Citations in the corpus

- Ownership concentration in privatized firms: The role of disclosure standards, auditor choice, and auditing infrastructure (2006, methodology): “We also find a negative and significant relation between the privatization method (PRIVATE) and ownership concentration, suggesting that private sales are more likely than share issued privatizations to result in higher concentrated ownership, again consistent with Boubakri et al. (2005).”
- Bank Specific, Business and Institutional Environment Determinants of Banks Nonperforming Loans: Evidence from MENA Countries (2010, background): “At the same time, Boubakri et al. (2005) show that foreign participation reduces the level of risk taking among banks from developing countries.”
- Government ownership and corporate governance: Evidence from the EU. (2012, unknown): “However, privatization studies such as Boubakri et al. (2005) and D’Souza et al. (2007) contradict the state’s role as an efficiently regulating owner by relating corporate governance and firm value improvements to government divestiture.”
