Research & Publications Office to host seminar on ‘Attracting the Sharks: Corporate Lobbying and Short Selling’ on 7 July
The talk will be delivered by Prof. Arun Upadhyay, Florida International University
1 July, 2025, Bengaluru: The Office of Research and Publications (R&P) will host a seminar on, ‘Attracting the Sharks: Corporate Lobbying and Short Selling’, to be led by Prof. Arun Upadhyay, Florida International University (Finance & Accounting area), at 12 pm on 7th July 2025, at P22.
Abstract: The research examines the relationship between corporate lobbying and information leakage. The analysis indicates that firms engaged in corporate lobbying experience substantially higher short sales prior to unfavorable unexpected earnings announcements than non-lobbying firms. Information leakage is more prominent in firms with weaker corporate governance and when firms employ low-reputation lobbyists. Furthermore, short sale interest in lobbying firms contains critical information in predicting stock returns up to sixty trading days after an unfavorable earnings announcement. However, the researchers find no evidence of predictability in non-lobbying firms.
Speaker Profile: Dr. Arun Upadhyay is the Knight Ridder Eminent Scholar Endowment Chair Professor, Department of Finance, at Florida International University. His research focuses on corporate governance issues. He studies corporate leadership structure, board structure, financial reporting and executive compensation. He has published articles on these topics in journals such as The Accounting Review, Strategic Management Journal, Journal of Financial and Quantitative Analysis, Financial Management, Journal of Corporate Finance, Journal of Banking & Finance, Journal of Risk and Insurance, and Journal of Business Finance & Accounting.

Research & Publications Office to host seminar on ‘Managing political and economic risks in emerging markets: The role of field position in MNE institutional agency’ on 11 July
The talk will be delivered by Prof. Harsh Kumar Jha, IIM Udaipur
3 July, 2025, Bengaluru: The Office of Research and Publications (R&P) will host a seminar on, ‘Managing political and economic risks in emerging markets: The role of field position in MNE institutional agency’, to be led by Prof. Harsh Kumar Jha, IIM Udaipur (Organizational Behavior & Human Resources Management area), at 4 pm on 11th July 2025, at Q001.
Abstract: The study shows the extent to which MNEs holding distinct field positions differ in how they manage political and economic risks in Emerging Markets. Based on a comparative case analysis of nine subsidiaries of foreign pharmaceutical MNEs operating in Russia in the aftermath of the annexation of Crimea from Ukraine in 2014, the researchers identify a typology of strategies through which local subsidiaries counter effects of Western sanctions imposed on the Russian market and the rising economic nationalism in Russia: demonstrating corporate loyalty, multinationality straddling, politicking and leveraging expert status. They further find that MNE subsidiaries holding central, intermediate and peripheral field positions deploy such strategies correspondingly as part of unique, yet overlapping, combinations: the Dominant expert, the Machiavellian expert, and the Loyalist. The findings of the study contribute to existing literature by illuminating field positions as a largely overlooked yet critical factor in understanding MNE agency in relation to the institutional environment.
Speaker Profile: Dr. Harsh Kumar Jha is an Associate Professor in the OBHRM group at IIM Udaipur. He has previously held academic positions at Cardiff University and Newcastle University, UK. His research interests predominantly lie in the areas of organizational theory, organizational cognition, and interface of business and society. His research predominantly explores how actors respond to environmental pressure and engage in legitimacy construction. He also has a set of developing interests in social inclusion, sustainability and entrepreneurship. Empirically, his research has examined a variety of settings, such as professional occupations (law, health care and education), media scandals and extreme contexts (human-animal conflict and subsistence entrepreneurship). Methodologically, he has expertise in both qualitative and quantitative approaches, and is particularly interested in mixed methods research, especially integrating inductive qualitative analysis with machine learning tools (e.g. topic modeling), network analysis tools (e.g. correspondence analysis) and QCA. Prof Jha’s research has been published in leading international journals, such as, Academy of Management Journal and Human Relations.

Centre for Public Policy to host XX International Conference on Public Policy & Management from 19 to 21 August
Conference is themed on ‘Rethinking State Capacity in Delivering Public Policy’
16 June, 2025, Bengaluru: The Centre for Public Policy (CPP) will host the XX International Conference on Public Policy & Management from 19 to 21 August 2025, at the institute campus. The theme for this year’s conference is ‘Rethinking State Capacity in Delivering Public Policy’.
The last date for complete paper submission was 15 June 2025, while announcement of acceptance results (for all categories of submissions) was made on 30 June 2025. For more details, please visit: https://www.iimb.ac.in/cpp-xx-2025/
The organizing committee of this year’s CPP Conference on Public Policy & Management comprises Prof. Rajalaxmi Kamath, Chairperson, Internal Committee; Prof. Arnab Mukherji, Chairperson, Post Graduate Programme in Public Policy and Management (PGPPM); Prof. Allen P Ugargol; Prof. Rusha Das and Prof. Arpit Shah – all IIMB faculty from the Public Policy area.
The interdisciplinary conference draws scholars representing diverse perspectives on public policy issues and provides a forum for showcasing the latest developments in policy research and practice. The conference hosts pre-conference activities, academic sessions, topical policy debates, workshops, panel discussions and practitioner-oriented discussions on contemporary topics in public policy and management.
The conference is ideal for academicians, students, research scholars, policy practitioners, lawyers, NGO professionals and others with an interest in public policy. Although the selected papers are not published in any journal, the abstracts however, are put together as part of the conference report which is mostly limited to organizational reporting.
The theme: ‘Rethinking State Capacity in Delivering Public Policy’
The modern state is anchored by regulations, schemes, organization and broadly, public policy, whose effectiveness is driven by the state’s capacity to deliver on its intentions. Development of theories and frameworks around State Capacity is an ongoing academic exercise. Building on State Capacity as a theoretical construct forces one to think about implementation issues, ex-ante, and if the same could be tackled by innovative design. Evidence around the world speaking of such innovations in State Capacity would be one way of looking at it. Monitoring, evaluating and learning from existing schemes, missions and programs and their lessons towards understanding existing State Capacity, could be another. State Capacity’s role in fostering economic and social development cannot be understated, but equally, the challenges of Politics and Political Economy need to be factored in while enunciating it.
From frameworks for expanding primary healthcare systems towards universal health coverage to strengthening informal labour markets, addressing climate change, advancing agriculture and financial inclusion, exploring pathways to a just transition in the face of socio-environmental changes, the exploration of State Capacity spans a wide array of critical themes. This conference will include research papers and practitioner case studies tackling these issues, among others, building towards an ongoing corpus of literature in and around State Capacity in delivering Public Policy.

About the Conference
Artificial intelligence (AI) has become the next big landscape, which is evolving at an exponential pace. Its versatility has percolated into the domain of Human Resources, where AI-powered tools are increasingly assisting professionals. However, alongside the promise of this disruption, the needs of the employees are evolving, making it imperative to rethink sustainability in HRM and help them navigate the impact. The 6th HRIC aims to redirect the conversations toward disruption in the industry and explore how HRM can be reimagined to equip employees with the right skills and mindset to navigate the major changes dictated by these disruptions. Previous HRIC conferences have been conducted in China, Australia, Ireland, New Zealand and South Africa.
