Full textThe following study is an empirical research, having as its object the indicators of the Índice Paulista de Responsabilidade Social (São Paulo Index of Social Responsibility, here referred as IPRS). Having this Index as reference, we analyze education and development of the cities located in the Northwest of São Paulo State, aiming to understand which factors lead to the good results in schooling indicators obtained by a group of low income cities, rated in group 3 in the IPRS. The study?s purpose is to analyze (through a detailed and critical look at the variables that compose the IPRS) its capacity of expressing the reality of the educational environment in the cities as well as being useful in the definition of policies that would aim to strengthen its development actions. Considering this, we intend to contribute to the debate on the creation of educational indicators that would be more adequate to the analysis of development nowadays. We take as a premise the relevance of education in the current development actions, not seen as a synonym to economical growth anymore, stressing the inclusion of the educational dimension in the measuring instruments of human development. We address the concepts of development seen as freedom and social capital as a guideline to understand the advent of a new generation of development indicators among which is the São Paulo index. These concepts are approached based on the references of theories given by Sen, Putnam, Bourdieu and Coleman, purposing to analyze the capacity of IPRS to encompass all these concepts within its boundaries. Concurrently, we present and examine the IPRS indicators in São Paulo State and in the cities of the Northwestern region, attempting to understand what leads to the appearance of an expressive number of low income cities with satisfactory social indicators. In order to do that we use the secondary data of the IPRS database from Fundação Seade. Considering this, two aspects are evidenced: the relevance of the schooling dimension in the good social results obtained by these cities and the inadequacy of the educational indicators in the São Paulo index, especially in taking into consideration other quantitative variables related to the educational environment available and to the quality of the educational processes developed. The following final points are then presented: the IPRS is an indicator that moves towards to its organization and capacity of depicting the reality of the cities development, distancing itself from the standardization of synthetic indicators, though still presenting some limitation regarding the ability to analyze the educational environment and the education quality offered, and thus effectively collaborate as an instrument of monitoring and assessment of the policies that aim the strengthening of the development actions for São Paulo cities.

Esta pesquisa está inserida no campo das Finanças Comportamentais, que foram influenciadas principalmente pela Teoria do Prospecto. Esta foi desenvolvida por Kahneman e Tversky (1979) e foi basicamente uma crítica à Teoria da Utilidade Esperada que supõe a perfeita racionalidade do tomador de decisão, fato que nem sempre corresponde ao comportamento normal das pessoas e investidores em particular. Foi testado o Efeito Disposição em empresas que realizaram IPO (Initial Public Offering) na Bovespa entre 1995 e 2008. Segundo o Efeito Disposição os investidores tendem a realizar os lucros (vendendo ativos que tiveram seus valores apreciados - winners) mais rapidamente do que os prejuízos (vendendo ativos que tiveram seus valores depreciados - losers). Esta afirmação tem como base a Teoria do Prospecto, já mencionada, que afirma que os investidores são avessos ao risco no campo dos ganhos e propensos ao risco no campo das perdas. Já o IPO representa a abertura de capital da empresa, sendo que, neste processo, todos os investidores partem de um mesmo preço de compra das ações. Esse fato tende a dar maior visibilidade ao Efeito Disposição levando em conta a quantidade de títulos negociados. Isto porque, com o preço de referência igual para todos os investidores, um eventual winner ou loser será observado igualmente nos investidores, conseqüentemente esses tendem a reter ou a vender as suas ações conforme sua posição, ou seja, no campo dos ganhos todos tendem a manter as ações em carteira, sendo o oposto no campo das perdas. A cada negócio ocorrido o preço de referência do investidor envolvido é alterado. Nesse mesmo sentido, também foi testada a intensidade do Efeito Disposição conforme o período após o IPO visto que, conforme o preço de referência dos investidores vai sendo alterado, a quantidade de títulos negociados fica cada vez menos influenciada pelo efeito. Foram utilizadas regressões, correlações e testes t paramétricos e não paramétricos para a confirmação das hipóteses de pesquisa. Os resultados evidenciaram que o Efeito Disposição é observado nos IPOs, sendo confirmada também a maior intensidade conforme a proximidade da data de abertura de capital. Através de testes complementares, também se concluiu que o mercado brasileiro apresenta características de comportamento similares as observadas por Kaustia (2004) nos Estados Unidos.

