Abstract:
This paper studies the effects of strategic debt service, asymmetric information and their interaction on the valuation of corporate securities and on corporate financing decisions. By introducing information asymmetry into a continuous-time setting, our model is able to integrate these two factors in a unified framework. Such a model allows for obtaining valuation results in a separating equilibrium. The basic results of this paper imply that the risk premium of debt could be partly contributed by information effect. This part of risk premium could be very significant for those good firms with a project which will produce much higher cash flows than what the market expects. We also find that a firm's financing decision depends on its primitives: firms are more apt to rely on equity if they have: (1) high growth potential, (2) riskier projects, (3) higher ratio of intangible assets to total assets and (4) lesser information asymmetry; firms would prefer debt, otherwise.

Abstract:
Business-to-business (B2B) companies devote significant resources to measure customer satisfaction but lack guidance on critical aspects of implementing satisfaction programs. Accordingly, executives ask: (1) What are the key strategic attributes driving B2B customer satisfaction? (2) Are the strategic attributes satisfaction balancing, satisfaction maintaining, or satisfaction enhancing based on the pattern of asymmetry? (3) Do the sign and magnitude of asymmetry vary across industry and customer subgroups? and (4) Is there a generalizable link between satisfaction and financial performance for B2B firms? Study 1 uses qualitative and secondary research to identify and validate eight strategic attributes pertinent to B2B companies: quality of product/service, pricing, safety, sales process, project management, corporate social responsibility, communication, and ongoing service and support. Study 2 examines industry-subgroup heterogeneity in the nature of asymmetry across industries, then links satisfaction with performance (i.e., sales). Study 3 finds customer-subgroup heterogeneity in the nature of asymmetry within the customer base of a B2B service provider, then links satisfaction with performance (i.e., dollar value of purchase).

Abstract:
The unprecedented ubiquity with which technological advancements, such as blockchain, the Internet of things (IoT), big data, machine learning, and artificial intelligence (AI), are impacting the world has forced large organizations to rethink their information technology roadmaps. Their decisions about how they invest in technology have become more important. It is against this backdrop that companies must decide how much to invest in their aging technologies versus these new potentially transformational ones. A decision is only as good as the information available to the decision-makers when they make it. This research project seeks to understand the effects that information asymmetry has on strategic information technology (IT) investment decisions within large complex organizations. The data collected for this study was gathered from six executives. The conceptual model was grounded in Akerlof’s (1978) seminal paper on information asymmetry. This study followed an Action Design Research (ADR) approach to formulate the problem and an elaborated Action Design Research (eADR) process model to create a solution. Results indicate that using the proposed solution will result in organizations making more informed strategic IT investment decisions.

Abstract:

Background: In resent years, the number of alliances has increased rapidly. Through collaborating with other firms, companies hope to gain certain benefits that they cannot reach on their own. However, the division of power in strategic alliances can be asymmetric, endangering the achievement of goals and objectives in the alliance for the less influential party.

Purpose: The purpose of this thesis is to identify success factors for companies with less influence and power than their collaboration partner/s in a strategic alliance.

Delimitation: This study concerns strategic alliances characterised by one party making an equity investment in the other party. The study is, furthermore, conducted from the perspective of the less influential party with relatively less power in the alliance.

Realisation: A case study was conducted based on six interviews and a questionnaire among employees at the mobile operator Swisscom Mobile. The company is involved in a strategic alliance with Vodafone and is part of the world leading Vodafone Group.

Results: The main findings of this thesis show that power asymmetry in an alliance originates from factors both on a dyadic level and on a network level and that these levels affect each other. Companies with a weaker power position must strive for counteracting the existing power asymmetry in order to secure their goals and objectives in the alliance. This study shows that this can be achieved through, for instance, partly having different goals than the partner/s, increasing the dependence of the partner/s on the own resources, absorbing information and know-how and learning from the partner/s, building trust in the relationship through personal contacts and safeguarding goals and objectives through a written contract and “economic hostage”.

