China Looks To Add Credit Default Swaps, Steven D. Dolvin Mar 2016

China Looks To Add Credit Default Swaps, Steven D. Dolvin

All Chapters

Credit Default Swaps (CDSs) enable investors to hedge the risk of bond (or other credit securities) default. Like any derivative, they essentially allow investors to transfer risk -- from hedgers to speculators (or even between hedgers or speculators with different exposures). See article here, Reuters.

Financial Innovation, Investor Behavior, And Arbitrage: Implications From The Etf Market, Wenxi Jiang, Hongjun Yan Mar 2016

Financial Innovation, Investor Behavior, And Arbitrage: Implications From The Etf Market, Wenxi Jiang, Hongjun Yan

College of Business Faculty and Staff Works

Regular and levered ETFs are markedly different financial innovations. Regular ETFs improve liquidity: they are more liquid than their underlying stocks. In contrast, although the levered ETF market has a substantially higher turnover, it also has a significantly higher bid-ask spreads and larger price impacts. Our interpretation is that levered ETFs are appealing to short-term levered speculators. The aggregate cost levered ETF investors incur is around 10% of the market capitalization, or around $2 billion, each year. Moreover, regular ETF investors appear to be momentum traders, while levered ETF investors are contrarians: For regular (levered) ETFs, their monthly fund flows …

Change Of Direction: Haolu "Lulu" Wang Traded Finance For The Lens Of Filmmaking, Claire Sykes

Colby Magazine

After only two years with an investment bank in Hong Kong, her first job straight out of Colby with a degree in government and economics, the Chinese-born-and-raised Wang left and took off for Florence, Italy, to become a filmmaker. Before the eight-week, hands-on introductory course there had ended, she realized “this was something I could do for the rest of my life,” she said in an interview via Skype.

Determinants Of Nba Average Annual Attendance By Team, Kevin Joseph Mcgee Mar 2016

Determinants Of Nba Average Annual Attendance By Team, Kevin Joseph Mcgee

Research in the Capitol

My project explores which characteristics of NBA teams are significant determinants of average attendance for the 1990-91 to 2014-15 seasons. By determining which variables are significant and the direction and magnitude of their impact on a team’s annual attendance, the results may be used to predict future NBA attendance figures, analyze how different teams can improve attendance and revenues, and determine whether other cities, such as Des Moines, are strong candidates for attracting new NBA teams. In the exploration of which characteristics are most important to determining NBA attendance, data has been collected and sorted by each team by year. …


Chinese Strategic Asset Seeking Activity In The United States, Justin Niday Mar 2016

Chinese Strategic Asset Seeking Activity In The United States, Justin Niday

Research in the Capitol

With the continual economic growth of China, the importance of Chinese foreign direct investment and where this investment is directed grows as well. There has been research within the last decade looking into the significance of strategic-asset-seeking (SAS) when determining the factors of Chinese foreign direct investment (FDI). SAS is classified as foreign direct investment that targets technology, patents, stocks, and human capital. Numerous studies have found differing results when measuring the significance of SAS in determining FDI. This literature review compares completed research in order to find how the measurement of SAS affects location models. For this review data …

Normally higher incomes lead to higher spending, but recent increases in income seem to be headed into savings. This creates a mixed picture for consumer stocks. See article here, LA Times.

An Examination Of Control Fraud In Non-Banking Industries, Kaylie Takahashi Mar 2016

An Examination Of Control Fraud In Non-Banking Industries, Kaylie Takahashi

Honors Theses

William Black’s (2005) control fraud theory suggests accounting fraud initiated by CEOs is more damaging than accounting fraud that is not. However, this theory has only been applied anecdotally to financial institutions. I test Black’s theory using a sample of manufacturing, merchandising, and service firms that engaged in accounting fraud from 2007-2014. I hypothesize that firms which commit CEO-led fraud will exhibit greater growth, leverage, and have higher CEO compensation. My findings do not show that there is any evidence that control frauds are more damaging than other accounting frauds that do not involve the CEO.

Transfer Pricing Equity: An Examination Of Reported Revenue Versus Expected Revenue, Justin Moore, Harold Harold, Clarence Coleman Mar 2016

Transfer Pricing Equity: An Examination Of Reported Revenue Versus Expected Revenue, Justin Moore, Harold Harold, Clarence Coleman

The Winthrop McNair Research Bulletin

This research examines whether African crude oil and natural gas liquids (NGLs) sales revenue deviates from expected sales revenue based on market prices. The deviation may be the result of International Oil Companies (IOCs) transferring a significant amount of crude oils and NGLs to other regions of the world to be turned into finished goods, due to the lack of refining capacity in Africa. This situation suggests that the African region’s governments are placed at a significant disadvantage from profiting off the crude oils and NGLs reserves in their countries because they cannot turn the majority of crude oils and …
