We are a department that has been active for 22 years with the goal to determine the structural changes in economy and the problems of general business administration, to develop problem solving skills and to devise modelling techniques that fit our aims. Among our cornerstones are to graduate more students into administrative positions of our institutions, to help them realize their inner potential to be go-getters, to prepare them for the entrance exams for high-tier, well-respected public positions, and to help them participate graduate and doctorate degree programs at ease, nationally or internationally. In this regard, our course curriculum is constantly subject to updates. In addition, we do all in our power to graduate students that stand out, with double-major program opportunities. We make an effort to aid our students in kick-starting their professional life after completing a period of one semester at Private - Public institutions within the framework of our Cooperative Education Program.

Abstract

We examine the impact of economic policy uncertainty as measured by Baker et al. (2016) on share repurchase activity in the U.S. market. We employ panel analyses with 2258 firms between 1990 and 2017 using a quarterly dataset. Our findings reveal that firm managers tend to make less or no repurchases under high level of uncertainty in the economy.
