    DOES CORPORATE GOVERNANCE MATTER IN THE MARKET RESPONSE TO MERGER ANNOUNCEMENTS? Evidence from the U.S. and Germany Paul Lowengrub,a Torsten Luedecke,b and Michael Melvinc April 2004 ________________________________________________________________________ German executives can make misleading statements regarding merger activities while U.S. executives must either state “no comment” or provide a truthful statement. Do these differences in corporate governance standards cause differences in the market response to merger announcements? A sample of German and U.S. firms that announced acquisition plans between 1995 and 1999 suggests that for smaller firms, merger news has no significant impact on cumulative abnormal returns for German firms but a significant positive impact for U.S. firms. Large German firms, however, have similar experiences to large U.S. firms, as do German firms listed on a U.S. stock exchange, which require greater disclosure requirements. Aside from the smaller-firm effect, the evidence is consistent with no price-relevant differences arising from the differences in corporate governance rules.

Evidence from the U.S. and Germany I. INTRODUCTION This paper addresses the following question: Does the market response to a merger announcement depend upon the regulations applying to corporate disclosure? Cross-country differences in securities laws and enforcement result in countries where firm executives must answer public questions about merger talks truthfully or else offer “no comment” while in other countries it is possible to make statements that the public may view as misleading.

  • Process, Not Structure: an Organizational Behavior
    SHARPE - JCI.DOC (DO NOT DELETE) 3/28/2012 8:12 PM ARTICLES PROCESS OVER STRUCTURE: AN ORGANIZATIONAL BEHAVIOR APPROACH TO IMPROVING CORPORATE BOARDS NICOLA FAITH SHARPE* ABSTRACT History has shown that the scholarly and regulatory focus on board composition and structure is a dangerously incomplete solution to the problems that have caused recent corporate failures. The media and corporate scholars have assigned much of the blame for the 2008 financial crisis and the Enron-era corporate scandals to corporate boards. The conventional diagnosis of these ills is that boards were largely at fault because they failed to effectively monitor corporate officers. Unfortunately the conventional diagnosis of the problem is incomplete and the policy prescriptions flowing from this faulty diagnosis are unlikely to address the very real problems that continue to plague corporate governance. * Associate Professor of Law and Richard W. and Marie L.

  • Fraud and the Failure of Oversight at Adelphia Communications Corporation and Tyco International Ltd
    Norwegian School of Economics and Business Administration Bergen June 2008 Master Thesis in the area of Business Analysis and Performance Management Greed at the Top: Fraud and the Failure of Oversight at Adelphia Communications Corporation and Tyco International Ltd By Therese Thoresen and Anita Rakstad Jakobsen Supervisor: Iris Stuart This thesis was written as a part of the masterprogram at NHH. Neither the institution, the advisor, nor the sensors are - through the approval of this thesis - responsible for neither the theories and methods used, nor results and conclusions drawn in this work. PREFACE This paper is a part of our “masterstudiet” on the Norwegian School of Economics and Business Administration. In the paper we examine the concept of fraud in relation to two contemporary business scandals. We focus on the scandals in Adelphia and Tyco to explore the concept of fraud. Accounting scandals like these have received major publicity in recent years. Because fraud persists as a threat to modern businesses it is important to study particular cases and explore how futures scandals may be prevented. We found this theme very interesting, and we chose to write our master thesis on these two major scandals. As we both start our careers in the same big audit firm, we chose to look at fraud from the auditor’s perspective. Many people may believe that the auditor has all the responsibility in discovering business fraud, but is this really the case? We ask: “What is the responsibility of the auditor, and who else shares the responsibility?” In writing our paper we have gathered information using several different sources including books, articles and the Internet.
