Bör aktieägare förespråka aktierelaterade incitamentsprogram? : - En kvantitativ studie av bolag noterade på StockholmsbörsenJedemark, Erik, Norlin, Anton January 2021 (has links)
Share-based incentive programs have become increasingly common in Sweden. At the same time, there is criticism of whether these have a positive effect on companies or not. The programs are intended to solve the so-called principal-agent problem, which arises when the ownership and control in a company are separated. Share-based incentive programs are intended to solve this dilemma by making the employees who participate in the program’s shareholders of the company. This study has examined whether share-based incentive programs benefit the companies’ shareholders. The study investigates this by using a first-difference method, based on the publicly traded companies at Nasdaq Stockholm. The study takes support from the principal-agent theory, the managerial power theory, and other studies within the field. The result from the study shows that there is no significant difference between the companies that use the share-based incentive programs and the companies that do not. Based on this result, it is concluded that share-related incentive programs do not benefit shareholders. / Aktierelaterade incitamentsprogram blir allt vanligare i Sverige. Samtidigt finns det kritik mot huruvida dessa har en positiv effekt för företag eller inte. Programmen är tänkta att lösa det så kallad agentproblemet, som uppstår när ägandet och kontrollen i företag är separerade. Aktierelaterade incitamentsprogram är tänkta att lösa detta dilemma genom att göra de anställda som deltar i programmen till aktieägare i företaget. Denna studie har därför valt att undersöka huruvida aktierelaterade incitamentsprogram gynnar bolagets aktieägare. Studien undersöker detta genom att använda sig av en first-difference metod som baseras på bolagen på Stockholmsbörsen. Studien tar stöd från agentteorin, managerial power teorin samt tidigare forskning inom området. Resultatet från studien visar att det inte finns någon signifikant skillnad mellan bolagen som använder sig av de aktierelaterade incitamentsprogrammen och bolagen som inte använder sig av programmen. Utifrån detta resultat dras slutsatsen att aktierelaterade incitamentsprogram inte gynnar aktieägare.

Similar is not equal in happiness : A cross country comparison of national-level economic variables and their effect on average happinessHansson, Jesper, Olsson, Simon January 2022 (has links)
Happiness is a well-researched and complex field of science. The complexity creates results that are diverse from study to study. Macro-economic variables such as income inequality, inflation and unemployment are frequently occurring. Because studies in happiness are diverse in their conclusions, we hypothesise that time-series regressions on separate western European countries will create different results. In order to find out if same macroeconomic variables affect nations average happiness differently. We created time-series regressions with robust standard errors between 1983-2020 for Denmark, Netherlands, Belgium, and France separately. Using initially mentioned variables in order to determine their effects on average happiness, taken from Veenhoven´s World Database of Happiness, our results were as diverse as previous research. The only variable that displayed consensus in its effect was inflation. Income inequality (GINI) and unemployment rate depicts all possible hypothesis, negative, positive, and no correlation depending on nation. This indicates that every country might react differently and perhaps should not be bundled together and generalized. Future research needs to be conducted in similar manner as the time-series data increases, and to further analyze if happiness is a practical and nation-comparable measure of welfare.

Globalization, Migration and the U.S. Labor Market for Physicians: The Impact of Immigration on Local WagesCook, Finnie B 05 November 2009 (has links)
The healthcare labor market has experienced some significant changes in the last half century, including the establishment of Medicare and Medicaid in 1965, the emergence of managed care in the 1980s, and the worldwide mobility of labor encouraged by globalization. Currently, more than 25% of physicians working in the U.S. are foreign-born. The existing body of literature related to the impact of immigration on local wages has to date found conflicting results. The purpose of this research is to evaluate the impact of immigration of foreign physicians on local physician wages. This study employs physician survey data from the AMA Physician Masterfile for the years 1997 through 2007 combined with wage data published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics and data from other government sources. Several econometric models are employed to analyze the wage impacts of immigration, including ordinary least squares, fixed effects, two-stage least squares and a first-difference approach to control for endogenous location choice.
The results of this study provide evidence that in the short-run, the impacts of immigration of physicians on area wages is small but positive. In the long run, however, wages adjust and the impact becomes negative and statistically significant, although the magnitude of the impact of a one percentage point increase in the share of immigrant physicians in an area is less than 0.2%. The negative wage effects of immigration tend to be larger for foreign-born physicians educated in the U.S. compared with foreign-born international medical graduates.
The study also finds evidence that the negative effects of immigration tend to be offset by outflows of the lowest paid native physicians. Furthermore, physicians tend to locate in areas where wages are already higher, and foreign-born physicians are more likely than their native counterparts to work in larger cities as opposed to rural areas.
The research has important policy implications in the presence of current debate over immigration law and healthcare reform and in an era of increasing mobility of labor due to globalization.

