saharan Africa Hannah Titilayo Seriki (auth.) Deutscher Universitätsverlag : Imprint: Deutscher Universitätsverlag, DUV Wirtschaftswissenschaft, 1. Aufl, Wiesbaden, 2007

Innovation is an essential success factor needed to ensure and extend the competitiveness of organisations. The quality of teamwork plays an important role as it determines the success of innovation teams. Whereas most insights concerning the dynamics of work groups come from North American or Western European environments, Hannah Titilayo Seriki concentrates on teams operating within the complex societal context of sub-Saharan Africa. The author develops a multi-level theory of African teams’ innovative performance and regards the team as a sub-system of the organisation, which is subjected to societal influences. She compares the insights gained from case studies in Nigeria and in South Africa with findings from two Germanic European cases. The results of her study imply that managers can actively and consciously influence the way their organisations pass on societal forces to their sub-units. Distinct differences between European and African cases are found, especially in the areas of team leadership and motivation.

The Formation Process of SME Networks: A comparative case analysis of social processes of Austria, Belgium and Turkey Haas, Marita Deutscher Universitäts-Verlag | GWV Fachverlage GmbH, Wiesbaden, Springer Nature, [Place of publication not identified], 2007

Cooperation concepts can be considered as an opportunity for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) to overcome arising problems due to their size. Although the advantages of cooperations, such as cost sharing, access to new markets and increased flexibility, are well-known and discussed in literature, the realization of the concept remains challenging. Marita Haas claims that social processes are decisive for the success of SME networks and creates a phase concept based on group theory that describes how owners of small enterprises enter into a cooperation. The framework is applied to three network formation cases in Austria, Belgium and Turkey. The author shows that group theory is a useful tool to understand and anticipate processes in networked organizations and indicates that the group formation process must be accomplished before a network will be able to create benefits

More specifically, their focus is on how moves towards a re-positioning as an enabling authority are to be made drivers for adapting management systems across all levels. In accordance with present developments, the authors explain how changes in the overall governance structure have to be used to adapt leadership practices in a more output-oriented or even entrepreneurial fashion. Overall, the underlying idea is to provide some further basics for a public sector type of a design-oriented management science

Remanufacturing has received increasing attention in the recent past as more companies engage in product recovery management. Ian M. Langella examines the planning of disassembly for remanufacturing of used products, yielding components which are reassembled into “as good as new” items. Through a thorough analysis of the underlying planning problem, fundamental insights are attained and heuristic solution methods are developed and tested. Although the heuristics exhibit good performance, they remain simple enough to be applied to industrial-sized problems. The author considers both settings where yields are deterministic and stochastic and where the amount of returned products is constrained.

The Economics of Superstars and Celebrities (Markt- und Unternehmensentwicklung Markets and Organisations) (German Edition) Stephan Nüesch; mit einem Geleitw. von Egon Franck Gabler Verlag, Gabler Edition Wissenschaft : Markt- und Unternehmensentwicklung, 1. Aufl., Wiesbaden, Germany, 2007

During the last decades, technological improvements and globalization effects have enlarged the scope and the intensity of winner-takes-all markets in which a few talented superstars earn enormous amounts of money. While superstar status is generally based on the provision of high quality services, recent information technology and mass media have allowed a new type of stars to emerge: trivial celebrities who are just known for being well-known. Using both elaborate econometrical and microeconomic tools, Stephan Nüesch investigates the driving forces of superstar and celebrity emergence, the efficiency of superstar salaries in professional sports, and the star attraction of superstars and celebrities both in sports and in the media. The author provides an economic theory of very famous but trivial celebrities. This thesis is a valuable contribution for scholars and students in the fields of personnel, sports and media economics as well as for executives in the entertainment industry.

Competition in Marketing : Two Essays on the Impact of Information on Managerial Decisions and on Spatial Product Differentiation Vera Magin Deutscher Universitätsverlag, Springer Nature, Wiesbaden, 2006

The importance of information to support managerial decision making has been widely acknowledged, but only little research has been done on the overall impact of such information. In her first essay Vera Magin uses primary experimental data to explore the effects of information on marketing decisions, performance, and competition. The results indicate that better informed firms offer more products, achieve a higher primary demand, and exhaust customer preferences to a higher degree. Surprisingly and more importantly, information impacts on performance are non-significant. This phenomenon is termed "managerial over-acting". Managerial over-action introduces a new concept to the marketing discipline.

