Overview: Die vorliegende Arbeit beschäftigt sich konkret mit der Frage, ob die Kapitalmarktteilnehmer in der Lage sind, die Anreizwirkung von Managervergütung zu antizipieren. Des Weiteren wird untersucht, inwiefern sich die Komplexität der Vergütung auf die Erwartungen der Kapitalmarktteilnehmer und auf die Preise auswirkt. Ziel der Arbeit ist es, diese beiden Fragen experimentell zu überprüfen. Zunächst wird ein Überblick über Theorien der Informationsverarbeitung an Kapitalmärkten, der Praxis der Vergütung und über empirische Studien zum Zusammenhang von Vergütung und Unternehmenserfolg ge

Overview: Bei einer wohnwirtschaftlichen Portfoliobewertung ist eine qualifizierte Wertermittlung auf Einzelobjektebene insbesondere in einer frühen Transaktionsphase aus Zeit- und Kostengründen nicht machbar. Stefan Haas entwickelt eine Bewertungsmethodik, welche standardisiert einen Portfolio-Erwartungswert ermittelt und darüber hinaus eine quantitative Risikomessung ermöglicht. Trotz der Komplexität der immobilienspezifischen Sachverhalte ist es gelungen, ein Bewertungsmodell zu entwickeln, welches sowohl theoretisch fundiert ist, als auch nachvollziehbare Ergebnisse für die Praxis liefert.
