2. Family-owned SMEs: Role models of crisis management A case study of how the practice of crisis management has been performed by nine Swedish family-owned SMEs during the Covid-19 pandemic
Master-uppsats, Göteborgs universitet/Graduate SchoolSammanfattning : Despite SMEs accounting for 99,9% of all registered firms in Sweden and that non-listed family-owned firms outperform their counterparts during crises, previous studies have neglected the field, resulting in an undiscovered void. Quantitative studies performed in the area serve a purpose for discovering how family-owned SMEs financially distinguish from other firms, but unfortunately such studies miss the important variable: what do they actually do?
