NOW PT (A): Should We Invest?
by George A. Riedel Mel Martin Amy KlopfensteinIn fall 2021, a team of students from the HBS Impact Investing Fund considered Neurologic Optimal Wellness Physical Therapy (NOW PT) for a potential investment. Dr. Banks, the founder of NOW PT, drove to visit patients. She sought an investment from the fund to open a brick-and-mortar clinic. However, the students believed that Dr. Banks might be more successful if she continued providing mobile PT services. At the conclusion of the case, the students must perform due diligence to test their hypothesis. What should their priorities be as they begin the due diligence process?
NOW PT (B): Should We Invest?
by George A. Riedel Mel Martin Amy KlopfensteinThis (B) case examines the results of the HBS Impact Investment Fund student team's diligence on Neurologic Optimal Wellness Physical Therapy (NOW PT).

The case appendix provides the students' Investment Committee deck, which readers can reference as an example of a thorough due diligence process. The conclusion of the case reveals the students' investment recommendation and its results.
NOWaccount
by William A. Sahlman Ramana Nanda Lauren BarleyIt was September 2013, and NOWaccount Network Corporation (NOW ) co-founders John Hayes and Lara Hodgson were putting the final touches on the presentation deck for their annual shareholders' meeting. Along with co-founder Stacey Abrams, the pair had designed NOW's business model three years ago, and the company was at a critical juncture. NOW offered a program-called NOWaccount-that provided working capital to small businesses by converting their trade receivables almost immediately into cash. Founded in December 2010, Atlanta, Georgia-based NOW was serving clients in nine states. With 2013 year-to-date revenue of roughly $100,000, NOW was financed with $2.5 million of founder, and friends and family equity. NOW's wholly-owned, not-for-profit special purpose entity (SPE), Trade Credit Guaranty Corporation (TCGC), purchased approved receivables, funding 90% of the invoice face values by electronic transfers into clients' bank accounts. As of September 2013, TCGC had purchased more than $13 million of small business trade receivables from more than 40 clients. Once TCGC reached a scale of approximately $150 million of funds in use for receivable purchases, the co-founders planned to tap into the securitization market for capital by issuing asset-backed securities (ABS), collateralized by a pool of receivables, much like the credit card industry. ABS would provide TCGC ongoing capital at a lower cost. The question the co-founders confronted was whether they should get to the $150 million securitization threshold by piecing together smaller pools of capital from credit unions and possibly smaller banks (a slower approach but one that did not involve dilution because it was all debt finance), or by accepting larger chunks of capital from a major global bank and a private equity firm, getting them much closer to the threshold but at the cost of significant dilution (35%) as these financiers were also looking for a combination of equity and warrants in NOW.

NSC 68 and the Political Economy of the Early Cold War
by Curt CardwellNSC 68 and the Political Economy of the Early Cold War re-examines the origins and implementation of NSC 68, the massive rearmament program that the United States embarked upon beginning in the summer of 1950. Curt Cardwell reinterprets the origins of NSC 68 to demonstrate that the aim of the program was less about containing communism than ensuring the survival of the nascent postwar global economy, upon which rested postwar U.S. prosperity. The book challenges most studies on NSC 68 as a document of geostrategy and argues instead that it is more correctly understood as a document rooted in concerns for the U.S. domestic political economy.
NTT DOCOMO's Race to 5G
by Juan Alcacer Akiko Kanno Horst MelcherThe case, based on extensive interviews with NTT DOCOMO's technology leaders, focuses on the opportunities and challenges that NTT DOCOMO faces with the launch of infrastructure and services for 5G wireless telecommunication technology. With higher data rates and capacity, lower latency, and massive device connectivity, 5G could support new opportunities for growing NTT DOCOMO's business, which has been on a non-growth path since the early 2000s. The case details NTT DOCOMO's actions during previous transitions across wireless generations, illustrating the tradeoffs between being a first technological mover versus learning from the experience from other players in the market. It also highlights the intricacies of making a transition within a technological ecosystem, where coordination across different players is key for a successful strategy. Specifically, the case provides a platform to discuss the strategic options NTT DOCOMO is pursuing prior to launching 5G: What new services could they offer? Should they target corporate customers? Can NTT DOCOMO return to a sustainable growth path through 5G? How can they capture a larger share of the value created through 5G enabled internet ecosystems?

NTT DoCoMo, Inc.: Mobile FeliCa
by Thomas R. Eisenmann Masako Egawa Stephen P. Bradley Akiko KannoManagers of DoCoMo, Japan's largest mobile phone company, are formulating a strategy for mobile FeliCa: contactless integrated circuits that will be built into DoCoMo phones, allowing them to be used for quick and convenient retail or commuter fare payments, building entry, airline boarding passes, and other applications. DoCoMo's managers must determine how best to profit from mobile FeliCa. The options, which are not mutually exclusive, include: increasing mobile phone subscriber acquisition and retention rates by offering "sticky" differentiated new services; extracting monopoly rents from a joint venture (with Sony, FeliCa's inventor) that will license FeliCa technology to other mobile phone companies and application providers; and profiting from eMoney (retail payments) either through partnerships with incumbent financial services firms or by offering payment services directly.
NTT DoCoMo: Marketing i-mode
by Youngme Mooni-mode is a wireless Internet service offered in Japan by NTT DoCoMo. In just three years, the service has won over 30 million subscribers and achieved a 60% share of Japan's mobile Internet market, making it the most successful mobile data service in the world. It is now early 2002 and Keiichi Enoki, managing director of NTT DoCoMo's i-mode service, faces two challenges. On the domestic front, i-mode must fend off two strong competitors while managing the migration of i-mode's existing customer base to DoCoMo's new 3G (third-generation) wireless service. On the international front, the company must figure out a way to bring the i-mode model to U.S. and European markets, where consumers appear reluctant to adopt the mobile Internet.

