We show that restructuring affects R&D both through changes in size and through changes in the composition of business portfolios, and that these effects differ across industry segments. 1. Introduction Investment in research and development (R&D) is as an important source of long-term growth for industrial economies

governance database to test whether corporate governance matters for the performance of U.S. REITs. We document for a sample including governance ratings of more than 220 REITs that firm value is significantly related to firm-level governance for REITs with low payout ratios only. Repeating the analysis with the complete database that includes more than 5,000 companies, and a control sample of firms with high corporate real estate ratios, we find a strong and significantly positive relation between our

issuers on the French equity markets based on the IC (Intellectual Capital) information contained in the prospectus. The remainder of the paper is organized as follows: the next section discusses the related literature; Section 3 describes the sample, the related statistics and methodology. Section 4 presents empirical findings and section 5 concludes. 2. Theory and Background The evidence on the survival of IPO firms is not extensive and generally limited to the U.S. market. The first researches

shareholders. According to Rao and Lee-Sing (1996), most Canadian firms are owned by either one shareholder or by a small group of shareholders controlling, directly or indirectly, more than 50 percent of the company’s voting shares. Moreover, the size of Canadian firms is, on average, smaller. Agency problems between managers and shareholders are less of an issue in Canada. The Canadian corporate environment seems to offer firms more of the flexibility they need to engage in cross-border M&As and

MNEs. Our results suggest that the corporate tax rate (differential to other group members) indeed exerts a negative effect on the number of patents filed by a subsidiary. The effect is quantitatively large and robust against controlling for affiliate size. The findings prevail if we additionally account for royalty withholding taxes. Moreover, binding ‘Controlled Foreign Company’ rules tend to decrease the number of patent applications. JEL Code: H25, F23, H26, C33. Keywords: corporate taxation, multinational

The Birth of a Dividend Policy We completed a study examiningthe impact on stock prices of establishinga policy of paying cash dividends[3]. Duringthe period 1964-1980, all the firms in our sample either paid the first dividendin theircorporate histories resumed or dividend payments aftera hiatusof at leastten years.An advantage this of is have littleprior approach thatinvestorspresumably expectationof the initiationof dividend payments.
