Vol. 66 No.2 (Summer 2017)
The current issue of the Nordic Journal of Business consists of three peer-reviewed articles. The first article by Jonas Spohr (Åbo Akademi University) examines whether quarterly accounting fundamentals and stock price changes can be used to predict profit warnings of Nordic firms. In the second article, Riitta Forsten-Astikainen, Terhi Tuominen and Pia Heilmann from Lappeenranta University of Technology focus on employees’ competences and the implications of these competences on the individual and organizational levels. The third article by Piia Pekola (Ministry of Social Affairs and Health), Ismo Linnosmaa (National Institute for Health and Welfare) and Hennamari Mikkola (Social Insurance Institution of Finland) analyzes the association between firm-level financial risk and service quality in the healthcare sector.
I hope you enjoy reading the interesting articles featured in this issue of the Nordic Journal of Business.