Abstract:
Online equity crowdfunding is a way for entrepreneurs to raise capital that has exploded in popularity in recent years. Information asymmetry and poor investor protection are threats for the long-term legitimacy of equity crowdfunding. In this study we examine the quality of the financial information shared on the crowdfunding platforms, since it is what investors have to rely on when making investment decisions. We evaluate the financial information both quantitatively and qualitatively to assess the quality in terms of accuracy and adequacy. More specifically we examine the financial forecasts primarily with quantitative methods and valuation primarily with qualitative. In total, we examine 22 companies on the Swedish equity crowdfunding platform FundedByMe. The financial forecasts are compared with the outcome from the income statements to find out if they are systematically biased. The results show that the financial forecasts are systematically overestimated. Based on previous research we have suggested two explanations for the overestimations; either overconfidence bias and/or strategic behavior. We also find the information regarding assumptions and methods used in the valuation to be inadequate. We perceive that investors needs higher quality financial information in terms of accuracy and adequacy to make well-formed investment decisions. Our recommendations are therefore to regulate equity crowdfunding further and impose higher demands on information quality. Otherwise equity crowdfunding will possibly end up as a market of “lemons”.

Abstract:
Les alliances stratégiques connaissent depuis quelques décennies un fort essor tant en termes de pratiques managériales des entreprises qu’en termes de recherches académiques. Cet essor s’est accompagné de nombreuses controverses sur leurs issues (performances) et sur les facteurs les influençant. Par cette recherche, notre objectif est d’appréhender le phénomène des alliances stratégiques asymétriques en identifiant ses principales caractéristiques et les facteurs susceptibles d’influencer positivement ou négativement sa performance. Dans cette perspective, notre première phase de recherche a consisté en la réalisation d’un état de l’art sur les concepts des alliances stratégiques en général, des alliances asymétriques en particulier et de la performance. Sur cette base, nous avons pu établir huit hypothèses de recherche que nous avons ensuite testé en adoptant une démarche qualitative par étude de 10 cas d’alliances asymétriques. Notre application empirique a concerné les alliances stratégiques entre les PME françaises et les firmes multinationales opérant dans l’industrie aéronautique et a été conduite du point de vue des PME impliquées. L’analyse de nos hypothèses de recherche nous a permis d’obtenir trois résultats principaux : l’existence de liens forts entre les spécificités des partenaires et leurs motifs pour ces alliances; l’existence de liens négatifs importants entre certaines asymétries entre les partenaires (taille, culture organisationnelle et expériences d’alliances) et la performance relationnelle ; et l’existence de liens positifs importants entre la complémentarité des ressources des PME et des multinationales impliquées et leurs résultats quantitatifs (performance financière et apprentissage organisationnel). Nos résultats confortent certaines recherches antérieures sur les caractéristiques et la performance des alliances asymétriques. Ils peuvent aussi faire l’objet de recommandations pratiques aux dirigeants des PME impliquées dans ces relations
Strategic alliances in recent decades experienced a strong growth both in terms of firms management practices and in terms of academic research. This growth has been accompanied by many controversy concerning their outcomes (performance) and the factors influencing these outcomes. Through this research, our objective is to understand the phenomenon of asymmetric strategic alliances by identifying its main characteristics and factors that may positively or negatively influence its performance. In this perspective, our research first phase consisted of the realization of a state of the art on the concepts of strategic alliances in general, asymmetric alliances in particular and performance. On this basis, we established eight research hypotheses that we tested by adopting a qualitative approach by studying 10 cases of asymmetric alliances. Our empirical application concerned strategic alliances between French SMEs and multinational companies operating in the aviation industry and was conducted from the perspective of SMEs involved. Analysis of our research hypotheses allowed us to obtain three main results: the existence of strong links between partners specificities and their alliances motivation; the existence of significant negative links between between partners asymmetries in terms of (size, organizational culture and experiences) and relational performance; and the existence of significant positive relationship between SMEs and multinationals involved resources complementarity and their quantitative results (financial performance and organizational learning). Our results confirm some previous research concerning of asymmetric alliances characteristics and performance. They can also be objects of practical recommendations to managers of SMEs involved in these relationships

