Den här uppsatsen handlar om koreografens rätt till skydd för sina verk. Jag diskuterar tre rättsliga problem med detta skydd. Det första handlar om svårigheterna att dra gränsen mellan koreografens nya skapande i förhållande till tidigare verk. Nya koreografier bygger ofta på gamla dansmönster och steg. Svårigheter kan uppstå med att bestämma var det ena verket slutar och det andra börjar. Det anThis essay discusses the choreographer's right to protection of their works. I discuss three legal problems with this protection. The first is the difficulty to draw the line between choreographer's new building in relation to earlier works. New choreographies are often based on ancient dance patterns and steps. Difficulties may arise in deciding where one work ends and the other begins. T

The thesis analyses a risk arbitrage portfolio in Swedish equities over 2611 trading days (132 months), to evaluate the ability of a risk arbitrage strategy to generate excess returns, alpha, in the Swedish market. It is found that risk arbitrage generates a significant alpha of 120 basis points per month, in a linear model and assuming CAPM holds. In a contingent claims framework, aiming to corre

Geografiska ursprungsbeteckningar är ett rättsområde under stark utveckling och detta har resulterat i att den nuvarande lagstiftningen är dåligt anpassad till den situation som råder idag. Flertalet olika värden är sammankopplade med existensen av de geografiska ursprungsbeteckningarna och genom deras vitt skilda betydelser för WTO:s medlemmar så är det svårt att uppnå konsensus kring ämnet och hGeographical indications are a juridical area under high pressure of development and these circumstances have made the current WTO- regulation incompatible with the situation of today. The geographical indications represent a wide range of different values. These values have a numerous form and symbolize different aspects to all of WTO:s members. In this context it is understandable that a lot of

The cash flow volatility could be either value destroying or value creating. It is also meaningful to classify the firms by growth options when analysis the firm value. These results develop the prior study to a more specification condition. Managers should focus on real cash flow management and the effects of firm¡¯s earning management should also be measured by cash flow rather than accruals.

IThis study aims at proving the impact of firm-specific financial determinants on the likelihood of cross-border M&A and their impact on the relative size of transactions, both against the background of changing market conditions. In conclusion, we find our first hypothesis, that the strength of single firm-specific financial factors increases the likelihood of firm’s to undertake cross-border

The study investigates if the level of diversity in the board of directors of 54 Swedish Large Cap firms have any effect on company performance measured as return on assets and market-

PURPOSE: The main purpose of this thesis is to determine to what extent, if any, outsiders are able to obtain abnormal returns by mimicking the behaviour of insiders at the Swedish stock market prior to earnings announcement. By making separations this study will hopefully provide some advice when the abnormal returns are most likely to happen when outsiders mimic insiders. METHODOLOGY: This study

We identified that investors in Sweden are affected by inflation illusion. Investors also incorrectly accounting for debt capital gain error for the levered companies. We can also conclude that the Fed model proved to be a weak tool for forecasting future real returns and its modification only partially increase its quality. Finally we identified that earnings yield standalone is a much better mea

I denna uppsats har vi genom fallstudier på Procordia och OLW, undersökt hur studenters perception av företags arbetsgivarvarumärke påverkas av storleken på varumärkesportföljen. Detta har gjorts genom kvalitativa intervjuer med anställda på de olika företagen och specialister samt en kvantitativ undersökning bland studenter vid Lunds och Uppsala universitet. Då Procordia och OLW båda ägs av Orkla

In principal our empirical findings confirm the applicability of the Uppsala Model on SMEs. However we believe the Uppsala Model to be very general. This is the reason why it fails to explain some complexities in the real world. Simultaneously the model’s general approach is also its biggest strength. Since it focuses on explaining the fundamental elements of internationalizing firms it is possibl

This study aims to present different factors influencing growth comparing Innovative Gazelles and other average SMEs. In addition, this study will investigate relevance of factors fostering innovation in high-growing SMEs in a cross-country perspective in order to show how Innovative Gazelles differ from SMEs in general. The study applies qualitative approach of multi case study, which will be con

The purpose of this research is to investigate the value premium associated with extent of hedging in the U.S. airline industry during the period 2006 to 2010 and to study the results of hedging on accounting performance as a proxy for firm value. The multivariate approach has been taken to measure the firm value using Tobin's q and accounting performance variables. The results show that hedgi

Syfte: Studiens syfte är att verka kunskapshöjande kring de barriärer studenter upplever inför valet att starta ett företag. Dessa ställs mot tidigare forskning på området. Likheter och skillnader mellan dessa lyfts sedan fram, varpå förslag på åtgärder för att höja andelen entreprenöriella studenter föreslås. Metod: I enlighet med hermeneutikens skola har undersökningen utformats som en kvalitati

Previous empirical research has developed many theoretical frameworks to explain the motives behind risk management and provide evidence that hedging does add value to the firm. However, the effect of disclosure on firm value has often been researched separately and the effect of hedging disclosure on the hedging premium is still largely untested today. This provides us with an opportunity to brin

The thesis departures from concepts from conflict transformation and resolution literature and peace research in order to analyse the situation in the Northern Region of Ghana and establish the possibilities of work for the Commission on Human Rights and Administrative Justice in the Northern Region. Further, the Paris Principles are studied and the basis for work of national human rights institut