Full textAlthough limited as an expression of health-related events and despite problems concerning the coverage and quality of available data, mortality estimates are among the most important foundations for the planning and evaluation of health services. Traditionally, mortality has been estimated according to the gross and specific mortality rates in a given population. However, these indicators consider the impact of death causes alone, without qualifying the burden resulting from deaths to society. The importance of premature mortality as a social expression of the burden of death has therefore received increasing attention, as it occurs at an age range of high creativity and productivity and affects not only the individual and his direct social group, but society as a whole, whose economic and intellectual potential is affected (REICHENHEIM; WERNECK, 1994). The estimate of potential years of life lost (PYLL) provides a more detailed assessment of mortality by combining death rates and the age when death occurs (KERR-PONTES; ROUQUAYROL, 1999 apud SAUER; WAGNER, 2003, p. 1520). Our study was aimed at assessing the evolution of PYLL rates in the total population of cities and health districts in the State of São Paulo, Brazil, between 2003 and 2013. We also assessed the retrospective evolution of the 15 death causes with the greatest PYLL rates in 2013 for the total population of the State of São Paulo. In order to achieve this, we created a database with information on deaths occurred in the state between 2003 and 2013 which were processed by the Mortality Information System (MIS), with death causes classified according to the 10th revision of the International Classification of Diseases (ICD-10). PYLL rates were calculated according to the method proposed by Romeder and McWhinnie (1988) and data charts 9 were created in TabWin to display the evolution of PYLL rates in the health districts of the state. Line graphs were created to display the evolution of the 15 death causes with the highest PYLL rates between 2003 and 2013. We further assessed the general mortality rate (GMR), child mortality rates (CMR), and mother mortality rates (MMR). Finally, we assessed the education, longevity, and wealth dimensions of the São Paulo Index of Social Responsibility (SPISR) in each of its groups; absolute and relative frequency of the SPISR in each of its groups; relationship of the SPISR according to the Regional Health Care Networks (RHCN); SPISR relationship according to population groups; PYLL rates by SPISR group; PYLL rates by population groups; PYLL rates by RHCN; SPISR dimension \'wealth\' by PYLL rates; SPISR dimension \'longevity\' by PYLL rates; SPISR dimension \'education\' by PYLL rates; and correlations between SPISR dimensions and PYLL rates. All the analyses are valid for the State of São Paulo in the year of 2012 and were made using the Stata 9.0 software. The GMR in the State of São Paulo for the period of 2003-2013 was worse compared to Brazil, and so was the CMR, with a predominance of the post-neonatal component in the State. The MMR indicated the availability of adequate prenatal, delivery, and postpartum assistance in the State during the period. The data charts displaying the evolution of PYLL rates in the State of São Paulo show that the RHCNs with the highest PYLL rates were 6, 7, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, and 17. From the main 15 death causes according to PYLL rates in the period, 9 can be prevented in primary care. Under-recording and the triple load of diseases were also detected. The SPISR of most of the 645 municipalities in the State of São Paulo in the year 2012 was 4. The probability that the highest PYLL rate was associated with a SPISR of 4 was 95%, with a confidence interval between 17325.04 and 18424.20. An ANOVA with 4 degrees of freedom showed significant differences (p<0.05) in PYLL rates by SPISR group. With 5 degrees of freedom, the test of Kruskal-Wallis provided significant results (p<0.05), indicating the existence of differences between population groups in respect to PYLL rates. With 16 degrees of freedom, the Kruskal-Wallis test indicated the existence of significant differences between the RHCNs in terms of PYLL rates. PYLL rates decreased, although subtly, with the increase of wealth in the SPISR. Longevity and PYLL rates remained stable. As education increased, PYLL rates also increased. Since there was a positive correlation between wealth, longevity, and education, increased wealth