Abstract:
AbstractChina and Russia are jointly advancing their shared interests in the international arena and increasing their cooperation in the tech sector. Despite far-reaching plans, the asymmetry of cooperation in favour of China is increasingly at odds with Russia’s national goals in digital technology. Differences in resources and standpoints are also reflected in the implementation of digital surveillance. China’s surveillance system is sophisticated and extensive, whereas Russia’s is still largely inconsistent and emerging, as evidenced by the fact that there was virtually no control of the Internet in Russia until 2012. While advanced surveillance in authoritarian countries is worrying, technology in strategic sectors is also a key field of increasingly disconcerting great power competition. As a result of intensifying competition, the world is faced with the risk of technological decoupling, which would contribute to the further fragmentation of the international community and the deepening of existing rivalries.

Abstract:
An essential aspect of deepening the level of economic integration between European economies is the reduction of mutual economic disparities, which is especially emphasized by the formation of the supranational monetary authority of the Euro-zone member states. However, fixing the currency for the euro and losing monetary sovereignty in the circumstances of a structurally heterogeneous system meant that the same monetary policy provoked different repercussions for member states. This research aims to point out the differences in the exchange rate transmission mechanism between the representatives of two groups of Euro-zone member states: the core of the EZ (Germany, Finland, Belgium, and France) and the periphery of the EZ (Greece, Spain, Portugal, Ireland), in the 1999M1-2021M1 time horizon. Empirical findings are based on estimates of the VAR model, i.e. derived impulse response functions in the circumstances of shock transmission (nominal effective exchange rate) to inflation (consumer price index). The results of the research indicate the asymmetry of the exchange rate transmission mechanism in terms of a more pronounced and longer degree of exposure of peripheral economies to shocks of the nominal exchange rate compared to the representatives of the core of the Euro-zone. Empirical findings confirm the asymmetry of the exchange rate transmission mechanism as one of the indicators of the weakness of the Euro-zone, given the inflationary diversity and the consequent anomalies of the monetary union with heterogeneous membership.

Abstract:
Recently, we have proposed a framework for verification of agents' abilities in asynchronous multi-agent systems (MAS), together with an algorithm for automated reduction of models. The semantics was built on the modeling tradition of distributed systems. As we show here, this can sometimes lead to counterintuitive interpretation of formulas when reasoning about the outcome of strategies. First, the semantics disregards finite paths, and yields unnatural evaluation of strategies with deadlocks. Secondly, the semantic representations do not allow to capture the asymmetry between proactive agents and the recipients of their choices. We propose how to avoid the problems by a suitable extension of the representations and change of the execution semantics for asynchronous MAS. We also prove that the model reduction scheme still works in the modified framework.

Abstract:
According to estimates and analyses by the international community of economic analysts, the medical crisis generated by the Covid-19 pandemic will induce a major economic and financial crisis worldwide which, in conjunction with the current geopolitical situation, characterized by a high degree of uncertainty (e.g. strategic economic confrontation between the US and China, the position of force adopted by the Russian Federation), will affect production and supply chains, amplify the phenomenon of the adoption of trade policies of a protectionist nature, and, indirectly, will significantly affect national defense budgets. In this fluid geopolitical context, characterized by insecurity and systemic instability, a strategic rethink and recalibration of defence policies can be predicted in a new context, defined by the multipolar competition and the asymmetry of geopolitical geometry, the conflict between civilizational models (competition between democracy vs. autocratic/totalitarian political regimes), to the detriment of regional and international collective security arrangements. Changing government priorities generated by the pandemic crisis generated by Covid-19 may lead to a reduction in budgets for military endowment programs. Most governments allocate about 2% of GDP annually to the defence sector. Given the pandemic generated by Covid-19, there is a risk that some states will significantly reduce the budget allocated to the defence industry in order to increase the budgets for health systems, given the need to expand hospitals, as well as the purchase of medical equipment and services. In Romania, the topic of tools and opportunities that may be able to ensure the improvement of the effects and overcoming the economic crisis is currently being discussed through active economic measures, including in the field of the defence industry. In Romania, however, the path from debate to public policy and strategy assumed and applied is traditionally long and hard, requiring more pragmatism in addressing strategic economic issues.

