   D-uppsats, Handelshögskolan i Stockholm/Institutionen för nationalekonomi

   Författare :Erica Froste Myrin; Sigrid Holmgren; [2023]
   Nyckelord :gender bias; sport; leadership; football; evaluation;

   Sammanfattning : In Swedish elite football, the skewed gender distribution between coaches is conspicuous, and this thesis aims to investigate one channel as to why there are so few female coaches in this environment. Previous research has found that students evaluate female teachers more critically than male teachers, even in components that they cannot control; might this be the case in Swedish elite football as well? We have conducted a framed field experiment on the teams in the highest football division for players 19 years or under in Sweden. LÄS MER

   Nyckelord :Private Equity; Venture Capital; Emerging Markets; Sub-Saharan Africa; Impact Investing;

   Sammanfattning : As the market is starting to see an increase in private capital investments in sub-Saharan Africa, questions have been raised as to what has changed from the perspective of investors when it comes to investing in a market that has traditionally been underfunded. Through a case study analysing the risks, challenges, and opportunities of investing in sub-Saharan Africa, we attempt to analyse the reasons for traditional investor hesitancy and better map the risk and reward landscape as it is seen today.

5. 19. Preventing a "derailment" of strategy: A single-case study on how green early-stage companies can drive a proactive sustainability strategy using MCS

   D-uppsats, Handelshögskolan i Stockholm/Institutionen för redovisning och finansiering

   Författare :Michaela Jungner; Johan Kajerdt; [2023]
   Nyckelord :MCS; proactive sustainability strategy; intrinsic motivation; formal controls; informal controls;

   Sammanfattning : This paper aims to fulfill two interrelated purposes by investigating (i) how green early-stage companies can use MCS to maintain a proactive sustainability strategy in a high-growth setting, and (ii) how green early-stage companies can design MCS to maintain employees' intrinsic motivation for sustainability. By applying the theoretical lens of the Object of Control framework and intrinsic motivation, the single-case study explores how sustainability-related MCS is employed to drive sustainability strategy and how controls can be designed to maintain employees' intrinsic motivation for sustainability.

7. 20. The Role of Language of Instruction: The Case of Morocco

   Författare :Emma Hamre; Yuki Kanayama; [2023]
   Nyckelord :Language of Instruction; Mother Tongue; Educational Attainment; Gender Gap; Intergenerational Transmission;

   Sammanfattning : This paper explores the differential and intergenerational effects of Morocco's 1983 language policy that changed the language of instruction for most subjects in grades 6 to 12 from French to Classical Arabic. Although the policy has faced ongoing criticism over four decades, the plausible heterogeneous effects of the policy on marginalized groups and its intergenerational impact have yet to be investigated in the literature.
