This study aims to investigate the timescale effects of the corporate governance measure on predicting financial distress of corporations. A new corporate governance measure is adopted in the logistic regression model. Historical data of the companies listed on the Taiwan Stock Exchange Corporation (TSEC) were used in the empirical analysis. The analysis was based on three different prediction horizons comprising one-, two- and three-year horizons. The results confirmed that the accuracy of the logistic regression model for predicting corporate financial distress can be improved by incorporating the corporate governance measure. Moreover, the improvements of the correct rate for classification by incorporating the corporate governance measure increased as the prediction horizon was raised. The improvements of the correct rate for classification by incorporating the corporate governance measure are 2.9%, 4.4% and 5.8% for "Year 1", "Year 2" and "Year 3" models respectively.

Nonprofit organizations are sensitive to external disasters due to their high reliance on external funds and volunteers. In this study, I investigate how disasters affect the financial health of nonprofits and what factors make them more vulnerable within the context of disaster. The sample in this study includes nonprofits directly and indirectly affected by Hurricane Sandy. Using a logistic regression model, I explore if the disaster contributed to the likelihood of a nonprofit experiencing financial distress. Disaster, as an external shock, increases risks of nonprofits experiencing financial distress, especially for smaller nonprofits and nonprofits not relying on commercial revenue.

A logistic regression model is has also become a popular model because of its ability to predict, classify and draw relationships between a dichotomous dependent variable and dependent variables. On the other hand, the R programming language has become a popular language for building and implementing predictive analytics models. In this paper, we apply a logistic regression model in the R environment in order to examine whether daily trading volume at the Botswana Stock Exchange influence daily stock market movement. Specifically, we use a logistic regression model to find the relationship between daily stock movement and the trading volumes experienced in the recent five previous trading days. Our results show that only the trading volume for the third previous day influence current stock market index movement. Overall, trading volumes of the past five days were found not have an impact on today’s stock market movement. The results can be used as a basis for building a predictive model that utilizes trading as a predictor of stock market movement.

The main objective of this research is to examine the determinants which can push the auditors to reveal the weaknesses of the internal control system in companies listed on the Stock Exchange Securities of Tunisia. We are particularly interested in determinants related to corporate governance, ownership structure and some company characteristics. The conceptual framework referred to this work is the agency theory. We concluded from the results of the logistic regression model that the probability of disclosure of internal control weaknesses was not significantly associated with corporate governance and ownership structure. However, some other company characteristics, e.g. the size are strongly related with probability of firms disclosing internal control weaknesses.

Establishment of an effective early warning system can make the company operators make relevant decisions as soon as possible when finding the crisis, improve the operating results and financial condition of enterprise, and can also make investors avoid or reduce investment losses. This paper applies the partial least-squares logistic regression model for the analysis on early warning of enterprise financial distress in consideration of quite sensitive characteristics of common logistic model for the multicollinearity. The data of real estate industry listed companies in China are used to compare and analyze the early warning of financial distress by using the logistic model and the partial least-squares logistic model, respectively. The study results show that compared with the common logistic regression model, the applicability of partial least-squares logistic model is stronger due to its eliminating multicollinearity problem among various early warning indicators.

Financial distress adalah merupakan suatu periode dimana perusahaan mengalami gangguan keuangan yang terjadi sebelum perusahaan mengalami kebangkrutan. Analisis terhadap financial distress sangat perlu dilakukan sejak awal untuk mengantisipasi bangkrutnya perusahaan. Perlu dikembangkan suatu model yang menggambarkan prediksi kebangkrutan suatu perusahaan melalui analisis financial distress sebuah perusahaan. Dengan mengetahui penyebab financial distress perusahaan akan lebih bersikap lebih hati-hati dalam pengambilan keputusan keuangan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis apakah-apakah faktor-faktor likuidity, financial leverage, asset utilization dan profitability dapat memprediksi financial distress perusahaan. Populasi dalam penelitian ini adalah seluruh perusahaan manufaktur yang terdaftar di Bursa Efek Indonesia. Metode pengambilan sampel dilakukan dengan metode purposive sampling dengan beberapa kriteria yang ditetapkan.Model yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah model regressi logistic yang bertujuan untuk menguji probabilitas terjadinya variabel terikat financial distress dapat diprediksi dengan variabel bebasnya yaitu likuidity, financial leverage, asset utilization dan profitabilility. Persamaan model yang dikembangkan dalam penelitian ini adalah :Y = ( FD/1-FD ) = β0 + β1X1+β2X2+β3X3+β4X4Populasi dalam penelitian ini adalah seluruh perusahaan manufaktur yang terdaftar di Bursa Efek Indonesia berjumlah 136 perusahaan. Dengan criteria tertentu terpilih 50 perusahaan yang digunakan sebagai sampel. Periode penelitian tahun 2010 sd 2012.Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa secara simultan likuidity, financial leverage, asset utilization, profitability dapat memprediksi kondisi financial distress perusahaan. Namun secara parsial hanya variabel asset utilization dan profitability yang mampu memprediksi kondisi kebangkrutan perusahaan.

<p>This study aims to analyze the balancing model of agency theory in the effect of debt policy and dividend policy to managerial ownership in manufacture sector companies, which are listed in Indonesia Stock Exchange. Companies in Indonesia tend to have concentrated ownership structure. This condition is contradictory to the previous studies which mostly done in the widely ownership-dispersed countries. Balancing model argues that there is a trade-off between each monitoring and controlling mechanism, i.e. the effect of debt policy to managerial ownership and dividend policy to managerial ownership. This study uses a quantitative approach with fixed effect logistic regression model to analyze the data. Total sample of this study is 1,060 observations of 106 listed Indonesian manufacture firms during the period of 2004-2014. This study found debt policy to be a significant and negative determinant of the level of managerial ownership, as predicted by balancing model of agency theory. This study also found dividend policy has an insignificant positive effect to the level of managerial ownership, which rejected the balancing model of agency theory in the effect of dividend policy to managerial ownership.</p><p>Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menguji model keseimbangan teori keagenan pada pengaruh kebijakan utang dan kebijakan dividen terhadap kepemilikan manajerial dalam perusahaan sektor manufaktur yang terdaftar di Bursa Efek Indonesia. Struktur kepemilikan dalam perusahaan-perusahaan di Indonesia cenderung terkonsentrasi. Kondisi ini berbeda dengan penelitian terdahulu yang banyak dilakukan di negara yang struktur kepemilikannya cenderung tersebar. Model keseimbangan menyatakan bahwa terdapat <em>trade-off</em> antar suatu mekanisme pengawasan dan pengendalian dengan mekanisme lainnya, yaitu pengaruh kebijakan utang terhadap kepemilikan manajerial dan kebijakan dividen terhadap kepemilikan manajerial. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kuantitatif dengan <em>fixed effect logistic regression model</em> untuk menganalisis data. Jumlah sampel yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah 1.060 observasi dari 106 perusahaan sektor manufaktur di Indonesia selama periode 2004-2014. Penelitian ini menemukan bahwa kebijakan utang berpengaruh negatif signifikan terhadap tingkat kepemilikan manajerial, seperti yang diprediksi oleh model keseimbangan teori keagenan. Penelitian ini juga menemukan bahwa kebijakan dividen memiliki pengaruh positif tidak signifikan terhadap tingkat kepemilikan manajerial, yang mana menolak model keseimbangan teori keagenan dalam pengaruh kebijakan dividen terhadap kepemilikan manajerial.</p>
