| Abstract: | This paper investigates the importance of interorganizational relations for stock repurchases made on the Stockholm Stock Exchange between 2000 and 2003. Based on theories of social influence, the main contention made is that stock repurchases are associated not only with specific economic characteristic of the repurchasing firms but also with social influence through board unions. The study is based on parametric survival analyses, which was performed on all firms listed on the Stockholm Stock Exchange in at least January and June in one of the examined years. |