was associated 10 with increased longevity and education as well. Concerning the relationship between PYLL rates and wealth and longevity, we found a negative correlation coefficient, indicating that as wealth and longevity increased, PYLL rates decreased. In respect to education, however, the correlation with PYLL rates was positive, indicating that increases in education were associated with increases in PYLL rates. Finally, this dissertation could be presented to the health authorities of the State of São Paulo as a project to reduce early mortality, focused on improvements in basic education, expansion of high-quality health services, and improvements in public security

Em uma oferta inicial de ações, uma das dificuldades dos investidores é avaliar que preço pagar pela ação lançada. Para diminuir tal dificuldade, a Comissão de Valores Imobiliários exige que as empresas emissoras apresentem demonstrativos financeiros dos últimos três anos de operações. Esta dissertação avalia a precisão desses demonstrativos financeiros, através de uma amostra de 67 emissões de ações na Bovespa entre 2002 e 2007. A análise dos dados mostra que as emissões com um único banco coordenador apresentam uma maior incidência de rubricas discriminatórias, que aumentam os lucros acumulados. Tais rubricas aparecem mais frequentemente em demonstrativos no formato pró-forma, que não impõem uma responsabilidade legal sobre os auditores, consistente com a hipótese de que as rubricas discricionárias têm por finalidade inflar os lucros contábeis.
Investors face the challenge to value the price of a share during na ipo. With the purpose of improving their ability, the Brazilian Securities and Exchange Commission (CVM) demands companies to present financial statements for the last three years of continuing operations. This dissertation assesses the quality of these financial statements using a sample of 67 IPOs that took place at São Paulo Stock Exchange between 2002 and 2007. The analysis of the prospectuses gives us evidence that IPOs with only one investment bank on their syndicate present higher discretionary accruals and by consequence, reported earnings. The use of discretionary accruals is more common in pro forma financial statements which exempt auditing companies from legal responsibility and therefore enhance the hypothesis that discretionary accruals are used in order to inflate earnings.

A seguinte dissertação é uma reflexão acerca da atuação direta de grupos civis como agentes do Golpe Civil-Militar no Brasil em 1964, dando ênfase à importância da produção cinematográfica do Instituto de Pesquisa e Estudos Sociais - IPÊS, um grupo fundado em 1961 pela convergência de um posicionamento anticomunista com a ambição de reformar e remodelar o Estado brasileiro. A partir dessa análise da cinematografia do Instituto, mostramos como essa produção cinematográfica, repleta de imagens políticas e simbólicas, foi importante para a elaboração e legitimação de uma Cultura Política liberal, anticomunista, antipopulista e cristã. Esse discurso visava à preservação da nação diante da necessidade de construção de uma nova identidade nacional, a partir de concepções discutidas dentro das elites tecnocratas dos empresários das multinacionais e seguindo a logística capitalista embasada pela Aliança para o Progresso da América Latina e os preceitos religiosos da Encíclica Mater et Magistra. Dessa forma, nesta dissertação questionamos a possibilidade de vislumbrar uma Cultura Política dentro do discurso cinematográfico do IPÊS e a importância dessa atividade de propaganda na organização de um movimento político, tal como um partido, para arquitetar o Golpe ao governo de João Goulart.

From this analysis about thecinematography of Institute, we show how this productions, full ofpolitical and symbolic images, was important for the development andlegitimization of a liberal, anti-comunist, anti-populist and ChristianPolitical Culture. This speech was intended to preserve of the nationbefore the need to build a new national identity from concepts discussedwithin the multinational´s technocrats elite and the capitalist logisticgrounded by the Alliance for Progress in Latin America and thereligious precepts of Encyclical Mater et Magistra. Thus, thisdissertation question the possibility of glimpse a Political Culture on thecinematograph discourse of IPÊS and the importance of this activityadvertising in organizing a political movement, as a party, tomastermind the coup in João Goulart´s government.

