“We‘ve proven the best businesses have the most engaged staff. Our research shows high-performing workplaces with progressive leaders are up to 12% more productive and three times more profitable than their peers.”

“We‘re able to analyse the performance of the organisations, and of their CEO‘s, by extracting such information as incentives, salary, firm size, risk etc. There is clear evidence, that well-structured option and share incentives lead to much better decision-making as well as an increased amount of major, successful internal investment projects within organisations. Contrary to what you read in the media, nothing in the business world matters more than incentives.”
PRoFeSSoR GeoFFRey GARRettDeAn AuStRAliAn ScHool oF buSineSS
“We know instinctively that when a company announces its profit and loss figures its share price moves. But it wasn‘t until ASB alumni Professors Philip Brown and Raymond Ball released their seminal research paper this was proven. Their work is the start of modern capital markets-based accounting research.”
The world is facing some of the toughest-ever business challenges. Our researchers are right in the thick of it, impacting public policy and business practice.

“Traditional economic theory assumes people behave as rational savers with not only the ability to understand, but also the willingness to make coherent choices in relation to retirement savings. Quite simply many appear not to be doing that,” she says. “The paradox is that as we have more choices, the harder it gets to choose, so we always decide to take the easy default option.”

“We want to believe what organisations say about their environmental impact. Our work means we can trust what businesses in 100 countries are saying about their greenhouse gas emissions.”

“We devised the SMARTS stock market trading system that is used by 30 exchanges and 150 brokers globally to detect insider trading.”
From seminal research in the 1960‘s on share price movements to current research on employee engagement, executive remuneration, auditing of greenhouse
emission, ageing populations and stock market trading systems, we solve real problems, right now.