Empirická analýza projektu: Stáže ve firmách / The empirical analysis of the project: Stáže ve firmáchŠvarc, Michal January 2013 (has links)
This paper is dedicated to the empirical analysis of the pilot trainee project Stáže ve firmách, which is considered as treatment in this analysis. The main objective of the empirical analysis is estimation of average treatment effect(ATE) and average treatment effect on treated(ATET) for characteristics like socioeconomic status and wage. Counterfactual methods for policy impact evaluation like Difference in Differences Estimator(DiD), First Differences Estimator(FD) and Propensity Score Matching(PSM) are used to estimation mentioned effects. This paper contains extension of Assignment Problem that is used for people matching purposes as alternative for PSM. This way of matching provides better control over creation of couples. Resulting pairs are more similar in selected characteristics due to better control during couples creation process.

Posouzení vybraných ukazatelů společnosti pomocí časových řad / Assessing Selected Indicators of a Company Using Time SeriesVšianský, Martin January 2013 (has links)
This thesis focuses on company Authentica Ltd., which financial indicators have been adapted for time series analysis, over the last 9 years. The aim of this work is to evaluate financial health of the company by using statistical methods, and to offer suggestions for improvement of its economic status. My dissertation is divided into three parts. The first part is describing the theory of statistical analysis of time series. The second part is then the practical one, in which Authentica Ltd. is introduced, and subsequently the statistical methods - described in the first part - are applied using a form created in Visual Basic to the real annual reports data. In this part I have also made a two-year prediction for selected financial indicators. The third part of this thesis is aiming to provide proposals for solution of the challenges identified in the second part.

Price adjustment and vacancies on theStockholm market – Estimation of rent levelsdue to office-allocations / Prisjustering och vakanser påStockholmsmarknaden – Estimering avhyresnivåer mot bakgrund avkontorsallokeringar I CBDJonsson, Sebastian January 2013 (has links)
The Stockholm office market segment have for a long time been considered a safe haven when it comes to withstand negative turmoil in the form of rental compression due to economic fluctuation, especially in the CBD demographic. Recently however, a large number of banks and institutions, amounting to some 200000 square meters, have decided to relocate to more peripheral locations with the aim of cost reductions on rent. This mass exodus is studied with focus on rental dynamics as the result of increased vacancies. Other variables are stock changes and employment. The method is econometric combined with an interview series. The data is a panel dataset containing 900 observations. The different models that are being used is the vacancy gap model, an Error Correction Model and a dynamic lag model in the form of a first difference model. Due to non-stationary variables, some models were rejected. A prognosis model has been created for the economic calculations. The results are displayed in a number of scenarios ranging from unchanged rents to severe rental drops. As a comprehensive result this study concludes that a rental drop in the range of 10-20 percent is to be expected. A number of positive side effects are expected to unfold as a result of the relocations. / Stockholmsmarknadens kontorssegment har länge setts på som säker vad gäller att kunna motstå negativ turbulens i form av hyres press på grund av ekonomiska svängningar, och då speciellt marknaden för City eller CBD. Nyligen har dock en stor mängd banker och institutioner om cirka 200000 kvadratmeter bestämt sig för att lokalisera sig i mer perifera lokaler med kostnads reduceringar i form av lägre hyror som mål. Den här massutflyttningen har studerats med fokus på hyresdynamik som ett resultat av ökade vakanser. Andra variabler är ändringar i stocken och sysselsättning. Metoden är ekonometrisk och kombineras med en intervjuserie. Data består av ett paneldatasett innehållande 900 observationer. De olika modellerna som används är en vakansgapsmodell, en Error Correction modell (ECM) och en första differens modell. På grund av icke stationära variabler har vissa modeller förkastats. En prognostiseringsmodell har skapats för de ekonomiska beräkningarna. Resultaten redovisas i olika scenarion som består i allt från att hyrorna inte ändras alls till svåra hyresfall. Ett samlat resultat av studien föreslår ett hyresfall på 10-20 procent. En mängd positiva bieffekter förväntas uppstå som ett resultat av om lokalisationerna.
