DISSERTATION
Topic      : "Antecedents and Consequences of Brand Redeployments"
Chair      : Prof. Srinivas K. Reddy
Abstract   : In the past several years, there has been an increasing trend of a phenomenon in which
           firms decide to change their identities by redeploying their corporate or product brand
           names. These name changes or brand redeployments are either a result of some corporate
           action (e.g a merger or acquisition deal) or an attempt by the firm to reposition itself, or
           its product offerings. Brand redeployments occurring via mergers and acquisitions vary
           across a continuum of approaches ranging from elimination of one brand name,
           concatenation of the brand names and even elimination of a ll names. Such variation in
           the firm’s strategic choice motivates this investigation. The objective of this study is to
           analyze this choice by studying the firm-, market- and transaction-specific antecedent
           factors that lead to these brand name redeployment decisions. The theoretical background
           of this study is based on resource-based perspective, transaction-cost theory, market-
           power, and managerial power arguments. The study also aims to include a review of the
           consequences of this strategic action from the perspective of the various stakeholders of
           the firm. The proposed empirical analysis includes formulating redeployment models
           based on a sample of over 800 merger or acquisition transactions during the 1995-1999
           period and an analysis of the market level consequences of these redeployments. (The
           dissertation is in its final stage of data collection)
