Strategische Erfolgsfaktoren für ein kosten-risiko-optimales Public Debt Management - Organisatorische und inhaltliche Parameter im internationalen Vergleich
(2013-06-07)
Aus den im Rahmen dieser Forschungsarbeit empirisch gewonnenen Erkenntnissen werden Gestaltungsempfehlungen für das Public Debt Management abgeleitet. Diese zeigen, dass ein wirtschaftliches Public Debt Management nicht ein ausschließlich kostenminimierendes (sparsames), sondern ein kosten-risiko-optimales Public Debt Management mit effektiven internen und externen Überwachungsinstrumenten und wirksamer externer Finanzkontrolle sein muss.

Changing market conditions and the Brexit - Challenges for the traditional and the shadow banking systems
(2018-10-22)
Following the financial crisis of 2008/2009, the framework conditions for the financial sector, especially for banks and insurance companies in the Euro and US regions, have changed significantly. Banks and insurance companies in the Euro zone and the US are facing increasing regulatory requirements such as the Dodd Frank Act in the US and Basel II and III in the Euro zone. In addition, the environment for American and European banks and insurance companies has increasingly changed over the last few years as a result ...

Factors influencing consumers’ gaze and purchase behavior for food products labeled with nutrition and health claims
(2019-11)
Short Summary:
The labeling of food products with a nutrition or a health claim is a widespread practice in the EU. These claims are short sentences on the front of food packages which highlight positive nutritional characteristics or beneficial health effects for the body. Research on nutrition and health claims shows a lack of consensus on whether these claims have a positive or a negative effect on consumers’ preferences and purchase behavior. Therefore, the research objective of this dissertation was to investigate ...

Determinants and Effects of Local Public Education Expenditures - an Empirical Approach
(2019-09-18)
There are many (international) debates on education and education expenditures from a political economic as well as from a scientific perspective. However, the role of German counties and local agents in Germany in general has not been analyzed from an economic perspective yet. This is the reason why my doctoral thesis investigates the role of German counties as the “forgotten” agent for the determinants and effects of local public school expenditures. This cumulative dissertation consists of three econometric papers ...

Voting on the threat of exclusion in a public goods experiment
(2019-04-01)
Ostracism is practiced by virtually all societies around the world as a means of enforcing cooperation. In this paper, we use a public goods experiment to study whether groups choose to implement an institution that allows for the exclusion of members. We distinguish between a costless exclusion institution and a costly exclusion institution that, if chosen, reduces the endowment of all players. We also provide a comparison with an exclusion institution that is exogenously imposed upon groups. A significant share of ...

The choice of institutions to solve cooperation problems: a survey of experimental research
(2019-11-01)
A growing experimental literature studies the endogenous choice of institutions to solve cooperation problems arising in prisoners’ dilemmas, public goods games, and common pool resource games. Participants in these experiments have the opportunity to influence the rules of the game before they play the game. In this paper, we review the experimental literature of the last 20 years on the choice of institutions and describe what has been learned about the quality and the determinants of institutional choice. Cooperative ...

"Währungsunion ohne Wirtschaftsunion"
(2019)
Im Mittelpunkt der vorliegenden Arbeit steht die wirtschaftspolitische Analyse der Konstruktion der Wirtschafts- und Währungsunion. Während die Geld- und Währungspolitik in Europa seit 1999 vollständig supranationalisiert ist, verbleiben zentrale Politikbereiche wie die Wirtschafts- und Finanzpolitik weiterhin in nationalstaatlicher Verantwortung. Die derzeitigen Probleme der EWWU – so die grundlegende Erkenntnis dieser Arbeit – sind v.a. darin begründet, dass die Währungsunion nicht durch eine adäquate Wirtschaftsunion ...

Analysis of the Market Potential of Syrian Organic Fruit and Vegetables for Exports to Germany
(2016-10-19)
Syria has been a major producer and exporter of fresh fruit and vegetables (FFV) in the Arabic region. Prior to 2011, Syrian FFV were mainly exported to the neighbouring countries, the Gulf States and Northern Africa as well as to Eastern European countries. Although the EU is potentially one of the most profitable markets of high quality FFV (such as organic ones) in the world, Syrian exports of FFV to Western European countries like Germany have been small. It could be a lucrative opportunity for Syrian growers and ...