Abstract:
We report on a novel microfluidic strategy for building monodisperse asymmetric vesicles with customized composition, size, and interfacial properties at high-throughput. The microfluidic device encompasses a triangular post region and two flow-focusing regions. The major steps involved in the vesicle building process include: (1) forming highly uniform water emulsion templates in the inner-leaflet lipid solution, (2) replacing the inner-leaflet lipid solution with the outer-leaflet lipid solution, (3) creating water-in-oil-in-water double emulsions, and (4) extracting the excess outer-leaflet lipid solution from the double emulsions. Bilayer membrane asymmetry and unilamellarity are confirmed using a fluorescence quenching assay and quantitative measurements of fluorescent intensities. This method addresses many of the deficiencies found in existing technologies, and yields asymmetries as high as 95%. The asymmetric vesicles built using this strategy hold the potential to serve as model systems to investigate fundamental problems in membrane biology.

Abstract:
In SI engines, VVA (Variable Valve Actuation) technology is mainly used for the reduction of pumping losses at part load. This paper presents the results of fluid dynamic analyses on a 4V engine about the effects of different VVA strategies, by comparing and discussing the results in terms of organized charge motions, turbulence levels, flame developments, NO and CO emissions. CFD simulations cover five load control cases: comparison is among conventional throttling, EIVC (Early Intake Valve Closure) with symmetric and asymmetric intake lifts, LIVC (Late Intake Valve Closure) and symmetrical Multi-Lift strategies. 3D U-RANS simulations are performed, adopting the Extended Coherent Flamelet Model (ECFM) for the description of premixed SI combustion. The 3D model is also coupled to a 1D engine model which provides inlet/outlet boundary conditions. Simulation results highlight the potential of asymmetric Early Intake Valve Closure (EIVC) strategy which allows reducing pumping losses and, at the same time, achieving good turbulence intensity and combustion speed, if compared to other load control strategies. Multi-Lift strategy resulted excellent in terms of burn duration, but pumping losses are practically the same as in the throttled engine.

Abstract:
Topicality of modeling information transparency is determined by the influence it has on the effectiveness of management decisions made by an economic entity in the context of uncertainty and information asymmetry. It has been found that information transparency is a poorly structured category which acts as a qualitative characteristic of information and at certain levels forms an additional spectrum of properties of the information that has been adequately perceived or processed. As a result of structuring knowledge about the factor environment, a fuzzy cognitive model of information transparency was constructed in the form of a weighted digraph. Structural analysis and scenario forecasting of optimal alternatives of the fuzzy cognitive model made it possible to evaluate the classes of factors, identify their limited relations, establish the centrality of the roles of information transparency and information and communication security in the system built and evaluate their importance when modeling the situation self-development. Information visibility, reliability and availability have been found to have the strongest impact on the system. Taking into account different initial weights of the key factors — information transparency and information and communication security — the study substantiates the strategic ways for economic entities to achieve their goals in the context of uncertainty and information asymmetry, which allows us to use this approach as a tool for strategic management in the information environment.

