Household Financial Ratios: A Review Of Literature, Nathan Harness, Michael Finke, Swarn Chatterjee
Household Financial Ratios: A Review Of Literature, Nathan Harness, Michael Finke, Swarn Chatterjee
Swarn Chatterjee
The literature on household financial ratios provides insight into the characteristics related to meeting common investment asset, debt, and liquidity guidelines. We know much about the contemporaneous relation between ratios and household characteristics, but the literature exploring the impact of meeting ratio thresholds on subsequent financial success is in its infancy. Ratios can be useful heuristics that efficiently provide information about financial status as well as a prescriptive guideline to motivate more efficient financial behavior. While the existing literature provides some insight into which households have adequate ratios, there are opportunities for additional empirical scrutiny and application of household resource …

Effects Of Friendship In Transactions In An Emerging Market: Empirical Evidence From Brazil, Wesley Mendes-Da-Silva
Wesley Mendes-Da-Silva
This paper considers the inclusion of human behavioral aspects and implications of cognitive psychology and anthropology in decisions relating to the emerging field of behavioral finance. The formulated hypotheses were tested using 400 questionnaires, answered by students enrolled in MBA programs. The principal results suggest that individuals involved in transactions among friends or among strangers assume different behaviors—friends agree about the price attributed to an asset, while strangers show the propensity to bargain.

Takeover Defenses, Golden Parachutes, And Bargaining Over Stochastic Synergy Gains: A Note On Optimal Contracting, Atreya Chakraborty
Takeover Defenses, Golden Parachutes, And Bargaining Over Stochastic Synergy Gains: A Note On Optimal Contracting, Atreya Chakraborty
Atreya Chakraborty
We incorporate managerial risk aversion and stochasticity of takeover synergy gains into Harris’ (Harris, E.G. 1990. Antitakeover measures, golden parachutes, and target firm shareholder welfare. Rand Journal of Economics 21, no. 4 : 614–25.) bargaining model for the coexistence of antitakeover defenses and golden parachutes in corporate charters.We show that: (i) it is not always optimal that the target-firm shareholders adopt antitakeover defenses, (ii) the size of the golden parachute is proportional to the riskiness of the synergistic gains, and (iii) the target-firm shareholders are unequivocally better-off with golden parachutes than takeover-contingent stock options.

Golden Parachutes And Shark Repellents And Shareholders' Interests: Some New Evidence, Atreya Chakraborty
Atreya Chakraborty
In this paper we test for the motives for adopting golden parachutes and Anti-Takeover Amendments (ATAs). Firms that exhibited financial characteristics that were associated with a greater probability of hostile raids were also more likely to adopt golden parachutes or ATAs. We also find evidence to support the hypothesis that the adoption of golden parachutes and poison pills may in fact complement each other.

The Effect Of 9/11 On The Stock Market Volatility Dynamics: Empirical Evidence From A Front Line State, Omar Farooq, Sheraz Ahmed
The Effect Of 9/11 On The Stock Market Volatility Dynamics: Empirical Evidence From A Front Line State, Omar Farooq, Sheraz Ahmed
Omar Farooq
Did the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001 change the volatility dynamics of stock markets? Using daily returns data from Pakistan, a front line state in the war against terror, we investigate whether important time series characteristics, for example first-order time dependence in the mean and conditional variance, the conditional variance risk premium, and the asymmetric response of the conditional variance to innovations, have changed during the post-9/11 period in comparison to these characteristics during the pre-9/11 period. Our results show that the volatility behavior changed significantly after the terrorist attacks of 9/11. We show that this sudden shift in …

Corporate Governance Mechanisms And Performance Related Ceo Turnover, Atreya Chakraborty, Shahbaz A. Sheikh
Corporate Governance Mechanisms And Performance Related Ceo Turnover, Atreya Chakraborty, Shahbaz A. Sheikh
Atreya Chakraborty
This study investigates the impact of corporate governance mechanisms on performance related turnover. Our results indicate that smaller boards and institutional block holders are positively related to the likelihood of performance related turnover. CEOs that also hold the position of the chairman of the board or belong to a founding family face lower likelihood of turnover. CEO stock ownership is negatively related to turnover and CEOs who own 3 percent or more of their company stock face a significantly lower likelihood of performance related turnover. Moreover, protection from external control market has no effect either on the likelihood of turnover.
