Описание: As the world emerges from one of the biggest ?nancial crises in history, the list of causative factors for the global bubble that preceded it becomes clear. A lack of transparency in the investment markets, a rush to illiquid assets and a glori?cation of aggressive investment strategies are some of those factors. If we can learn anything from the crisis, it de?nitely includes that many of the largest and most important investors knew too little about how to deal with investments outside the classic, public stock markets. Indeed, investments in illiquid Private Equity (PE) and Venture Capital (VC) funds have played a signi?cant role in many seemingly low-risk, high-return investment strategies, even though investors in these funds had few guidelines from academics or regulators on how to treat this asset class. This is unfortunate, not only because these funds play a crucial role in the ?nancing of non-public companies - e.g. the essential ?nancing of many in- vative start-up ?rms or the capital investments in so many non-public medi- sized companies. The lack of analysis is also regrettable, since economically important investors, e.g. pension funds or insurances, seek to diversify their investments. But only few studies have empirically analyzed how investors choose and invest in PE and VC funds. Daniel Hobohm helps to ?ll this - search gap with his doctoral thesis.

Описание: Foreword A diversified firm's withdrawal from a business unit (i.e. business exit) is a very - portant phenomenon in management practice. In fact, studies from the U.S. show that approximately 2,500 business units are sold each year. According to a survey of the consulting firm Accenture among 150 executives from the Fortune 1000 companies, 59 % of the persons polled are momentarily divesting at least one business unit. - though divestitures are highly relevant in practice, researchers in strategic management tend to prefer investigating the counterpart of exit, namely the acquisition of business units. Trying to fill this gap, Ms. Decker's dissertation aims to shed light on the impact of business exit on the corporate strategy of the divesting parent firm. First, Ms. Decker summarizes the literature on business exit from the last three d- ades in a systematic and comprehensible way. This is a deserving task since the l- erature on this topic is widely dispersed, e.g. in the field of finance, amongst others. Referring to the existing findings, the literature review shows that prior research has mainly focused on two questions: "What factors promote business exit?" and "What are the financial outcomes of business exit for the divesting parent firm?." Drawing on this background, the author convincingly argues that, up to now, the strategic impli- tions of business exit for the divesting parent firm have largely been ignored.
Описание: This book has been submitted as dissertation at the Faculty of Business Man- agement and Economics at Dresden University of Technology, Germany on January 19, 2005. Throughout the completion of this thesis, I received much encouragement and advice from mentors, colleagues and friends. I would like to take this opportunity to thank all of them. First of all, I would like to express my gratitude to my supervisor Prof. Dr. Michael Schefczyk for providing a fruitful research atmosphere at the SAP Chair for Entrep- neurship and Innovation at Dresden University of Technology. His comments and support helped me develop and complete this thesis. Moreover, I thank Prof. Schefczyk for supporting my ambitions to conduct research in the United States. Second, I am especially grateful to Prof. Andrew L. Zacharakis, Ph.D. for hosting me as visiting scholar at Babson College and for supervising my project during this time. This thesis benefited tremendously from his knowledge and from his out- standing support. His encouragement and support also helped me survive less pro- ductive times. A great debt is to Prof. Dr. Herman Locarek-Junge who accepted the burden of being my second examiner at Dresden University of Technology. The final paper benefited tremendously from conversations with several experi- enced researchers and practitioners in the United States. I want to thank Elaine I.