Abstract:
Research Objectives 1) Reviewing the rich economic literature on contracting and agricultural contracting; 2) Conducting a descriptive comparative study of actual contracting patterns in the U.S. and Israeli agricultural sectors; 3) Theoretical analysis of division of assets ownership, authority allocation and incentives in agricultural production contracts; 4) Theoretical analysis of strategic noncompetitive choice of agricultural production and marketing contracts, 5) Empirical studies of contracting in agricultural sectors of US and Israel, among them the broiler industry, the citrus industry and sugar beet sector. Background Recent decades have witnessed a world-wide increase in the use of agricultural contracts. In both the U.S. and Israel, contracts have become an integral part of production and marketing of many crops, fruits, vegetables and livestock commodities. The increased use of agricultural contracts raises a number of important economic policy questions regarding the optimal design of contracts and their determinants. Even though economists have made a substantial progress in understanding these issues, the theory of contracts and an empirical methodology to analyze contracts are still evolving. Moreover, there is an enormous need for empirical research of contractual relationships. Conclusions In both U.S. and Israel, contracts have become an integral part of production and marketing of many agricultural commodities. In the U.S. more than 40% of the value of agricultural production occurred under either marketing or production contracts. The use of agricultural contracts in Israel is also ubiquitous and reaches close to 60% of the value of agricultural production. In Israel we have found strategic considerations to play a dominant role in the choice of agricultural contracts and may lead to noncompetitive conduct and reduced welfare. In particular, the driving force, leading to consignment based contracts is the strategic effect. Moreover, an increase in the number of contractors will lead to changes in the terms of the contract, an increased competition and payment to farmers and economic surplus. We found that while large integrations lead to more efficient production, they also exploit local monopsonistic power. For the U.S, we have studied in more detail the choice of contract type and factors that affect contracts such as the level of informational asymmetry, the authority structure, and the available quality measurement technology. We have found that assets ownership and decision rights are complements of high-powered incentives. We have also found that the optimal allocation of decision rights, asset ownership and incentives is influenced by: variance of systemic and idiosyncratic shocks, importance (variance) of the parties’ private information, parameters of the production technology, the extent of competition in the upstream and downstream industries. Implications The primary implication of this project is that the use of agricultural production and marketing contracts is growing in both the US and Israeli agricultural sectors, while many important economic policy questions are still open and require further theoretical and empirical research. Moreover, actual contracts that are prevailing in various agricultural sectors seems to be less than optimal and, hence, additional efforts are required to transfer the huge academic know-how in this area to the practitioners. We also found evidence for exploitation of market powers by contactors in various agricultural sectors. This may call for government regulations in the anti-trust area. Another important implication of this project is that in addition to explicit contracts economic outcomes resulting from the interactions between growers and agricultural intermediaries depend on a number of other factors including allocation of decision and ownership rights and implicit contracting. We have developed models to study the interactions between explicit contracts, decision rights, ownership structure, and implicit contracts. These models have been applied to study contractual arrangements in California agriculture and the North American sugarbeet industry.

Abstract:
Wetland construction in tidally influenced embayments is a strategy for beneficial use of sediment dredged from nearby navigation channels. These projects have the potential to alter basin morphology, tidal hydrodynamics, and shoaling trends. This special report provides a broad review of the literature related to engineering-induced changes in tidal range, salinity, tidal prism, tidal asymmetry, and other known causes of shoaling. Each potential shoaling mechanism is then evaluated in the context of wetland placement to provide a foundation for future beneficial use research. Based on a compilation of worldwide examples, wetland placement may reduce tidal amplitude and enhance ebb current dominance, thus reducing shoaling rates in the channels. However, constructed wetlands could also reduce the embayment’s tidal prism and cause accelerated shoaling relative to the pre-engineered rate. Because constructed wetlands are often created in conjunction with navigation channel dredging, the system’s morphologic response to wetland construction is likely to be superimposed upon its response to channel deepening, and the net effect may vary depending on a variety of system-specific parameters. Planning for future wetland placements should include an evaluation of local hydrodynamic behavior considering these factors to predict site-specific response.
