Background and problem: In October 2010 the European Commission issued a Green Paper on Audit Policy in which they set out to draw lessons of the auditors’ role in the recent financial crisis. The European Commission considers the function of the audit to be a key contributor to investor confidence and suggests a number of controversial measures with the aim of ensuring financial stability in the

The analysis shows that underpricing exists on the European market during 1999-2010 and that PE backed firms usually experience a lower underpricing than non-PE backed companies. Maturity, earnings management and company size are variables explaining underpricing for PE firms. For non-PE backed IPOs, earnings management is the only statistically significant variable explaining the underpricing. In

Popular Abstract in Swedish Det är dans i parken ikväll: Om samverkan mellan näringsliv och akademi med forskningsparken som mäklande miljö och aktör Många anser att gapet mellan näringsliv och akademi behöver överbryggas. I olika sammanhang konstateras dock att det finns svårigheter att få till stånd täta relationer parterna emellan. Därför har en rad olika initiativ tagits för att underlätta läThe aim of this thesis is to examine interaction between the business community and academia, and consider the Science Park as a brokering environment and actor. The bulk of park-oriented research, like park-related practice, is based on network theory and thinking. Taking such an approach, it is natural to study the intensity and nature of the interactions of the involved parties – in this case,

Om Raoul Wallenberg och Oskar Schindler som hjältar i svensk, tysk, europeisk och amerikansk efterkrigstida bearbetning av andra världskriget och förintelsen.

In this paper I will engage in a dialogue with new materialism within feminist theory. I will do this though depression and the use of the type of antidepressants named SSRIs (selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors), often talked about under the commercial brand of Prozac, and through the work of Elizabeth Wilson. I have researched experiences of using antidepressants through in-depth interviews,

Several commercial UF-membranes are characterized by water contact angles. Two different methods of contact angle measurements, the sessile drop and the captive bubble methods, are compared. Differences in results between the two methods occur for the DDS GR 61 membrane; otherwise the methods give rather consistent results. The advancing and the receding contact angles are measured for the UF-memb

Parallellhandel är en laglig form av handel med varor mellan Europeiska unionens medlemsstater. Handeln betecknas som ''parallell'' eftersom den sker utanför och i de flesta fall parallellt med de distributionsnätverk som tillverkarna eller de ursprungliga leverantörerna har skapat för sina produkter i en medlemsstat, trots att det gäller produkter som i alla avseenden liknar de so

Researchers and practitioners have recognized the need for ‘transforming’ every policy of the company into a competitive advantage tool. Thus, both the pricing approach and the supply chain practices of the firm have emerged as an important determinant of success. In this study, however, we are not only interested in these two aspects, but also in a third one-namely cultural conflicts as an obstac

This paper presents an investigation of a Volvo Direct Injection Spark Ignition (DISI) engine, where the fuel distribution and the in-cylinder flow field have been mapped by the use of laser techniques in an engine with optical access. Along with the experimental work, CFD-modelling of flow and fuel distribution has been performed.Laser Induced Fluorescence (LIF) visualisation of the fuel distribu
