Previous Research• Private sector impacts have not been the subject of significant, in-depth
research• General lack of data and models describing impacts at
corporate/organizational level• Focus on small businesses (Alesch, Webb, Tierney)• Tied to particular events for specific companies
(Knight and Pretty)– Everglades Air Crash, ValuJet, 1996– Tylenol Poisoning, J&J, 1982– Bhopal Gas Leak, Union Carbide, 1984– Norco Explosion, Shell Oil, 1988– Lockerbie Air Crash– Alaskan Oil Pollution, Exxon Valdez, 1989
ICDRM
Previous Research, Cont’d• Provide valuable baseline for research
• Do not adequately address critical issues of 9/111. Long term effect of extreme events on large, publicly held
corporations
2. Effectiveness of pre-planned and professional corporate crisis management and disaster recovery activities on the long-range economic impact
3. Impact of the terrorist threat on best practices for corporate crisis management, security, and disaster recovery, and business continuity
4. The evolution of new, inter-organizational relationships necessary for preparedness and response to terrorism.

• Presentation of Results
ICDRM
Selection of Companies
www.tenantwise.com
GOAL: To sort through the thousands of companies that had been directly affected by the attacks in order to formulate a list of
between 20 and 25 companies to be studied
ICDRM
Selection Criteria
• Sustained a direct impact in the attacks
• Publicly traded
• Could not be classified as a ‘small’ business
• Maintained at least one additional office, outside the impacted area

The value of a public corporation is its market capitalization – the total value of its publicly held
stock.

Results• Stock Beta values before and after 9/11/2001.

Preliminary Findings• 9/11 events inflicted severe and immediate
physical impacts to all businesses, government offices, and other organizations located in and around the WTC complex.
• Affected companies needed to manage, primarily by themselves, an event that involved dead, injured, missing, physically displaced and traumatized employees, losses of data, information, and institutional knowledge, and an unprecedented uncertainty in market behavior.
ICDRM
For the vast majority of large, publicly traded companies directly impacted by the WTC attacks, it appears that the bulk of financial impacts were
absorbed by the markets/industries rather than the individual companies themselves and therefore transferred quickly to the economy as a whole.
ICDRM
Risk behavior of the majority of companies was not altered to a
significant degree by the 9/11 attacks
ICDRM
There have emerged implications showing that there exist mechanisms to absorb or transfer severe economic and
financial impacts of large-scale disasters affecting large businesses.
ICDRM
Next TasksDetermine what caused discrepancies between the outliers, and confirm our findings regarding market absorption of financial loss,
Investigate strategic impact on corporations not directly impacted by WTC attack (20-25 companies) and compare with sample companies.
•Personal Interviews (40-60)
•Surveys (150)
