• W2510577100 abstract "Privatization became a major component of economic policy around the world sincethe mid-1980s despite the conflicting theoretical arguments and empirical evidencefor this policy. The inconclusive evidence, apart from reflecting genuine differencesamong countries and industries under investigation, is also the result ofmethodological and empirical problems this literature is beset with. This provides themotivation for this research project which intends to contribute to the literature byaddressing some of these problems and also by applying it to a particular set ofcountries, the successor states of the former Yugoslavia, that have been either notstudied at all or not studied as a group despite the fact that they share the same historyand the same economic, political and social background which are distinct from othertransition economies. As with the established empirical literature in the field, theresearch focuses on the impact of privatization on the performance of firms in thebroad context of the neoclassical theory and its extensions.The thesis aims at investigating the impact of privatization on companies’performance in Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia, Kosovo, Macedonia, Montenegro,Serbia and Slovenia, independent countries that emerged from the disintegration ofthe former Yugoslavia. In doing so, this thesis initially embarks on a critical review oftheoretical and empirical literature, identifying their theoretical predictions andassessing their empirical validity, highlighting a variety of methodological problemsfrom which the previous studies have suffered. The empirical investigation of thisthesis uses Stochastic Frontier Analysis to estimate the efficiency of companies withdifferent ownership structures. It also addressed the issue of missing data byemploying a multiple imputation procedure. In addition, policy evaluationeconometrics using matched difference-in-difference estimators is employed forestimating the causal relationship between ownership transformation and companies’performance. Special attention is paid to addressing the issue of selection bias whichis the main challenge in evaluating the effect of privatization.The empirical results suggest that privatization is associated with improvement incompanies’ performance in terms of technical efficiency and sales levels, while it isassociated with a significant drop in employment levels. Also, privatization isassociated with improvement in performance over time. The results suggest that thereis some heterogeneity across countries, industries and ownership types. In particular,they show that the average efficiency scores of companies in the successor states varysystematically across these countries with Slovenian companies being the mostefficient, followed by those in Croatia, Montenegro, Bosnia, Serbia and Macedonia i.e.,in some order of institutional and economic development in the region." @default.