Full textEnquadramento: As IPSS debatem-se com constrangimentos de ordem financeira que podem ameaçar o seu desempenho. O Estado é o seu maior financiador, mas a tendência de diminuição dos apoios públicos impõe às IPSS encontrem outras formas de financiamento. As IPSS devem garantir a sua sustentabilidade financeira através da diversificação das fontes de financiamento (aumento do financiamento privado) e da implementação de estratégias de redução de custos e aumento das receitas. A gestão dos recursos das IPSS deve ser realizada de uma forma eficiente e eficaz, com vista à construção de uma organização sustentável que cumpra a sua missão e atinja os seus objetivos de carácter social. Objetivos: O objetivo geral do estudo é o seguinte: identificar as estratégias de financiamento que fomentam a sustentabilidade das IPSS. Os objetivos específicos são os seguintes: (1) Conhecer a tipologia das fontes de financiamento das IPSS; (2) Identificar os benefícios e os riscos da diversificação das fontes de financiamento das IPSS; (3) Analisar as fontes de receitas e de custos das IPSS; (4) Identificar os fatores que contribuem para vulnerabilidade financeira das IPSS; (5) Identificar as ações das IPSS que visam uma melhoria da sua sustentabilidade financeira. Métodos: Estudo de caso de 4 IPSS, com utilização de entrevista semi-estruturada (9 entrevistas) e análise documental. Recurso ao software NVivo 10 para categorização dos dados e à análise de conteúdo para interpretação dos dados recolhidos. Resultados:Os Acordos de Cooperação com a Segurança Social são a melhor estratégia para garantir a sustentabilidade financeira das IPSS. Estas desenvolvem um conjunto de ações que visam a melhoria da sua sustentabilidade económica, tais como, a rentabilização de recursos, a redução de despesas, o desenvolvimento de serviços de valor acrescentado e a angariação de recursos. As IPSS sentem necessidade de diversificar as fontes de financiamento (desenvolvimento de atividades complementares como fonte de receita) e apresentam preocupações relacionadas com o cumprimento da sua missão social (intervenção orientada para as necessidades dos stakeholders). Implicações:O estudo sugere a importância das IPSS diversificarem as suas fontes de financiamentoe explorar iniciativas de carácter privado que permitam criar lucro para desenvolver os objetivos e a missão da organização. Recomenda-se a replicação do estudo com uma amostra mais alargada.
Background: Private Institutions of Social Solidarity (PISS) struggle with financial constraints that can jeopardize their performance. The State is the PISS main financier, but the tendency to decrease public support imposes on PISS to find new sources of funding. PISS must assure their financial sustainability through the diversification of funding sources (increase of private funding) and the implementation of strategies to reduce the costs and increase the revenues. Managing the PISS sources must be done in an efficient and effective way, with the intent to build a sustainable organization that fulfills its mission and reaches its social goals. Objectives:This study’s main objective is to: identify financial strategies that promote the PISS sustainability. The specific objectives are to: (1) know the types of PISS financial sources; (2) identify the benefits and the risks of diversifying the PISS sources of funding; (3) analyze the sources of revenue and of PISS costs; (4) identify the factors that contribute to PISS financial vulnerability; (5) Identify the actions of PISS aimed at improving its financial sustainability. Methods: Case study of 4 PISS, using semi-structured interviews (9 interviews) and documental analysis. Resorting to the NVivo10 software to categorize data and to do content analysisto interpret the collected data. Results:The cooperation agreements with the Social Security are the best strategy to ensure the financial sustainability of the PISS. These develop a set of actions aimed at improving their economic sustainability, such as the profitability of resources, reducing costs, the development of value-added services and fundraising. The PISSfeel the need to diversify sources of funding (development of complementary activities as a source of revenue) and have concerns about the fulfillment of its social mission (targeted intervention to the needs of stakeholders). Implications: The study suggests the importance of PISS diversifying their funding sources and exploring private initiatives that build profit to develop the goals and mission of the organization. It is recommended to replicate the study with a larger sample.