Profit Sharing and Company Performance Ugarkovic M. Deutscher Universitätsverlag, Springer Nature, Wiesbaden, 2007

There has been a long tradition of academic research on the nature and consequences of employee financial participation. Due to its various potential benefits, this topic has recently attracted renewed interest both among academics and policy-makers in Europe. Marija Ugarkovic examines whether financial participation can contribute to a more equitable distribution of income and wealth, whether it can increase employment and lead to improved company performance. The author uses a large-scale German establishment panel and proves the beneficial impact on productivity and employment. In addition, she shows that profit sharing does not lead to a reduction of base wages but is paid in addition to regular wages. It becomes evident that profit sharing has more positive effects for large firms than for small and medium-sized companies.

Global Stock Markets : Expected Returns, Consumption, and the Business Cycle Wolfgang Drobetz (auth.) Deutscher Universitäts Verlag, 1st ed. 2000, Wiesbaden, 2000

Stock investments have become increasingly international, but only recently a deeper theoretical understanding of the forces influencing global stock market returns has been gained from empirical studies. This is a crucial issue for asset managers in order to control the risks and exposures of global stock portfolios successfully. Wolfgang Drobetz provides empirical evidence on the time variation of expected stock returns over the stages of the business cycle: If the time variation in expected returns is rational, driven by shocks to taste or technology, the variation in expected returns should be related to variation in consumption, investment, and savings. Testing both stochastic discount factor models and beta pricing models, the author finds that predictability of stock returns is perfectly consistent with the concept of market efficiency, and stock prices need not follow a random walk.

Managing Organizational Responsiveness : Toward a Theory of Responsive Practice Claus Jacobs (auth.) Deutscher Universitäts Verlag, Softcover reprint of the original 1st ed. 2003, 2003

Responsiveness - conceived of as an organization's ability to listen, understand and respond to demands put to it by its stakeholders - has become a crucial, yet underresearched concept in strategic change and organization development. Claus Jacobs develops a concept of enactive responsiveness that transcends the traditional stimulus-response metaphor by re-introducing the dialogical and relational dimensions of responsiveness. Based on an interpretive case study of a 12-month organizational change project in a health care organization, he conceptualizes responsiveness as a perceptive, reflective and adaptive capacity of an organization. Thus, this study contributes to the development of a theory and practice of 'organizational answerability'.

Public Private Partnership For Urban Rail Transit: Forms, Regulatory Conditions, Participants (baubetriebswirtschaftslehre Und Infrastrukturmanagement) Joachim Schneider (auth.) Deutscher Universitäts Verlag, Baubetriebswirtschaftslehre und Infrastrukturmanagement, 1st ed. 2004, Wiesbaden, 2004

As a result of longlasting budgetary problems, public investments are gradually diminishing. This lack of public investments on the local, national and supranational level endangers economic development, especially in the transport field. Public Private Partnerships (PPP) have been advocated as a means to overcome this dead end, but the results were not always satisfactory. Based on a broad definition of PPP, Joachim Schneider investigates the development of urban and regional rail transport infrastructure in the US and the UK and asks the following questions: Which forms of public private co-operation exist? Which are of particular interest from a German and European perspective? Which legal and organisational conditions as well as budgetary, subsidy- and procurement-rules have contributed to positive or negative results? The author shows that the most relevant examples in the USA involve private real estate developers handling urban development projects around urban and regional rail stops. The most promising examples in the UK are privately built and operated Light Rail systems. In order to successfully transfer and implement this experience, it is crucial to create an adequate institutional frame and to foster a culture of co-operation between the public and the private sector.

