A Logica De Acumulação Capitalista E O Racionamento Da Oferta De Crédito, Amilton Bispo Dos Reis
Amilton Bispo dos Reis
Este texto deriva da dissertação de mestrado do autor - Crédito para MPES: Análise da Experiência Brasileira Recente - e pretende analisar o atendimento à demanda de crédito das micro e pequenas empresas por parte do sistema bancário, enfatizando as peculiaridades do mercado brasileiro, com o objetivo de identificar em que medida esse caso particular se aproxima ou se afasta do padrão geral apresentado no resto do mundo.

An End To Too Big To Let Fail? The Dodd–Frank Act’S Orderly Liquidation Authority, Thomas J. Fitzpatrick Iv, James B. Thomson
An End To Too Big To Let Fail? The Dodd–Frank Act’S Orderly Liquidation Authority, Thomas J. Fitzpatrick Iv, James B. Thomson
James Thomson
One of the changes introduced by the sweeping new fi nancial market legislation of the Dodd–Frank Act is the provision of a formal process for liquidating large fi nancial fi rms—something that would have been useful in 2008, when troubles at Lehman Brothers, AIG, and Merrill Lynch threatened to damage the entire U.S. fi nancial system. While it may not be the end of the too-big-to-fail problem, the orderly liquidation authority is an important new tool in the regulatory toolkit. It will enable regulators to safely close and wind up the affairs of those distressed fi nancial fi rms whose …

By employing leverage to gain more exposure to stocks when young, individuals can achieve better diversification across time. Using stock data going back to 1871, we show that early leverage combined with reduced equity exposure when older can reduce lifetime portfolio risk. For example, an initially-leveraged portfolio can produce the same mean accumulation as a constant 75% stock allocation with a 21% smaller standard deviation. Since the mean accumulation is the same, the reduction in volatility does not depend on the equity premium. A leveraged lifecycle strategy can also allow investors to come closer to their utility-maximizing allocation. If risk …
Black Tuesday And Graying The Legitimacy Line For Governmental Intervention: When Tomorrow Is Just A Future Yesterday, Donald J. Kochan
Black Tuesday And Graying The Legitimacy Line For Governmental Intervention: When Tomorrow Is Just A Future Yesterday, Donald J. Kochan
Donald J. Kochan
Black Tuesday in October 1929 marked a major crisis in American history. As we face current economic woes, it is appropriate to recall not only the event but also reflect on how it altered the legal landscape and the change it precipitated in the acceptance of governmental intervention into the marketplace. Perceived or real crises can cause us to dance between free markets and regulatory power. Much like the events of 1929, current financial concerns have led to new, unprecedented governmental intervention into the private sector. This Article seeks caution, on the basis of history, arguing that fear and crisis …
