Corporate Capital Investment: A Behavioural Approach

This book studies the impact of corporate planning and implementation procedures on the level of corporate capital investment. It stands among the few studies within the behavioral economics tradition that employ direct examination of corporate decision processes to address variables of central concern in conventional economics. In addition, by using a combination of qualitative data from interviews and corporate documents along with econometric analysis of corporate plans and actual outcomes, the study makes a substantial methodological advance. Along with the methodological advance comes a new and different conception of the determinants of corporate capital investment. The findings of this study have implications for research and practice in economics, corporate strategy, and public policy. As such, Corporate Capital Investment will be of interest to scholars and practitioners of all disciplines who are seriously concerned with corporate capital investment.Bromiley, Philip is the author of 'Corporate Capital Investment: A Behavioural Approach', published 1986 under ISBN 9780521301275 and ISBN 0521301270.
