  • The Politics of Privatization and Restructuring in Germany
    4^ ^ >v •> Dii.'^.^/ HD28 .M414 The Politics of Privatization and Restructuring in Germany Lufthansa and Deutsche Teleliom J. Nicholas Ziegler Revised October 1997 WP# 3880 Sloan School of Management Massachusetts Institute of Technology MIT, E52-581 Cambridge, MA 02142-1347 tel. 617-253-3698 fax 617-253-2660 [email protected] The privatization of public service companies offers an excellent case for assessing pressures for institutional convergence versus the staying power of distinctive national economic institutions in the advanced industrial countries. This paper examines the privatization of Lufthansa and Deutsche Telekom in order to see whether changes in enterprise ownership reflect a process of convergence in the rules of coiporate governance. While the outward form of privatization in Germany looks quite similar to privatization in Britain and the United States, these two cases show little evidence that the change in ownership is driving any formal changes in corporate governance. If anything, German financial institutions and trade unions continue to exercise distinctive roles that rest on their historical positions in the German economy.

  • Allianz: Frontrunner on Climate Change in Danger of Losing Ground
    Allianz: Frontrunner on Climate Change in Danger of Losing Ground Briefing Paper by Urgewald and the Unfriend Coal Coalition August 2, 2017 Introduction Since 2015, Allianz has been rightfully praised for its divestment from coal. The company must now also take the next logical steps: 1. The company must cease to offer insurance services to coal companies from which it has divested share and bond holdings. 2. Recent research on financial investments shows that the Allianz investment portfolio still contains vast amounts of shares and bonds from major coal companies such as India’s NTPC or the Polish energy utilities PGE, Energa and Enea. This is in line with the Allianz divestment decision because the decision only pertains to investments the company makes on its own account. To fully exclude coal investments from its portfolio, Allianz must extend its divestment decision to funds it manages on behalf of third parties. French insurance company AXA committed to doing just that at its 2017 Annual General shareholder meeting (AGM): Exclude insurance of coal companies covered by its divestment decision and extend the divestment to funds the company manages on behalf of third parties. 3. Alliance must also cut ties with companies that do not fall under the threshold of at least 30 percent share of coal but that have massive expansion plans for coal extraction or consumption. In 2015, Allianz made history with its announcement to exclude coal companies from its portfolio. The divestment decision applies to companies that generate a minimum of 30 percent of their revenue from the sale of coal and those that use coal for at least 30 percent of their electricity generation.

  • Managing Political Risk in Global Business: Beiersdorf 1914-1990
    Managing Political Risk in Global Business: Beiersdorf 1914-1990 Geoffrey Jones Christina Lubinski Working Paper 12-003 July 22, 2011 Copyright © 2011 by Geoffrey Jones and Christina Lubinski Working papers are in draft form. This working paper is distributed for purposes of comment and discussion only. It may not be reproduced without permission of the copyright holder. Copies of working papers are available from the author. Managing Political Risk in Global Business: Beiersdorf 1914-1990 Geoffrey Jones Christina Lubinski 1 Abstract This working paper examines corporate strategies of political risk management during the twentieth century. It focuses especially on Beiersdorf, a German-based pharmaceutical and skin care company. During World War 1 the expropriation of its brands and trademarks revealed its vulnerability to political risk. Following the advent of the Nazi regime in 1933, the largely Jewish owned and managed company, faced a uniquely challenging combination of home and host country political risk. The paper reviews the firm's responses to these adverse circumstances, challenging the prevailing literature which interprets so-called "cloaking" activities as one element of businesses’ cooperation with the Nazis. The paper departs from previous literature in assessing the outcomes of the company’s strategies after 1945. It examines the challenges and costs faced by the company in recovering the ownership of its brands. While the management of distance became much easier over the course of the twentieth century because of communications

    EAMR EUROPEAN ACCOUNTING AND MANAGEMENT REVIEW VOLUME 5, ISSUE 1, ARTICLE 2, 21-46, NOVEMBER 2018 Value Creation and Women on Boards Bettina C.K. Binder Hochschule Pforzheim Received September 8, 2018; accepted October 26, 2018. ABSTRACT Value creation is a major claim of most companies. Mahajan (2017) argues that “value and value creation are natural to and basic in human behaviour and endeavour”, nevertheless women are often marginalized and impeded in their advancement towards leadership positions, where they could shape and influence the process of value creation. The present article looks at the companies of EURO STOXX 50 index in the year 2015 and offers an overview of women representation on the boards of these 50 companies. The paper tries to establish whether the success of these companies can be related to the percentage of female members in supervisory positions. The findings reveal the existence of a weak correlation between Earning before Taxes (EBT) and the proportion of women on the boards of the EURO STOXX 50 companies. KEYWORDS Value creation, women on supervisory boards, key performance indicators, gender quota, earnings before taxes. Bettina C.K. Binder 1. Introduction Value creation is a major claim of most companies and when leafing through the annual reports of companies one encounters expressions such as “value to our shareholders”, “we provide value for our customers”, “we create value for our employees, shareholders, business partners, neighbours and the public”, etc. While it seems to be clear for whom value is created, the concept of “value” itself is subjected to various interpretations and is regarded in the literature as ambiguous (Lepak, Smith and Taylor, 2007; Marinova, Larimo and Nummela, 2017).