The purpose of this study is to empirically analyze the main factors that determine the first-day return and the Flipping activity in Brazilian IPOs, taking into account expected results according to national and international researches. The data base encompasses IPOs that took place between May 2004 and February 2011, summing up to 129 IPOs and approximately R$ 128 billion offering. The first-day return, which means the ‘money left on the table’, was on average 4.6% taking into consideration the issue price, while the Flipping activity totalized R$ 7.2 billion, meaning 5.6% of the offering. The first-day return was analyzed before and after the first trade, and evidences were found supporting (a) the exogenous determination of the issue price, (b) the opening price dependence of prospectus disclosure and of other variables, observable previously to the bookbuilding process, and (c) the cascade behavior of investors in the pricing after the first trade, particularly driven by the underwriter behavior. In regards to the Flipping, it was notorious depending on how much the IPO succeeded, being concentrated in and homogeneous along the first-day, despite the intense negotiation in the first minute. As a general contribution to literature, it was concluded that Information Asymmetry Theory arguments are not sufficient to explain the first-day Underpricing and the Flipping, being necessary arguments based on Behavioral Finance adapted to an intraday perspective.
Este trabalho analisa empiricamente os fatores determinantes do retorno e do ‘Flipping’ no primeiro dia de negociação em IPOs no Brasil, levando em consideração os resultados esperados pela literatura nacional e internacional. A base de dados inclui IPOs realizados entre maio de 2004 e fevereiro de 2011, totalizando 129 IPOs com ofertas primária e/ou secundária e envolvendo em torno de R$ 128 bilhões. O retorno do primeiro dia, que caracteriza o ‘dinheiro deixado na mesa’, foi em média de 4,6% com relação ao preço de emissão, enquanto o ‘Flipping’ totalizou R$ 7,2 bilhões, ou seja, 5,6% da oferta. Para o retorno, analisado antes e depois da abertura, evidenciou-se (a) a determinação exógena do preço de emissão, além da (b) influência no preço de abertura do ‘disclosure’ do prospecto e de outras variáveis observáveis antes do processo de ‘bookbuilding’, como também (c) o comportamento em ‘cascata’ dos investidores na formação de preços após a abertura, particularmente catalisada pela atuação do ‘underwriter’. Já o ‘Flipping’ foi mais proeminente conforme o sucesso do IPO, sendo concentrado no primeiro dia, mas homogêneo ao longo deste, apesar da intensa negociação no primeiro minuto. Como contribuição geral para a literatura, foi constatada a insuficiência dos argumentos baseados na Teoria da Assimetria da Informação na explicação do ‘Underpricing’ e do ‘Flipping’ no primeiro dia, sendo identificada a complementaridade de argumentos baseados em Finanças Comportamentais adaptados para o mercado intradiário

Full textPatents are a form of intellectual property rights (IPRs) that are especially relevant to promoting innovative activities. A patent grants its owner a temporary exclusive right over inventions that are new, involve an inventive step and are susceptible of industrial application. Relying on this right, inventors can protect their ideas from imitation and gain an economic return from their investments in research and development (R&D). However, the use of patents has undergone a significant transformation, extending far beyond the traditional purpose of rewarding innovative efforts. Particularly in the field of Information and Communication Technology (ICT), patents are increasingly used as strategic tools (Blind, 2021). Moreover, over the past three decades, the sharp increase in the number of granted patents and the unprecedented flourishing of patent trading have paved the way for new intermediaries in the market for technology (Hagiu and Yoffie, 2013). Non-practicing