Health is among the most basic needs of the people and driving force of social and economic development. The health nutrition & wellness industry is gradually becoming a global sunrise industry . However, the industry is faced many problems and challenges including weaknesses in the industry structure, fragmentations of supply chain, low

efficiency in resources allocation, and lacking in quality on personnel training. To achieve core competitiveness and value creation, it is important that the health nutrition & wellness industry must meet the needs of Chinese market and its customers with a customer centric perspective to design a firm’s organization strucrture and management processes. This thesis is based on an analysis of the competitive landscape faced by the nutrition & wellness industry as exemplified by By-Health.Ltd. The investigation begins with an analysis and synthsis of the common industry practices on sales & distribution channels for their underlying similarities and differences in product strategies, branding strategies, and agency models on incentive design and profit sharing mechanisms. Through an empirical survey, this thesis also investigate customer’s demand for nutritious and healthy products. The results through factor analysis reveal that such demands are driven by individual factor, product factor, enterprise factor and environmental factor. The study concludes with a proposed framework to link customer value through three innovative designs in sales and distribution: community marketing model, sharing marketing model and Internet factory marketing model.

Description本文选取当前在学界和业界关注度较高的“新三板”企业作为研究对象,从融资效率和融资偏好角度实证了新三板企业当前的运行状况,补充了资本结构和融资效率的研究文献。利用二元选择回归以及分位数回归方法,探究了内部融资、债务融资以及权益融资偏好的影响因素。本文发现:1)对于内部融资,企业资产负债率越低、经营能力越强、盈利能力越好、抵押品越少以及公司成长性高的企业更倾向于使用内部融资,资产负债率对内部融资的负面影响边际增大;2)对于债务融资,资产负债率越低、盈利能力越好、经营能力越强、抵押品越多、公司成长性高的企业更倾向于使用债务融资;3)对于权益融资,盈利能力较差、经营能力较弱的企业更倾向于使用权益融资,而资本结构以及公司成长性对权益融资没有影响。分位数回归也发现,盈利能力、现金状况、总资产周转率、资产流动性、非债务税盾、民营企业以及公司成长性等变量对权益融资的影响较为稳定,提示公司的特征变量对权益融资并没有明显的主导作用。在融资效率上,本文也发现:1)于2012年挂牌新三板的企业整体融资效率不高,DEA融资效率为有效的企业占比仅为10%左右;但融资效率在逐年持续改善,表现出一个较好的发展势头。并且,对于做市转让的企业来说,2014年由协议转让改为做市转让以后,融资相对有效的企业数量增长明显快于协议转让企业,表明采用做市转让的企业融资效率优于采用协议转让的企业。2)市场整体融资规模并未达到挂牌企业的需求,导致一半以上企业尚未达到最优的生产经营状态,仍需要资金来增加生产资料的投入,以扩大生产规模获取规模收益。对于做市转让的企业来说,在2014年由协议转让改为做市转让以后,规模报酬递增的企业数量占比下降更快,表明做市转让制度要比协议转让制度从融资效率角度更能满足新三板企业的融资需求。

Description当前各个城市都在努力推动“互联网+政务”的公共服务新模式,打造政府公共服务平台,提供“一站式”的服务资源,以民众需求为中心,解决民众信息查询、政府办事预约、政策咨询等公共活动的需要。可以看出,政务平台给民众的生活带来极大的便利,是当前各地政府响应中央建立“智慧城市”“数字中国”的重要举措。

本课题发现当前的政务平台逐步引入PPP模式,借助社会资源开发政务平台。但是,PPP模式是否有利于政务平台的建设,受到哪些因素的制约,如何更好地利用PPP模式进行开发工作,这些问题在现前的研究中没有得到很好地探索。带着这些问题,本课题对PPP模式在政务平台建设中的作用进行了深入剖析。主要研究内容如下:

在第一部分中,本课题政府公共服务和政务相关理论进行了全面整理,发现政务平台要想走出一条健康发展之路,需要借助社会资源进行市场化,而PPP模式符合当前政务平台建设的需要。本文对PPP模式在国内外电子政务的应用进行了分析,提出了本文的研究主题。

在第二部分中,本文对华东地区50座城市的政务平台进行了调研,对常见问题进行了整理,发现PPP模式已经广泛应用于政务平台建设中,且主要有四种模式,本文对50座城市的政务平台建设情况进行了数据采集,并进行了深入分析。

在第三部分中,结合调研现状和文献研究成果,提出了PPP模式影响政务平台建设的相关假设,并构建了计量模型。通过短面板分析验证假设,并进行了Robust分析,证实结论的普适性。

在第四部分中,本文分析了研究结果,认为政务平台采用PPP模式能够有效促进政务平台的建设水平,提高用户满意度;并且PPP模式与合作企业的估摸、信息的透明程度和平台的交互能力存在显著的交互作用,共同影响用户对政务平台的评价。政府引入PPP模式,充分对接可利用资源,并加强盈利控制,对当前政务平台的建设是具有积极意义的。

Description中国律师制度自“文化大革命”结束后恢复至今,已有近四十年。中国律师行业伴随着中国改革开放的进程,得到了飞速的发展,当然,同时也面临着诸多的问题。重要的问题之一便是,中国律师事务所采用“加盟制合伙人”模式和采用“权益制合伙人”模式之争。本文试图从回顾企业边界的三大理论出发,提出“加盟制合伙人”模式和 “权益制合伙人”模式与合伙人律师的业务专业化程度、业务复杂化程度以及大客户和律师事务所规模关系的四个假设,通过实证分析的方式,试图以企业边界三大理论解释前述四个假设中的关系,并以此期望对律师行业的发展有所启发。

This paper quantitatively analyses the relation between the return of private

seasoned equity offerings and variables of market and firm characteristics in China Ashare

market. A multiple-factor linear regression model is constructed to estimate this

relation and the result canhelp investors to determine the future return of private

placement stocks.

