The thesis is a long-term event study based on a deductive approach. The empiricial material, mostly secondary data, is analyzed using the buy-and-hold method as well as a multiple regression.

This thesis provides significant evidence of a connection
between BHAR and issuing companies relative to non-issuing companies. We also conclude that the variables recapitalization and the relative ! offer size show the highest level of significancy. (Less)
