The Impact Of Prior Performance On Leadership Appointment In A Merger Of Equals, David A. Hirsch
The Impact Of Prior Performance On Leadership Appointment In A Merger Of Equals, David A. Hirsch

The Use Of Financial Statements To Predict The Stock Market Effects Of Systemic Crises, Mohammad Yahia Almakrami
CGU Theses & Dissertations
The financial crisis of 2007-2009 had divesting effects around the globe. Many financial institutions and government officials failed to see the build up of problems predicting the crisis and hence failed to take actions to keep the crisis from breaking out.

A full investigation of such possibilities will require many different studies taking different approaches. This dissertation contributes to that collective effort by investigating the extent to which balance sheet …
