The paper proposes a methodology called OP-KNN, which builds a one hidden- layer feedforward neural network, using nearest neighbors neurons with extremely small com- putational time. The main strategy is to select the most relevant variables beforehand, then to build the model using KNN...

The question of leasing credit as a substitute or complement of a banking loan has still not been resolved in the financial literature. As a continuation of these arguments, the objective of this article is, on the one hand, to determine the characteristics of firms using leasing credit and on...

This article deals with the usefulness of neuronal networks in the area of corporate finance. Firstly, we highlight the initial applications of neural networks. One can distinguish two main types: layer networks and self organizing maps. As Altman al. (1994) underlined, the use of layer networks...

This paper aims to connect two strands of the venture capital literature: the inter-relationships among venture capitalists (VCs) on the one hand, and between VCs and their funds providers on the other hand. It examines the existence of a relationship between type of fund provider and skill...

De nombreux travaux soutiennent que les CVCs (Corporate Venture Capitalists) financent des investissements ayant une rentabilité moindre que les IVCs (Independent Venture Capitalists). Plusieurs explications sont avancées. La plus fréquente est que les CVCs, assurés d'un refinancement...

The purpose of this study is to prepare a diffusion model of the new international accounting standards known as the IFRS (International Financial Reporting Standards). This model fits within the neo-institutional conceptual framework; more specifically, we used the DiMaggio/Powell analytical...

L'objet de ce travail est d'étudier les pratiques des entreprises cotées sur le Nouveau Marché en matière de comptabilisation des frais de recherche et de développement (R&D). Cette problématique apparaît d'autant plus d'actualité, que la mise en place progressive des normes IAS-IFRS va...
