Financial Reporting Quality in Private Equity Backed Companies: The Impact of Ownership Concentration

We empirically show on a sample of 270 unquoted, private equity backed companies that the shareholder structure of private companies impacts the quality of their publicly available accounting information. More precisely, companies in which private equity (PE) investors have a high equity stake produce lower quality accounting information than companies in which PE investors have a low equity stake, after controlling for factors like company size and age. We explain our findings by arguing that PE investors with low equity stakes have a higher need for high quality accounting information whereas PE investors with high equity stakes have other means to closely monitor their portfolio companies. This paper has benefited form discussions with workshop participants at the Max Planck Institute. We specifically want to thank Lorraine Uhlaner and Mike Wright (guest editors), two anonymous referees as well as ignace De Beelde, Wouter De Maeseneire, Marc Deloof, Miguel Meuleman and Lloyd Steier for helpful suggestions. Part of this research was completed when Christof Beuselinck was an FWO Scholar at Ghent University.

政府民生消费性支出对居民消费的影响——基于中国居民消费行为的视角

以中国居民消费行为特征为出发点,通过构建符合中国国情的消费函数,从理论和实证角度分析政府民生消费性支出对居民消费的影响。理论和实证检验分析都表明,政府民生消费性支出与居民消费存在显著的互补关系,并且,政府民生消费性支出是导致居民消费变动的主要影响因素之一。因此,政府今后应进一步加大教育、医疗、社会保障、住房等方面的民生消费性支出,以利于构建强有力的社会安全网,降低居民对未来的"大额刚性支出"预期,促进居民消费需求的稳定增长。

中国出境旅游发展及其影响的初步研究

出境旅游持续快速增长,国际旅游双流格局渐次形成,是当前中国旅游业国际化的主要表现.出境旅游发展会改变国际旅游收支关系,但是,即使出现旅游赤字,也不一定对宏观经济产生负面作用.出境旅游发展会刺激中国入境旅游增长,促进旅游企业的跨国经营,有利于提升中国旅游产业的整体素质.当前,政府无需对出境旅游加以直接规制,但需要采取多种跟进措施.     

外国直接投资与我国对外贸易的实证研究

目前关于外国直接投资(FDI)与一国出口贸易间关系的研究已由最初的定性向定量发展,但多数定量分析集中在直接投资与出口的相关因果关系上。本文则利用我国改革开放以来到加入世贸组织之前的数据,对FDI与我国的出口规模、出口产品结构、出口产品竞争力等进行相关性分析。     

中国城乡二元经济结构的刚性持续存在并加剧的成因

在行政、市场共同因素的作用下形成并持续发展的城乡二元经济结构是农村剩余劳动力转移的障碍的主要因素之一,农村剩余劳动力转移的困难反过来又是加剧二元经济结构强度的直接原因,要推行我国二元经济结构的转换,必须依靠政府行为的力量,积极发展“民办型”农村服务体系,加速城镇化建设,发展乡镇企业。     

The market microstructure of central bank intervention

How quickly do central bank intervention operations impact the foreign exchange market? And, do intra-daily market conditions influence the effectiveness of central bank interventions? This paper uses high-frequency intra-daily data to examine the relationship between the efficacy of intervention operations and the “state of the market” at the moment that the operation is made public. The results indicate that some traders typically know that the Fed is intervening at least 1 h prior to the public release of the information in newswire reports. Also, the evidence suggests that the timing of intervention operations matters—interventions that occur during heavy trading volume, that are closely timed to scheduled macro announcements, and that are coordinated with another central bank are the most likely to have large effects.     

Integrated marketing as management of holistic consumer experience

In a bid to combine the two major perspectives (strategic communications and strategic brand management) of Integrated Marketing Communications (IMC), this article proposes a Holistic Consumer Experience Management framework. According to the framework, the key mission of IMC is to effectively manage the mediated impression of and the direct encounter with the brand, so that synergism ensues among all the interrelated elements of IMC, including research and development, manufacturing, price formulation, channel arrangement, consumer service management, marketing message construction, and communication program execution. As such, IMC is capable of enhancing the holistic consumer experience and creating a holistic brand value structure, which can unite the consumer's sensory, emotional, social, and intellectual experiences in a new and positive way.
