Program Generation for Firms Simulations in Competitive Environments
نویسنده
چکیده
In a competitive environment, the results of a firm strongly depend on the behaviors of the other firms. Therefore, the valuation of a firm must take into account its competitors. We propose a methodology to automatically create a program to assess the potential of a firm given a particular model of the firms. The rules forecasting the future behavior of the firm are generated under the assumption of the strongest possible resistance of its competitors. These rules can be used to evaluate the future minimal performance of the firm.

متن کاملPolitical Risk, Political Capabilities and International Investment Strategy: Evidence from the Power Generation Industry
In this paper, I examine the effect of political risk on the international expansion strategies of firms in a single industry, electric power generation. I argue that due to differences in non-market capabilities, the impact of political risk will be unequal across firms, and that firms with stronger political risk-management skills will be more likely to enter higher political risk countries. ...
