Revelation 17:18 CHRISTIAN-ALBRECHTS-UNIVERSITAT¨ ZU KIEL Abstract Faculty of Business, Economics and Social Sciences Department of Economics Doctor of Philosophy Essays on Interlocking Directorates and Speculative Dynamics by Ricardo Giglio This thesis is composed by four chapters which can be classified in two broad topics. The first and second chapters deal with the properties of the networks created by interlock- ing directorates, while the third and fourth chapters with the so-called Efficient Market Hypothesis. Connecting these two topics is the notion of a stylized fact (also called a universal property) which is not accounted for by the currently stablished theory. The first chapter shows that the existence of a very well connected dominant community is not explained by the traditional preferential attachment models. In addition, it is also shown that the patterns of accumulation of board positions by single individuals observed in empirical data cannot be explained by a simple random binomial procedure.

It is estimated that there are 10 million vendors in the country.