In this paper, I first review past theories about private placement stocks, including how

the large shareholder participation, the discount of private offerings, the firm

characteristics, and the investment on firm value will affect the return of private

offerings.

According to the past literature, I propose four main factors that may affect the

return of private placement. They are the large shareholders participation in private

placement; the discount that private placement could offer; the characteristics of the

companies that offer a private placement and the intrinsic value of such companies. I

adopt statistic and correlational analysis to test the impact of each factor. Then,

according to this single-factor analysis, I set up a multiple-factor linear regression model

on private seasoned equity offerings return in Chapter Four.

In the last two chapters, I apply this quantitative model to other fields. I use this

model to testify current financial products of private placement and develop investmen

strategies on stocks with private seasoned equity offerings in secondary market. My

quantitative strategy is useful according to the result of setback test.

Description政府引导基金自诞生至今,始终处于管理模式的摸索状态。本文试图从公司治理的角度分析不同利益方(政府、社会出资人以及管理人)之间的博弈关系以及其对引导基金投资效果的影响。政府引导基金的注册数量和规模在过去十几年中得到了快速显著的发展。从引导基金设立的政府行政层级来看,地县级政府设立基金是引导基金出资中的绝对主力。本文拟深入研究地县级政府引导基金的运作模式,尝试探索其治理结构与投资效果。 目前,引导基金的运作模式仍然处于摸索阶段,论文试图对引导基金若干个指标做出客观比较,分析政府参与度对资金投资效果的影响,希望对未来引导基金的设立模式选择提供有力的理论基础。为实现较好的研究效果,论文选择了某经济发达的地级市的样本进行了研究,该市的政府引导私募股权基金发展程度相对较高,市本级以及区县级均有较多的政府引导私募股权基金,该市范围政府引导私募股权基金可研究价值相对较高。在样本选择方面,论文将采样某市及所辖区县政府直接出资基金十六只,针对其参与设立的直投基金以及直接投资项目进行分析。同时,论文还总正反两个方面选择了两个经典案例进行详细剖析。 论文发现,市场化运作程度越低,引导基金所期望实现的目标效果相对不理想,投资效果越差。政府在决策中所占比重越高,形成的投资决策对于项目成长性判断的准确度越差,对地方经济社会发展的综合贡献越低。然而,纯粹的商业运作,无法实现引导基金所承担的社会使命。对不同的资金诉求导致的投资要求在不同的决策层级实现,通过政府或其代表出资方对管理方以协议约束的方式保证其投资行为而不再进行对单个项目进行价值判断,是有效实现引导诉求和专业判断兼顾的引导基金管理模式。 论文建议,在经济相对发达地区,政府引导基金应该积极采用市场化运作模式,在现有可选择的模式中,政府引导基金以LP身份且获取咨询委角色,从外部监察约束角度对基金进行投资引导的模式为最佳选择。

Description应收账款(Accounts Receivable)是企业在正常的经营过程中因销售商品、产品、提供劳务等业务,应向购买单位收取的款项,包括应由购买单位或接受劳务单位负担的税金、代购买方垫付的各种运杂费等。国内的工业制造业,由于产能过剩带来的产需不平衡、市场信誉危机带来的市场不规范以及历史供给关系等诸多问题的影响,形成了以买方市场为主的供需结构关系。企业为了提高资金周转效率、增大市场占有率,往往会选择以信用赊销为主的结算方式,造成应收账款激增。但是,应收账款的激增在提高企业账面利润、降低存货储备的同时,也无形中减少了企业的现金流量,造成企业真实盈利能力下降、偿还债务能力减弱、资金周转效率降低,加大企业经营风险。所以,如何有效管理应收账款,从而增加企业竞争力是每个企业发展过程中的重要课题。应收账款的管理不仅要在形成应收账款之后加大催收力度,形成多种多样、真实有效的回款方式,同时也要在合同签订、执行过程中加强风险管理力度。应收账款的信用风险管理已经成为现代企业管理中不可或缺的一部分。分析卧龙公司应收账款的成因与管理可以发现,赊销形成的应收账款占据极高比例,卧龙公司对于赊销管理缺乏有效的组织结构与保障体系,本研究从销售合同、客户特征属性、客户财务数据角度出发,研究合同条款、客户特征属性、客户财务数据与应收账款是否逾期的关系。研究发现,应收账款逾期的客户,每年的逾期原因都不一样,但是影响逾期的显性因素是很少的,这与电机行业作为传统制造业,受宏观经济周期影响相关,行业形势每年都面临较大的变化,但是另一方面,影响逾期的因素相对少意味着其实还是有办法找到主要原因的,只要可以提前预判出主要因素,并有针对性的采取预防措施,可以一定程度上缓解应收账款逾期的问题。从整体的逾期与否预测的逻辑回归模型看,无论使用单变量筛选的logistic回归模型,还是使用层次分析法确定的logistic回归模型,分类正确率都可以达到70%以上,使用本研究中提炼出来的变量,在历史数据中,模拟预测过程的效果很好,为解决应收账款逾期问题提供了有力的辅助工具,而且,层次分析法充分采纳了团队管理公司多年的经验,变量最后控制在15个以内,能实现与50多个变量类似的效果,甚至更佳,降价了模型维护的经济成本、实际使用的难度,也客观上给带领团队进行尝试提供了信心。本文研究成果可以辅助卧龙集团管理应收账款,为控制风险提供指导,具有一定的实践价值。