Economic Analyses of the European Patent System (Innovation und Entrepreneurship) Stefan M. Wagner Deutscher Universitätsverlag, 2006, 2006

The European Patent System is facing major challenges resulting from an extension of patentable subject matter leading to an increasing number of patent applications. The European Patent Office has responded with admirable flexibility, but continuing technological change and greater importance ascribed to patents are leading to lengthened examination periods, rising opposition figures and changing behaviour of patent applicants. Stefan M. Wagner analyses problems associated with institutional changes (duration of patent examination and opposition mechanisms), the expansion of the patentable subject matter and organizational challenges for industrial patentees. The study is based on the empirical analysis of large scale datasets on European patents and employs advanced multivariate methods such as semi-parametric and panel-data regression methods

Competition in credit markets : a theoretical analysis Michael Tröge (auth.) Deutscher Universitäts Verlag, Beiträge zur betriebswirtschaftlichen Forschung 94, 1, 2001

Competition in credit markets is different from competition in simple product markets. The allocation of capital is not only determined by its price, but banks actively decide to whom they will provide finance. In addition, the provision of credit is not a spot transaction, but extends over a certain period of time. Banks need to acquire information in order to efficiently screen borrowers before providing credit and to monitor them during the credit relationship to make sure that the credit will be paid back. Michael Tröge develops game-theoretic and auction-theoretic models for the strategic interaction of banks in the credit market. He shows that in narrow oligopolies only one bank will carry out detailed creditworthyness tests for a firm and that in very competitive markets information about a borrower ́s quality can reduce a bank ́s profit. The author also points out that equity ownership of a bank increases the expected interest rates for a firm and that a bank ́s concern for a good reputation may lead to credit rationing. .

Economic Aspects Of Digital Information Technologies (gabler Edition Wissenschaft) Bernard Michael Gilroy (auth.), Dr. Thomas Gries, Dr. Leena Suhl (eds.) Deutscher Universitäts Verlag, 1st ed. 1999, Wiesbaden, 1999

The rapid development of information and communication technologies has been one of the major issues in the world economy of the last decade. Especially, the fast growth of the Internet has introduced completely new economic and related issues, like world-wide Electronic Commerce and its taxing, telework activities, distance learning, and so on. It has become possible to split organizations into small units which may form an electronically connected network taking new shapes in a flexible way. Since the growth of the Internet has been fast and fairly uncontrolled, a strong need for new laws, sometimes called Cyberlaw, has emerged. On the other hand, the individual skills of information technologies may be of critical importance to the success of a person in his or her professional career. This book discusses several new aspects and economic impacts of digital information technologies. A primer on Internet economics provides an introduction to the structure of the Internet and its economic issues. Further related subjects are taxing of the world-wide Electronic Commerce, Cyberlaw, learning with hypermedia, and distance learning over the network. We also discuss the general impact of information technologies on innovation dynamics, labor demand, and human capital depreciation. Results of a recent survey on European telework activities give insight into rapid organizational changes due to the digitalization of economies. General information technology related aspects, like the need of a rapid transfer of new economic knowledge and semantic integration of online information, are provided.

The retail financial services industry is undergoing fundamental changes, as better informed and more demanding customers decide for themselves how, when and where they purchase personalised product solutions. Distribution, i.e. managing the exchange processes with the customer, remains the only sustainable competitive advantage. Multi-channel strategies have therefore been designed to improve the management of customer relationships and simultaneously to reduce overall distribution costs. Patrick Dahmen analyses the internal and external dimensions of multi-channel strategies. Based on his professional experience in the industry and the results of an international benchmarking study he develops a management framework for the strategic design and operational implementation of multi-channel strategies. Case studies illustrate the underlying managerial challenges.

The Role of the Social Context for Strategy-Making : Examining the Impact of Embeddedness on the Performance of Strategic Initiatives Karolin Marx (auth.) Deutscher Universitäts Verlag, Gabler Edition Wissenschaft, 1. Aufl, Wiesbaden, 2004

In recent years, a new form of strategy-making has evolved within firms, which focuses on the continuous development of strategic initiatives. Nevertheless, our understanding of the professional management of strategic initiatives remains limited. Why do some initiatives fail to materialize? What role does organizational context, and more specifically its social aspect, play in this process? Karolin Marx analyzes the impact of the social context, represented by the embeddedness of the initiative teams in the intrafirm network, on the performance of strategic initiatives by studying a sample of 54 corporate strategic initiatives. The results support the significance of the social context for strategy-making. However, it is shown that social relationships are not only positive, but can also impede the successful development of strategic initiatives. Furthermore, it is underscored that exploratory initiatives prosper in a different social setting than their exploitive counterparts. Therefore management should create a balanced environment in which both types of initiatives can develop and survive.

