  • The Case of GEC/Marconi
    The Effect of Corporate Restructuring on the Shareholders’ Value: The Case of GEC/Marconi Magdy Abdel-Kader1* and Vagia Mentzeniot2 1 Brunel Business School. Brunel University. Uxbridge. Middlesex UB8 3PH. UK * Corresponding author: Tel: +44 (0)1895 266739. Fax: +44 (0)1895 269775. Email: [email protected] 2 Finance Division, Piraeus Bank Group, Headquarters, Stadiou & Amerikis 4, Athens, 10557, Greece Abstract GEC/Marconi’s transformation from a diversified conglomerate to a focused telecommunications and information technology company was an eventful and rambling transmission that resulted in the deterioration of shareholders’ value. It represents one of the most dramatic falls from grace in British corporate history and one of the greatest corporate governance fiascos of all time. The study investigates the wealth effects of Marconi’s sell-offs and acquisitions on its shareholders’ value by calculating the abnormal returns on the announcement days of all the disposals/acquisition during 1996-2002. The results support the view that shareholders’ value increases when a company proceeds to corporate sell-offs to pursue a focus strategy. However, the authors conjecture that GEC/Marconi has destroyed shareholders’ value through these disposals/acquisitions because of several mistakes, such as being prone to heavy debt. © 2007 World Research Organization.

    An Introduction to the IP/PCT Model Implementation in IPME Keith Hendy Defence R&D Canada Technical Report DRDC Toronto TR 2010-040 March 2011 An Introduction to the IP/PCT Model Implementation in IPME Keith C. Hendy Defence R&D Canada Technical Report DRDC Toronto TR 2010-040 March 2011 Author Original signed by K. Hendy Keith Hendy Deputy Director General Approved by Original signed by D. Reding Dale Reding Director General, DRDC Toronto Approved for release by Original signed by J.V. Baranski Dr. Joseph V. Baranski Chair, Knowledge and Information Management Committee Chief Scientist © Her Majesty the Queen as represented by the Minister of National Defence, 2011 © Sa majesté la reine, représentée par le ministre de la Défense nationale, 2011 Abstract This document provides a description of the Information Processing (IP)/Perceptual Control Theory (PCT) model implemented in the Integrated Performance Modelling Environment (IPME) software by Micro Analysis and Design. The current document is an edited and reduced version of an earlier report. In the current document, an attempt has been made to improve readability through a reorganisation of the material and the elimination of content that is not central to understanding the function of the IP/PCT model within IPME. The essence of the IP model is that all factors that impact on human cognitive workload can be reduced to their effects on the amount of information to be processed and the amount of time available before the decision has to be actioned. From this position, it can be shown that if humans are limited at the rate at which they process information then operator workload, performance, and error production are all functions of the time pressure.

The political, social and economic background Telecommunications is a critical area for industrial and economic development: a telecommunication network is the nerve system of modern society. New telecommunications services will have profound effects on industrial activities, their geographical location, the efficiency and nature of services and on the level of employment. Telecommunications also fulfills a basic human need to talk to each other. Easing the current technological and economic restrictions on communications in Europe will have a major social impact.
