The relationship between the education level of successor's and the firm performance in German publicly listed family firms- an empirical analysis

The purpose of this thesis is to investigate how far the education level of the second or third generation of publicly traded German family firms affects the post-succession firm performance. By conducting a correlational and regression design, the aim is to examine how several variables influence the performance of family firms. Performance measures, for example ROA and Tobin’s q and variables, like Education level and succession periods, examine analytically that a positive succession trend will occur. However, with the used model, only a less rigid model shows empirical evidence

The case for reshoring and nearshoring as a sustainability enhancer - perspectives from the textile industry

Sustainability awareness has increased worldwide, but implementation is faltering. The objective of the study is to find out if nearshoring is being used by textile companies to improve their sustainability performance. Moreover, the study aims at understanding the willingness of customers to pay more for nearshored products. To gain better insights four expert interviews were conducted and a questionnaire was filled out by 203 people. Findings resulting from the research indicate that nearshoring has no clear influence on sustainability performance. Furthermore, even customers who are aware of sustainability are not willing to spend significantly more for a sustainably produced T-shirt

Spätestens dann, wenn dieses Fremdkapital durch Banken aufgebracht werden soll, wird die Ratingproblematik auch und gerade bei Unternehmensnachfolgen deutlich sichtbar. Diese Problematik genauer zu analysieren und die Konsequenzen für die verschiedenen Beteiligten herauszuarbeiten ist Ziel der nachfolgenden Überlegungen und Ausführungen. --