entities (NPEs)—firms that do not use their patents in a traditional manufacturing sense, but primarily engage in licensing and enforcement—have emerged as prominent actors on the patent market (Golden, 2007; Feldman and Ewing, 2012). Also referred to as Patent Assertion Entities (PAEs), sometimes pejoratively called "patent trolls," NPEs have greatly polarized the academic and policy debate. Due to their non-manufacturing status, NPEs have unique advantages over operating companies. They are typically shielded from patent infringement counter-claims and have recently faced allegations of employing patent "hold-up" strategies (Lemley and Shapiro, 2007), which some argue it imposes a significant "tax on innovation" with potential negative effects on subsequent innovation (Chien, 2008). While NPEs have been extensively analyzed in the US patent market since their emergence in the early 2000s (Mezzanotti, 2021; Lemley and Zyontz, 2021), it is only recently that researchers have started to investigate their presence in the European technology market (Fusco, 2013; Love, 2013; Leiponen and Delcamp, 2019). This thesis aims to address these research gaps by examining the NPE phenomenon in the European patent marketplace. First, we extensively explore and analyze the literature on NPE business models by adopting a novel bibliometric approach guided by the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA) protocol for systematic literature reviews. In addition, we will integrate three relevant NPE business models case studies. Second, we empirically investigate the presence of NPEs in the European patent market through a brand- new dataset of NPE patent filings and acquisitions at the European Patent Office (EPO). Furthermore, we develop an original taxonomy, thus categorizing NPEs into three business models: "Litigation," "Portfolio" and "Technology" NPEs. Finally, we empirically explore the interplay between the quality characteristics of the asserted patent and the propensity of NPEs to choose specific European jurisdictions where to initiate litigation (forum shopping)

Full textIPMS Chile es una agrupación de modelistas nacionales, que lleva más de 25 años siendo un lugar de encuentro para los modelistas nacionales. Su principal labor, a lo largo de los años, ha sido la de difundir, desarrollar y expandir el arte del modelismo. El objetivo general de la memoria es lograr diseñar un plan que ayude a esta agrupación a mejorar su funcionamiento actual y que le permita proyectarse hacia el futuro. Esta memoria recopila análisis realizados tanto al ambiente externo de la organización, a las otras organizaciones parecidas y las tiendas de modelismo. Además se tocan variados temas concernientes a la organización, tratando de analizar cada arista de la misma. Se usó el concepto del capital social para diagnosticar a la comunidad y descubrir sus pensamientos, sus percepciones y qué es lo que esperan de una organización como IPMS Chile. Los resultados más importantes fueron el reconocer la gran diversidad de modelistas existentes en el círculo de la organización y el reto que plantea el tener que dirigir y motivar a un grupo tan homogéneo como ese. Las nuevas tecnologías de información y comunicación han cambiado la forma como se aprende y como se comunican las personas, lo que ha llegado también a IPMS Chile. Si quiere desarrollarse, la organización tendrá que asumir otros roles y objetivos. Los modelistas ven a IPMS Chile tomando el rol de unir a los modelistas chilenos, de seguir difundiendo y fomentando el hobby, siendo el nexo fundamental con otras instituciones (museos, fuerzas armadas, otros clubes, etc.). Está en IPMS Chile plantearse a sí misma sus objetivos y sus metas, por el momento, tiene a una gran cantidad de personas asociadas. Falta entonces, en IPMS Chile, la institucionalidad, los liderazgos y los objetivos que puedan motivar un mayor compromiso de los modelistas con el desarrollo de su hobby en el país.

