I have just received my copy of "The European Corporation: Ownership and Control after 25 Years of Corporate Governance Reforms". The book studies changes in corporate ownership and control from the 1990s to 2018/19.
The book, which is edited by Evgeni Peev and Klaus Gugler and published by Cambridge University Press & Assessment, covers a number of countries. These include Germany, Italy, Sweden, and the UK. The book benefits from contributions by Johan Eklund, Rondi Laura, and Alexander Wagner among others. I am the author of the chapter on the UK.
Ultimately, the book attempts to answer the important question as to whether national corporate governance systems have converged or not since the 1990s. More information about the book can be found here.
The Impact of CEO Political Ideology on Labour Cost Reductions and Payout Decisions During the COVID-19 Pandemic
How did CEOs of S&P500 firms navigate the challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic? Did they prioritize shareholders by maintaining dividends, or did they focus on protecting jobs? In a recent study conducted with my co-authors Ali Bayat , Panagiotis Koutroumpis and Xingjie Wei , we find that the answer to this question depends on a CEO's political orientation. The study was published in the Journal of Corporate Finance where it is available for free via open access . A brief podcast discussing the study is available below.
