Financial Crises And The Presence Of Foreign Banks, Adrian E. Tschoegl
Financial Crises And The Presence Of Foreign Banks, Adrian E. Tschoegl
Adrian E Tschoegl
Foreign banks have entered many transition and emerging economies in recent years, sometimes before economic and banking crises have developed, and often after. Today, in a number of countries foreign banks own as much as 90 per cent or more of the banking systems’ assets. The question then arises as to what the effect of the foreign presence is on crises. This chapter first discusses the motives, modes and regulation of foreign banks. In analyzing foreign entry, it is important to distinguish between classic or traditional foreign banks and the innovators, which in turn one can classify either as “bettors”, …

Foreign Banks In Bulgaria, 1875-2002, Adrian E. Tschoegl, Kenneth Koford
Adrian E Tschoegl
We apply the analogy from biology of ecological succession that follows natural disasters as a conceptual framework for the history of foreign banks in Bulgaria. We argue that the current predominance of foreign banks is unlikely to be permanent, even without government action. The argument should also apply to other countries that have incurred sever financial collapse. In the case of Bulgaria, foreign banks have entered several times—before World War I, after that war, and after the fall of Communism in the early 1990s. The same source countries and even some of the same banks that were present before World …

Law And Investment In China: The Legal And Business Environments After Wto Accession, Vai Lo, Xiaowen Tian
Xiaowen Tian
The Chinese market is appealing, but the Chinese legal system is very complicated. A basic understanding of Chinese law is absolutely crucial for companies investing in this fast-growing and potentially huge market. Since China is moving toward a socialist market economy and is increasingly integrated into the world market, some aspects of China's commercial law are different from, while others are moving into line with, those of mature market economies.
This book provides an introduction to the Chinese legal system, focusing on laws and regulations on foreign direct investment and highlights recent government policies and measures undertaken to intensify economics …

Urban India is witnessing a rapid revolution in its commercial retail spaces. These transforming commercial landscapes constitute a rich arena for qualitative research using, among others, observational methods. In this paper, we present observations about the changing urban retail scene of India. We provide emergent themes that we have already found in observations so far, and also reflect on the challenges of carrying out such observations in the Indian context.

Developing And Validating A Construct Of Entrepreneurial Intensity., J. Liao, Patrick Murphy, H. Welsch
Developing And Validating A Construct Of Entrepreneurial Intensity., J. Liao, Patrick Murphy, H. Welsch
Patrick J. Murphy
I n this article we define, validate, and propose a construct of entrepreneurial intensity, or the degree of entrepreneurship in firms. First, in defining the construct, we explore theoretical differences between entrepreneurial intensity and orientation in order to distinguish it. Second, we empirically validate a measure of entrepreneurial intensity using data based on a sample of 563 entrepreneurs. Third, we propose avenues for research on how entrepreneurial intensity distinguishes entrepreneurs and entrepreneurial action. Finally, we detail theoretical implications of using entrepreneurial intensity as an antecedent and outcome.

A Conceptual History Of Entrepreneurial Thought., Patrick J. Murphy, J. Liao, H. P. Welsch

We introduce a conceptual history of knowledge expansion in the entrepreneurship field based on a logical mechanism of conjecture and refutation. Our undertaking interprets and explains the emergence, rise, re-emergence, and decline of key problem situations and theories through prehistoric, economic, and multidisciplinary movements in entrepreneurial thought.