NYPD Confidential: Power and Corruption in the Country's Greatest Police Force
by Leonard LevittFor years, the police commissioner and the mayor of New York City have duked it out for publicity, credit, and power. Some have translated their stardom into success after leaving office, while others have been hung out to dry. In the battle for control of the country's most powerful police force, these high-status government officials have often chosen political expediency over public honesty. The result is a legacy of systemic corruption and cover-ups that is nothing less than shocking. Respected journalist Leonard Levitt has covered the NYPD for New York Newsday, and the New York Post among other papers. His columns have made him persona non grata in police headquarters. In NYPD Confidential, he reveals everything he's discovered throughout his decades-long career. With amazing details of backroom deals and larger-than-life powerbrokers, Levitt lays bare the backstabbing, power-grabs, and chaotic internal investigations that have run the NYPD's reputation into the ground in the past—and the forces conspiring to do so once again.
NYPD New
by James L. HeskettPolice Commissioner Bratten and his staff have led a process designed to create a results-oriented police department from one that previously emphasized and measured effort. With increasing budgeting pressures, the next phase of effort calls for increasing emphasis on productivity as well as a reduction in crime.

Nachhaltig erfolgreiches Bankmanagement: Ein Paradigmenwechsel für Banksteuerung und Bankenregulierung
by Klaus LeusmannDieses Buch analysiert kritisch das vorherrschende bankbetriebswirtschaftliche Steuerungskonzept und schlägt praxisgerechte Lösungen für erkannte Defizite vor. Im zweiten Kapitel wird die „Wertorientierte Banksteuerung“ vorgestellt, so wie sie noch heute Kern der wissenschaftlichen bzw. universitären Lehre ist. Sie wird im Folgenden für die Zwecke dieses Buches auch als „Bankmanagement 1.0“ bezeichnet. Bei der Beschreibung steht nicht die Darstellung von mathematisch-statistischen Details für spezifische Problemstellungen im Vordergrund, sondern die methodischen und strukturellen Grundlagen, Annahmen und Modelle.Im dritten Kapitel werden sukzessive Schwachpunkte dieser Grundlagen der Banksteuerung analysiert und dabei mit Beispielen aus der Praxis unterlegt. Abschließend werden die Auswirkungen zusammenfassend beurteilt und Anforderungen an ein sachgerechtes „Bankmanagement 2.0“ abgeleitet.Das vierte Kapitel befasst sich einleitend mit den Zielen und der Organisation der Bankenaufsicht in der Marktwirtschaft und beschreibt anschließend die wesentlichen Inhalte der Regulierung. Abschließend wird erörtert, inwieweit die zu beobachtende zunehmende Detailregulierung zur Bekämpfung der negativen Symptome einer unzureichenden Steuerung geeignet ist und den ursprünglichen Anforderungen an eine staatliche Regulierung in einem marktwirtschaftlichen Umfeld noch gerecht werden kann. Es wird gezeigt, dass sich die Bankenregulierung u.a. aufgrund verwandter Probleme zur betriebswirtschaftlichen Risikosteuerung derzeit in einem strategischen Dilemma befindet, welches nur durch einen Paradigmenwechsel gelöst werden kann.Im fünften Kapitel werden für die im dritten Kapitel analysierten Steuerungsdefizite jeweils denkbare praxisgerechte Lösungsansätze abgeleitet und soweit bereits möglich in ihrer Wirkung belegt. Danach wird in grober Form aufgezeigt, wie mit einem Paradigmenwechsel das im vierten Kapitel herausgearbeitete Regulierungsdilemma aufgelöst werden kann. Abschließend wird dargestellt, wie die Lösungen der einzelnen Defizite zu einer neuen Integrierten Banksteuerung 2.0 zusammengefasst werden können.In der Zusammenfassung wird verdeutlicht, dass das Bankmanagement 2.0 als Voraussetzung für einen nachhaltigen Erfolg in Form eines Paradigmenwechsels die Mittel-Zweck-Beziehung von Kapital und Mensch wieder vom Kopf auf die Füße stellt.
Nachhaltig führen, nachhaltig belohnen: Wie ESG-Kriterien die Vergütung in DAX-Unternehmen prägen
by Chris Heiler Peter ZensDas Buch analysiert Vorstandsvergütungen in deutschen Unternehmen im Kontext von Nachhaltigkeit und ESG (Environmental, Social, Governance). Immer mehr Unternehmen sehen in den Themen wichtige strategische Erfolgsfaktoren. Die Autoren untersuchen, ob sich dies auch in den Vergütungsstrukturen der Vorstände von DAX-Segmentunternehmen widerspiegelt, und ziehen für ihre Analyse die veröffentlichten Vergütungsberichte der Geschäftsjahre 2022 und 2023 heran. Sie stellen fest, dass trotz historischer Reformen wie dem Gesetz zur Angemessenheit der Vorstandsvergütung (VorstAG) sowie dem Gesetz zur Umsetzung der zweiten Aktionärsrechterichtlinie (ARUG II) keine gesetzliche Pflicht zur ESG-Integration besteht. Die ESG-Einbindung erfolgt auf vielfältige Weise, was die Vergleichbarkeit erschwert. Im Laufe ihrer Analyse wird aber immer deutlicher, welche ESG-Ziele die Vergütung bereits prägen, und sie wagen einen Ausblick auf künftige Entwicklungen. Dieses Buch liefert wertvolle Einblicke für Führungskräfte, Investoren und Wissenschaftler, die sich mit der Zukunft der Vorstandsvergütung und der strategischen Bedeutung von ESG auseinandersetzen.