Contractor-led Procurement: An Investigation Of Circumstances And Consequences (baubetriebswirtschaftslehre Und Infrastrukturmanagement) Christoph Winter (auth.) Deutscher Universitäts Verlag, Baubetriebswirtschaftslehre und Infrastrukturmanagement, 1, 2003

The construction industry is facing an increasingly competitive environment all over the world. Powerful clients are the driving force in changing the existing procedures of the construction industry, as they themselves are confronted by the challenges of globalisation. Whether they are contractors or consultants, there is an urgent need for organisations of the construction industry to react to the circumstances and consequences of a changing environment by reshaping their business strategies and organisational structures. Christoph Winter investigates the circumstances, which determine a contractor ́s competitive position in different construction markets for different types of clients, as well as the influence of the consultants upon the construction development process. Moreover, he analyses the crucial role that a contractor ́s supply chain must fulfil in order to be as successful as the leader of the procurement process. For the benefit of all parties of the construction process - clients, consultants and contractors - the author presents useful tools for contractors to help them to identify the appropriate procurement path from a client ́s perspective and to make the right choices of business relationships with their numerous suppliers.

Portfolio Strategies of Private Equity Firms: Theory and Evidence (Innovation und Entrepreneurship) Ulrich Lossen (auth.) Deutscher Universitäts-Verlag | GWV Fachverlage GmbH, Wiesbaden, Innovation und Entrepreneurship, 1st ed. 2007, Wiesbaden, Wiesbaden, 2007

Driven by the convergence of international financial public markets, investors around the globe are searching for alternative asset classes which enable diversification of their portfolios while earning attractive returns. Private equity, denominating equity investments in privately held companies, promises to meet both criteria. As a result, over the last three decades, private equity has become an important ingredient in the portfolios of institutional investors, such as banks, insurance companies, and pension funds. Ulrich Lossen explores the choice of portfolio strategies by private equity firms and the impact of this choice on funds’ performance. Therefore, he applies advanced econometric methods to a unique data set of private equity funds. In a first step, he analyzes the influence of external factors on the choice of private equity firms to diversify their portfolios across different dimensions, such as financing stages, industries, and geographic regions. Then, he examines the impact of such diversification on private equity funds’ performance. The findings can help investors and private equity managers in making proper investment decisions.

The long term fertilization trials in Halle (Saale), Germany : a tool for sustainable and environmentally compatible land management ; contributions of plant nutrition science in Halle 13 Wolfgang Merbach, Annette Deubel (auth.) Deutscher Universitätsverlag; Wolfgang Merbach, Teubner research, 2nd revised edition, Wiesbaden, 2007

Due to their buffer capacity, soils and ecological systems usually react gradually to different land use or climatic changes. Hence, effects are often quantifiable only after many decades. Long-term field experiments make it possible to recognize such long-term effects, which are caused e.g. by different fertilization treatments, for the respective location. This knowledge is essential for developing sustainable and ecologically desirable management concepts. With the “eternal rye” experiment, laid out by Julius Kühn in 1878, the Institute of Agricultural and Nutritional Sciences of the Martin Luther University Halle-Wittenberg has the second oldest long-term fertilization trial of the world after Rothamstedt (UK). In addition, four more long-term fertilization experiments as well as one soil development trial exist in Halle, all founded by Karl Schmalfuß in 1948/49. Wolfgang Merbach and Annette Deubel summarize the most important results and draw conclusions for the continuation of these internationally important experiments.

Equity Financing and Covenants in Venture Capital: An Augmented Contracting Approach to Optimal German Contract Design (ebs-Forschung, Schriftenreihe ... BUSINESS SCHOOL Schloß Reichartshausen (58)) Karoline Jung-Senssfelder (auth.) Deutscher Universitätsverlag, Ebs-Forschung - Schriftenreihe der European Business School Schloss Reichartshausen, 58, 1. Aufl, Wiesbaden, 2006

Venture capital contracts define the rules of the investment for the venture capitalist and the portfolio company. They therefore have the potential to impact the success of the business and the venture capitalist's return. For this reason, contracts have recently attracted great research interest. Karoline Jung-Senssfelder presents the first augmented contracting analysis, focusing on the interaction of both, financial instruments and covenants, in the creation of incentives to the contracting parties. With a focus on the German market, she integrates the findings of her model-based theoretical and survey-based empirical analyses to derive value-adding implications for an incentive-compatible contract design in the German venture capital market.
