Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This dissertation consists of three essays that examine differences between two different forms of going-private transactions: leveraged buyouts (LBOs) and management buyouts (MBOs). My main focus is to look at what separates MBOs and LBOs in terms of motivations and outcomes. I argue that the desire for decision-making control of the firm is what drives both the choice of an MBO over an LBO and many strategic decisions leading up to the transaction itself. The first essay surveys the literature and develops testable hypotheses that distinguish between MBOs and LBOs. Using control to differentiate between these two types of transactions is important because I wish to examine how decision-making control of the firm motivates each participant in the transaction. This leads to hypotheses about pre-buyout ownership structure, which affects the probability of choosing either an MBO or LBO. The second essay examines the determinants of LBOs and MBOs, and the effects of financing conditions and firm characteristics in a sample of U.S. firms that went private through LBOs and MBOs from 2000 to 2011 relative to the firms that were public during this period. I find significant differences between the LBO and MBO samples. Tighter lending conditions decrease the probability of an LBO but increase the probability of an MBO. In addition, while liquidity and growth opportunities are negatively correlated with the probability of going private for both LBOs and MBOs, the latter plays a stronger role for MBOs. The third essay analyzes differences in the determinants of the premiums paid when taking a firm private. Since the choice between an MBO and an LBO is one of self-selection, the empirical methodology must take this into account. I use a two-stage regression model to control for this selection bias. The first-stage probit model shows that ownership is the main determinant of the selection of the transaction type. The second-stage model shows that the determinants of MBO and LBO premiums are substantially different. The level of insider ownership has a large negative effect on MBO premiums, but no effect on LBO premiums. Overall, this dissertation contributes to the existing literature by examining heterogeneity among firms that go private. I test this heterogeneity and find significant differences between MBO and LBO firms, both in terms of the motivations for taking the firm private and the premiums paid in the transaction.

This book was released on 2002-10-16 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In The New European Private Law, Martijn W. Hesselink presents a revised and supplemented collection of essays written over the last five years on European private law. He argues that the creation of a common private law in Europe is not merely a matter of rediscovering the old ius commune or of neutrally establishing the present 'common core' which may be codified in a European Civil Code. Rather, it is a matter of making choices, some of which may be highly controversial. In this book he discusses some of the most important choices which will have to be made with regard to culture, principles, politics, models, rights, concepts and structure in the new European private law.
