This study aims to examine how the sensitivity for macroeconomic announcements surprises changes for the exchange rate in terms of a crisis. Previous research has been biased for U.S announcements and their relation towards emerging market, which has shown that U.S announcements affect more than the domestic. It also suggests that business cycle and uncertainty affect and increase the reaction for
This thesis’ focus is upon accountability in a compacting governance context – the VSOPP-collaboration between the nonprofit organization Stadsmissionen and the public authority Region Skåne. Previous research has indicated that a collaborating governance context might either challenge traditional aspects of accountability or bring about non-traditional and horizontal aspects of accountability. Th
The current global trade scenario has a large infrastructural gap, which limits the possibilities for physical distribution of goods among different countries or continents. The ‘Belt and Road Initiative’ will be used to close this gap. Tetra Pak being global organisation would like to explore the possibilities of using rail transport in BRI. For this reason, they would like to evaluate the benefi
Regelverk på nationell och internationell nivå som syftar till att uppmuntra och underlätta internationella investeringar och handel möjliggör idag för multinationella företag att verka transnationellt genom användning av filialer och dotterbolag. När det kommer till företagsbeskattning har avsaknaden av ett globalt och universellt skattesystem för att reglera internationella skattefrågor dock möjDomestic and international regulations aiming to facilitate international trade and investment today enable multinational corporations (MNCs) to operate transnationally through the use of branches or subsidiary companies. Within the field of corporate taxation, the lack of a global and universal tax system regulating international tax matters however allows MNCs to exploit gaps and loopholes withi
This study explores the Chinese computational propaganda exploitation during the Covid-19 crisis. By demonstrating the intricacies of this case of computational propaganda utilization, this research attempts to answer an even larger question: How do authoritarian countries incorporate computational propaganda to their soft power strategies. To that end, first; a theoretical bridge was formed betwe
While carbon emissions hit an all-time high in 2019 and are expected to grow, it is important to explore strategies for reducing emissions and mitigating climate change. A potential focus for curbing emissions is the flying sector, since air travel is one of the most carbon-intensive activities an individual can engage in. Among air travelers, frequent flyers yield the highest potential for saving
Background: Climate change is becoming a more urgent issue, where global agreements and regulations are putting pressure on companies to calculate and disclose their greenhouse gas emissions to combat the problem. Other driving forces of carbon disclosure for companies include social, economic, and financial pressure, as well as firm specific internal factors. Carbon calculations within companies
The world continues to boil due to capital’s incapacity to resolve its climatic contradictions. Stratospheric Aerosol Injection (SAI), a technological process theorised to instantly reduce global temperatures, has piqued the interest of a now desperate ruling class. Given its worldwide impacts, enormous risks, and capitalist- imperialist reproductive capacities, it is crucial to engage with SAI wh
The biomedical market is experiencing rapid growth, driven by the increasing volume of health data and the need for advanced technologies to manage and analyze this information. At the same time, the industry is facing additional challenges such as the shortage of healthcare professionals and an aging population. Artificial intelligence (AI) has the potential to become essential in this industry,

Med fokus på PowerCell Group, en leverantör av vätgasdrivna bränsleceller, undersöker studien hur Scope 4-utsläpp kan integreras i hållbarhetsrapportering och vilka möjligheter och utmaningar detta innebär. Undvikna utsläpp refererar till de minskningThis thesis explores the concept of Scope 4 emissions, also known as avoided emissions, within corporate sustainability reporting. With a focus on PowerCell Group, a provider of hydrogen fuel cell solutions, this study investigates the integration of avoided emissions reporting, assessing both the potential benefits and the challenges associated with this practice. Avoided emissions refer to redu
Much work has established M&A capabilities and its impact on M&A performance, likewise, a great deal of research has investigated internationalization. However, little theoretical attention has been brought to the implications of M&A capabilities on firms formulating internationalization strategies. This study examines how M&A capabilities impact decision-making processes in strate
Issue of study: Knowledge management is recognised as an essential part of company strategy, with the potential to generate significant competitive advantage. The theoretical basis of knowledge management is well developed, however the practical implementation is not well adapted with regards to construction organisations. More research with a practical perspective regarding knowledge management
Purpose - A general purpose of this thesis can be defined as to examine and evaluate the possibilities to solve the problem with fluctuating demand on spare parts from the local sales subsidiaries in the three big markets in Europe. A secondary, more specific, purpose of this thesis is to investigate what the possibilities are to implement direct distribution of spare parts to these countri
Parental leave policies for fathers are introduced to promote father’s caregiving and gender equality in childcare. Even though the majority of father-friendly policy reforms were led by social democratic parties, a few conservative catch-all parties also proposed policies to promote father’s caregiving. How did conservative catch-all parties frame father’s caregiving when they propose policy refo
This thesis presents the development and evaluation of a virtual reality (VR) environment designed for integrated EEG, EMG, and joint movement data collection. The system combines immersive VR with biosignal acquisition technologies, including the Unicorn Hybrid Black EEG, the Myo Armband for electromyography and inertial sensing, and the Cyberglove for hand joint tracking.
