Intangible assets and the underpricing of industrial company initial public offerings (2006)
This study analyses 262 industrial company initial public offerings (IPOs) in Australia from 1994 to 1999. It finds that the identification and valuation of brand name, trademark, patent and...
Bissoondoyal-Bheenick, E, Brooks, R, Yip, A
The paper compares two alternative techniques for the modelling of the determinants of sovereign ratings, specifically, ordered probit and case-based reasoning. Despite the differences in approach...
The initial impact of a matched savings program: The saver plus progam (2006)
Russell, R, Brooks, R, Nair, A, Fredline, E
A major emphasis in policy focus in recent years has been to promote greater levels of saving and financial inclusion in Australia. A number of studies have identified that low-income households and...
Funding the non-profit welfare sector: explaining changing funding sources 1960-1999 (2006)
Berman, G., Brooks, R., Murphy, J.
The non-profit welfare sector in Australia is dominated by several large organisations which are predominantly older, faith-based, welfare agencies. The success of these agencies is in part due to...
