Den svenska aktiemarknaden har under senare år utvecklats till att innehålla fler aktiva aktörer, och värdet på aktier noterade på svenska marknadsplatser har ökat markant. I takt med en ökad aktivitet har vi även sett en ökning of- fentliga uppköpserbjudanden och därmed även sådana av fientligt slag. Fient- liga uppköpserbjudanden tar formen av ett offentligt uppköpserbjudande, men med avvikelsenIn recent years, the Swedish stock market has developed to include more ac- tive players, and the value of shares listed on Swedish marketplaces has in- creased significantly. Along with increased activity, we have also seen an in- crease in public takeover offers and thus also those of a hostile nature. Hostile takeover offers take the form of a public takeover offer, but with the exception that
The goal of this thesis is to answer the question: Will a special cash dividend announcement from a company on NASDAQ GS create abnormal returns? This thesis will therefore find and measure abnormal returns surrounding a special cash dividend announcement. This is done by performing an event study, following the market model, consisting of 96 announcements from companies listed on the Nasdaq GS. T
I den svenska kriminalpolitiska debatten har frågan om kriminella nätverk tagit stor plats. Det finns en utbredd oro i samhället över de kriminella nätverken och det finns en ständig press på staten att komma till rätta med problemen. I mars 2022 presenterade regeringen ett lagförslag om kronvittnessystem som en del av en lösning. Det finns en stark tystnadskultur bland medlemmar i de kriminellaGang related crimes are often one of the main topics in the Swedish political debates. There is a common concern within the society related to the criminal gangs and a pressure on the government to act. In March 2022, the government presented a bill where a “crown witness” system is being suggested as part of a solution to the problem. There is a strong “silence culture” between members in crimi
Sveriges befolkning blir allt mer mångkulturell, vilket framgår av att den utlandsfödda befolkningen utgjorde mer än 20% av Sveriges befolkning år 2024, enligt Statistikmyndigheten. Men samtidigt som tillströmningen av migranter fortsätter, förändras inte nödvändigtvis politik och normer i samma takt. I synnerhet finns det en skillnad mellan hur migranter kanske föredrar att använda sina namn och Sweden’s population is becoming increasingly multicultural as evident from the foreign population reaching over 20% as of 2024, according to the National Statistics Agency Statistikmyndigheten. Yet even as the influx of migrants continues, changes in policies and norms do not necessarily change at the same pace. In particular, there is a difference between how migrants might prefer to use their na
Den här uppsatsen undersöker sambandet mellan klimatförändringar, havsnivåhöjning och egenskapen att vara en stat (eng. statehood). Internationell rätt beträffande det juridiska subjektet stat utmanas och ifrågasätts på helt nya sätt i och med att tidigare fullkomligt otänkbara scenarier förefaller mer och mer sannolika, på grund av havsnivåhöjningar. Uppsatsens syfte är att undersöka om små ö-natThis thesis explores the relation between climate change-induced sea level rise and the concept of statehood. The law on statehood is challenged in unprecedented ways as previously unthinkable scenarios become increasingly plausible. The purpose of the thesis is to examine whether or not low-lying small island developing states will lose their statehood if they are completely submerged by the sea
The aim of this study is to understand whether globalization has any effects on modern democracy and if so to see whether it can be replaced by something else – something larger than democracy within the nation-state. The aim was also to find out whether a cosmopolitan democracy is possible among nation-states with the help of cosmopolitan theory. In order to receive this information the author ha
The genetic architecture of common traits, including the number, frequency, and effect sizes of inherited variants that contribute to individual risk, has been long debated. Genome-wide association studies have identified scores of common variants associated with type 2 diabetes, but in aggregate, these explain only a fraction of the heritability of this disease. Here, to test the hypothesis that
Evacuation is an important activity for reducing the number of casualties and amount of damage in disaster management. Evacuation planning is tackled as a spatial optimization problem. The decision-making process for evacuation involves high uncertainty, conflicting objectives, and spatial constraints. This study presents a Multi-Objective A
INTRODUCTION: The soluble urokinase-type plasminogen activator receptor (suPAR) has recently been associated with a decline in kidney function and incidence of chronic kidney disease in patients with cardiovascular disease undergoing cardiac catheterization, yet little is known whether suPAR is associated with deterioration of kidney function in the general population.METHODS: In the population-ba
Sixty-four patients with active distal ulcerative colitis participated in a multicentre, randomized, investigator-blind trial to compare the effect of budesonide enema, 2 mg/100 ml, with prednisolone disodium phosphate enema, 31.25 mg/100 ml. Budesonide is a new potent corticosteroid with a rapid first-pass elimination. The patients were treated for 4 weeks, and the efficacy of the drugs were eval
One of the major arguments made in the current boom in Haitian revolutionary studies connects today’s conditions of possibility for modern democracy and human rights to the abolition of slavery during the Haitian Revolution (1791–1804). During the last decade, however, this connection between the Haitian Revolutionary period and our own age has been questioned by an increasing number of scholars:
