Using a novel firm-level collective bargaining dataset (programmatically extracted from companies\u2019 filings), Antonios attempt to portray the impact of labor unionization on corporate matters.<\/p>\n<p>First, his research suggests that audit fees become significantly higher at firms with organized labor, attributable to the more complex structures of unionized firms that increase both the risk and the magnitude of audit fees. The magnitude of labor unionization on audit fees increases (reduces) when the political ideology is supportive of labor unions (employees participate in the ownership of the firm).<\/p>\n<p>Second, his investigation indicates that firms are more likely to adopt CSR reporting strategies as a response to labor unionization. Overall, the effect of union influence on CSR reporting is prominent in areas with incremental union power, attributable to political ideology, the legal environment, and corporate spatial clustering.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, Antonios finds that a unionized firm\u2019s decision to go public (through an Initial Public Offering \u2013 IPO) is associated with less underpricing (less volatility in first day returns) and with downward offer price revisions. Overall, information asymmetries and salient agency costs discourage the participation of investors in an IPO and also compromise the demand investors have for an IPO.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Main Supervisor<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Prof. Stergios Leventis, International Hellenic University, School of Humanities, Social Sciences and Economics<\/p>\n<p><strong>Advisory Committee<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Prof. Kostas Stathopoulos, University of Manchester, Department of Accounting and Finance<\/p>\n<p>Prof. Nikos Vafeas, University of Cyprus, Department of Accounting and Finance<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"shsse-phd-col-1\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-9905\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ihu.gr\/ucips\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2023\/05\/koulikidou.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"138\" height=\"138\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ihu.gr\/ucips\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2023\/05\/koulikidou-66x66.jpg 66w, https:\/\/www.ihu.gr\/ucips\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2023\/05\/koulikidou.jpg 138w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 138px) 100vw, 138px\" \/><br \/>PhD in Accounting<br \/><strong>Koulikidou Kleopatra<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>\n<p><strong>Kleopatra<\/strong> is a Ph.D. holder in Accounting and Finance from International Hellenic University.

Contribution to the study of the Hellenistic farmhouse in Macedonia<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Peli\u2019s PhD research exams a Hellenistic farmhouse, which have been uncovered in the village Dimitra of Grevena. The farmhouse of Agios Konstantinos is a large, rectangular residential complex, which served as a permanent establishment. The farmhouse was in use for the period from the late 3rd century BC to the early 1st century BC. It is classified according to its typology with the farmhouses of a rectangular plan and enclosed central courtyard. The architectural plan of the building follows the typical architectural plan of the Hellenistic houses. However, the farmhouse of Agios Konstantinos is quite different from most Hellenistic farmhouses in Macedonia, because of the luxurious wall decoration in some rooms, which were directly related to the process of the symposium. It seems that the building complex was a large and autonomous economic unit, the result of private initiative.<\/p>\n<p>The study of the farmhouse of Agios Konstantinos has contributed to the reassessment of the view that the Hellenistic farmhouse and its role in the socio-economic life of the ancient polis are only inherently linked to agricultural activities, as it has been long argued. The present study also highlights the artisanal and social character that these building units could enjoy. The seemingly \u201cisolated\u201d farmhouse has proven, geographically and economically, not to be one such.<\/p>\n<p>The results from the research into the farmhouse of Agios Konstantinos prove wrong the theories that considered the region of Grevena to be isolated and poor during in Hellenistic times. The occupation of the farmhouse and the good quality of the construction of the building indicate an owner of high social status. Two broader (and potential) conclusions can thus be drawn. Firstly, the inhabitants of the farmhouses in Macedonia could have led a luxurious life inside their farmhouses, similar to that of the inhabitants of the urban centers of Macedonia during the Hellenistic period. Secondly, in this particular region of west Macedonia there could have existed a social group that involved the national elite.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Main Supervisor<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Professor M.
