TY - THES A1 - Kaiser, Florian T1 - Essays on Vertical Integration, Inventory Efficiency and Firm Performance N2 - In three studies, this dissertation contributes to the link between, on the one hand, how a firm’s supply chain is organized and, on the other, how good its financial and stock market performance is. Study I examines the relationship between the degree of vertical integration and financial performance. Study II links the degree of vertical integration, both theoretically and empirically, to long-term stock returns. Study III concentrates on the relationship between inventory efficiency and financial performance.