Full textNos últimos 10 anos, bolsas de valores de vários países buscaram alianças ou implementaram novas regras de governança que, em geral, visam a proteger os acionistas minoritários. O Novo Mercado foi criado pela BOVESPA dentro desse contexto, inspirado no Neuer Markt alemão. Ao aderir às regras do Novo Mercado, as firmas garantem um maior nível de proteção aos seus acionistas minoritários, o que deve levar a um aumento dos preços das ações e, conseqüentemente, da capacidade de financiamento dessas firmas via mercado de capitais. Utilizando uma amostra de 46 Ofertas Públicas Iniciais de Ações de empresas privadas ocorridas na BOVESPA de 1994 a 2006, encontramos evidência de que empresas que optam pelo Novo Mercado, em média, vendem uma fração maior de seu capital (9,52% a mais) do que as empresas que optam por outros segmentos da BOVESPA. Nosso estudo também mostra um benefício do Novo Mercado ao qual não se tem dado tanta atenção. O aumento do preço facilita a venda de parte das ações existentes dos acionistas controladores, possibilitando uma diversificação de riqueza a custos mais baixos. O Novo Mercado parece ser tão importante para a capacidade de financiamento das empresas como para os ganhos de diversificação dos controladores.
For the last 10 years, stock exchanges from several countries have been searching for alliances or implementing new corporate governance rules in order to protect minority shareholders. The Novo Mercado (New Market) was created by the Brazilian stock exchange, BOVESPA, in this context, inspired by the German Neuer Markt. By adhering to Novo Mercado rules, firms guarantee a higher level of minority shareholder protection, which should lead to an increase in stock prices and, as a consequence, on firm´s financing capacity through capital markets. Using a sample of 46 Initial Public Stock Offerings at BOVESPA from 1994 until 2006, we find that companies that list their shares at Novo Mercado sell, on average, a bigger fraction of their capital (9.52% more) when compared to those that list at other segments in BOVESPA. Our study also shows a benefit of Novo Mercado that has not being much discussed. Higher stock prices make it less costly for controlling stockholders to diversify their wealth. The Novo Mercado seems to be as relevant for financing companies as for diversifying shareholders´ portfolios.

This thesis examined the relationships between corporation patent assets and four patent strategies - patent infringement lawsuit, patent unilateral licensing, patent cross license and patent purchase - in the North America region. Utilizing 4-digit IPC code of the patent is to extract the core technology areas of the smartphone firm. The comparison of the patent counts with average patent citations in the both smartphone firms’ core technology fields can determine which smartphone firm has competitive advantage in these core technology areas. The results showed that smartphone firms with abundant patent asset in quantity and quality usually take patent infringement lawsuit strategy to block rivals outside the market and to obtain more market share. On the contrary, smartphone firms with scarce patent asset usually need to acquire external patents for the purpose of protecting their products. Patent unilateral licensing strategy, in the case of smartphone firms with huge R&D investments, plays a significant role in activating intangible intellectual asset, since smartphone firms can earn loyalty via unilateral patent license activity. On the other hand, in cases where one of any two smartphone firms possesses predominant patents, whatever in quantity or quality, in the other’s core technology fields, the thesis reveals empirical outcome that it would take patent cross license strategy so as to obtain a win-win situation.

According to the survey, for the time being these enterprises obtain needed capital mainly from government or guaranteed by the Small and Medium Enterprise Credit Guarantee Fund of Taiwan. They can hardly make it through project finance or syndication loan. As a result, these knowledge-intensive enterprises are unable to take advantage of their Intellectual Property Right to acquire the loan to reinvest and thrive and go to international market. Based on the analysis of the theory of intangible assets value and related evaluation theory, this paper combines the development status of foreign intellectual property rights financing business, and illustrates the research framework of the scope of intellectual property rights and the value evaluation of intellectual property rights. Firstly, this paper analyzes the background and significance of the research on the value of intellectual property financing, and introduces the status quo of foreign related research.Secondly, it expounds the relevant theories of intellectual property financing research; then, analyzes the special value of the value evaluation of intellectual property rights financing; Finally, in order to realize the purpose of intellectual property financing, this paper proposes and expounds the foreign value realization system for intellectual property rights financing, and hopes to provide positive reference for China's intellectual property rights financing business.
