The Adaptive Objectives of State‐Owned Enterprises amid Economic and Political Shifts: Evidence from Brazilian Firms, 1973–1993

open access: yesJournal of Management Studies, EarlyView.
Abstract We theorize how state ownership reweights organizational objectives when political and market conditions shift. Using a mixed‐method, history‐to‐theory design, we examine 160 state‐owned and 132 private Brazilian firms from 1973 to 1993. We argue that two mechanisms – appointment politicization and constituency‐protection salience – alter ...

open access: yesJournal of Risk and Insurance, EarlyView.
Abstract In insurance markets, claim costs are highly variable, heavy‐tailed, and difficult to predict. At the same time, policyholder retention and lapse behavior (customer churn) are critical determinants of long‐term profitability and solvency. Most existing models in the literature treat claim costs and lapses as independent, overlooking potential ...
