Event-Study Methodology Under Conditions Of Event-Induced Variance, Ekkehart Boehmer, Jim Masumeci, Annette B. Poulsen

Research Collection Lee Kong Chian School Of Business

Many authors have identified the hazards of ignoring event-induced variance in event studies. To determine the practical extent of the problem, we simulate an event with stochastic effects. We find that when an event causes even minor increases in variance, the most commonly-used methods reject the null hypothesis of zero average abnormal return too frequently when it is true, although they are reasonably powerful when it is false. We demonstrate that a simple adjustment to the cross-sectional techniques produces appropriate rejection rates when the null is true and equally powerful tests when it is false.

Reuse And Productivity In Integrated Computer-Aided Software Engineering: An Empirical Study, Rajiv D. Banker, Robert J. Kauffman

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Growing competition in the investment banking industry has given rise to increasing demand for high functionality software applications that can be developed in a short period of time. Yet delivering such applications creates a bottleneck in software development activities. This dilemma can be addressed when firms shift to development methods that emphasize software reusability. This article examines the productivity implications of object and repository-based integrated computer-aided software engineering (ICASE) software development in the context of a major investment bank's information systems strategy. The strategy emphasizes software reusability. Our empirical results, based on data from 20 projects that delivered software for …

A Study Into The Feasibility Of Establishing A System For The Buy-Back Of Salmon Fishing Authorisations And Related Endorsements., P. J. Monaghan

Fisheries management papers

A buy-back system for the buy-back of under performing salmon authorisations is suggested as the most cost effective method of reducing the number of salmon fishing units. It could be of benefit to commercial salmon fishermen and could be achieved at relatively modest cost. The alternative of implementing a buy-back system of interest to all salmon authorisation holders could be extraordinary expensive as salmon fishermen place a high value on lifestyle.

A Discussion Of Options For Effort Reduction., Southern Demersal Gillnet And Demersal Longline Fishery Management Advisory Committe

Fisheries management papers

The committee prefers to reduce effort in the fishery by improving the effectiveness of the 50 per cent reduction on transfer rule. To do this it is necessary to prevent the use of lease arrangements which act as a form of transfer.Some consideration could also be given to encouraging transfer of licences by protecting purchased units against further effort reductions. The Minister for Fisheries has determined that ownership statement must be completed prior to licence renewal each year. It is hoped that this will prevent licence holders from using lease arrangements to effect transfers and so avoid the loss of …

Establishment Of A Registry To Record Charges Against Fishing Licences When Used As Security For Loans., P. Rogers

Fisheries management papers

This report outlines the Committee's final advice to the Minister for Fisheries on the need for a public commercial fishing licence register which has a mechanism for the recording of financial security interest in fishing licences. The Committee was greatly assisted by legislation introduced within the Victorian State Parliament during 1989, which by amendment to the Fisheries Act, provides for the registration of prescribed financial interests in fishing licences (See Appendix 1).

The Future For Recreational Fishing Forum Proceedings Saturday, 20 October 1990., Recreational Fishing Advisory Committee

Fisheries management papers

Australia's first recreational fishing forum was held at the West Australian Cricket Association Ground, in Perth WA on Saturday, 20 October 1990. It was clearly recognised by government, fishers and fisheries managers alike that the 1990's was the decade of decision for recreational fishing in WA. At the end of the day, the 12 speakers had covered an impressive range of topics, from the principles of resource sharing to community education and the question of funding the management of recreational fishing.

Nationwide Branching: Some Lessons From California, Lynne Doti

Economics Faculty Articles and Research

California provides a case study of a large and diverse geographic area with few restrictions on branch banking. In spite of the lack of restrictions, branching occurred primarily in two periods, the 1920's and 1960's. Large banks took over smaller banks during these periods, but, particularly in the 1960's, new banks opened to fill the gap. Branching without limitation did not result in a few banks dominating the market.

The Effects Of Airline Strikes On Struck And Nonstruck Carriers, Richard Defusco, Scott M. Fuess Jr.

Department of Finance: Faculty Publications

This study provides new evidence on the industry-wide impact of strikes by investigating how strikes have affected the values of struck and nonstruck airlines. Using stock market data for the years 1963-86, the authors show that most strikes adversely affected the value of struck airlines' stock but enhanced the stock value of nonstruck carriers. The results also show that strikes before October 1978, which marked the end of strict regulation of the industry and of the employers' mutual aid pact, had some effects different from those of strikes after that date.

Actuarial Computation Of Multiemployer Pension Plan Withdrawal Liability, Kelly A. Renze

Presidential Scholars Theses (1990 – 2006)

This project helps to demonstrate how pension actuaries must keep a constant eye on new laws. The pension industry is constantly bombarded with new laws which force them to alter policies and procedures. Because of the huge number of laws, it is difficult for all employees to fully understand every law. During my stay at the Principal, I discovered that many passages are interpreted differently by different people. I also uncovered some details through my research that other employees were not aware of.

Because of this complexity, it is often necessary to assign to one person, such as myself, the …
