The Role Of Bank Capital Through Monetary Policy Transmission Mechanism, Waraluk Rosmontee
The Role Of Bank Capital Through Monetary Policy Transmission Mechanism, Waraluk Rosmontee
Chulalongkorn University Theses and Dissertations (Chula ETD)
This study examines the role of bank capital in the transmission of monetary policy, considering the bank lending channel (BLC) and financial development. Analyzing bank-level data from nine countries during 2007-2021 with GMM method, the study finds that well-capitalized banks are better positioned to expand loan supply and withstand adverse shocks. However, behavioral patterns differ between developed and ASEAN countries. In developed nations, policy rate changes have inconclusive effects on loan growth, while profitable banks and inflation drive credit expansion. In ASEAN countries, policy rate increases are associated with loan growth, reflecting favorable economic conditions. Financial development impacts credit expansion …

Flow-Performance Relationship In Defi Yield Aggregator, Apisara Pornprasith
Chulalongkorn University Theses and Dissertations (Chula ETD)
Decentralized Finance (DeFi) is a new financial infrastructure with applications similar to traditional financial products, such as exchange, lending, derivatives, and asset management. This paper empirically investigates Yearn finance, one of the fastest-growing and largest in DeFi yield aggregator protocols for on-chain asset management, to demonstrate the flow-performance relationship and compare it with mutual funds in traditional finance. According to the findings, there is a positive non-linear relationship between fund flows and recent performance for using stablecoin deposited. In contrast, we cannot find this relationship for using cryptocurrency. Then, we look further into stablecoin holder behaviour and our findings show …

The Impact Of Government Response To Covid-19 On Stock Return Predictability, Disayadej Dangdej
Chulalongkorn University Theses and Dissertations (Chula ETD)
Recession is known to cause an increase in stock return predictability. The COVID-19 pandemics had not only resulted in sickness and loss of life but also plunged global economy into recession prompting governments to come up with measures to combat the disease. This paper first confirms that return predictability increased due the spread of COVID-19 using data from 41 countries on variations of popular predictors. Furthermore, it shows that government responses to COVID-19 alleviated the pandemic, the recession and reduced the return predictability with varying impact for different government measures. However, cases and deaths from COVID-19 which should have intensified …

Accrual-Based Earnings Management And Real Earnings Management Around Two Key Corporate Governance Regulatory Regime Changes In Thailand, Noor Nayeem Hasnat Farhan
Chulalongkorn University Theses and Dissertations (Chula ETD)
Two major corporate governance-related regulatory changes, one in 1999 and one in 2008, were implemented as a means to increase the independence of boards of directors of public companies in Thailand. I study whether each of these regulatory changes affects the degree of and leads to substitution of accrual-based earnings management (AEM) and real earnings management (REM), plus the effect of family ownership on the type and degree of earning management. The outcomes of the two regulatory changes are different with respect to earnings management. Univariate tests suggest no change in the levels of AEM and REM for the 1999 …

Why Is The Third Principal Component Of The Yield Curve Important: A Point Of View From Reverse Stress Test On Credit Portfolio, Phanuwat Ritpornnarong
Chulalongkorn University Theses and Dissertations (Chula ETD)
The focus of this study is to analyze the shape of the yield curve on credit portfolios during crises, specifically those that are exposed to both interest rate and credit risks. To achieve this, We utilized a reverse stress test (RST) and macroeconomic measures (such as GDP and U.S risk-free yields) from the period of 1981 to 2014 to estimate mathematical models. We then utilized a Monte Carlo simulation to determine the most likely scenario for the measures if the portfolio value reaches a pre-specified threshold. The researchers discovered that the shape of the stressed yield curves varied depending on …

Does Accounting Quality Reduce External Financial Constraints?, Chapit Asirapongporn
Chulalongkorn University Theses and Dissertations (Chula ETD)
This study investigates how accounting quality relates to financial constraints at the firm level. In this study, our first hypothesis is that higher accounting quality reduces financial constraints at the firm level. Our second hypothesis is that higher accounting quality reduces financial constraints more after IFRS adoption in 2011 than before IFRS adoption in Thailand. Our third hypothesis is that higher accounting quality reduces financial constraints more in state-owned enterprises than in privately-owned enterprises. Lastly, auditing quality could be another proxy of accounting quality. Therefore, our fourth hypothesis is that higher auditing quality reduces financial constraints at the firm level. …
The Impact Of Moral Hazard In Institutional Environment On The Decision To Perform Partial Acquisition Or Full Acquisition, Thornthep Paengsawat
The Impact Of Moral Hazard In Institutional Environment On The Decision To Perform Partial Acquisition Or Full Acquisition, Thornthep Paengsawat
Chulalongkorn University Theses and Dissertations (Chula ETD)
This paper investigates the impact of moral hazard on the corporate strategic decision regarding Mergers and Acquisitions. Whether the decision by the acquirer to make partial or full acquisitions is driven by moral hazard is the main implication of this research paper. Considering several subsamples of mergers and acquisition transactions, in domestic transaction, an increase in private benefits of control does increase the odd of making partial acquisition. Considering the subsample of cross-border acquisitions, private benefits of control still increases the odd of making partial acquisition but the effect is less pronounced. Having control for the profit-maximizing reasons to make …

Are Short Sellers Equally Informed? Evidence From The Us. Credit Rating Announcements, Omtong Kasemsant
Chulalongkorn University Theses and Dissertations (Chula ETD)
This study uses credit rating and daily short sale data of firms listed in NYSE from January 2015 to December 2021 to examine whether there is informed trading. Although post-announcement abnormal return is negatively correlated with abnormal short volume, no evidence of informed short selling is found. Higher level of pre-announcement abnormal short selling is positively correlated to default risk and also explained by the incentives of short sellers to short more when past returns are negative. Furthermore, increase in short selling that is preceded by credit watch placement is more pronounced before credit rating downgrades. Moreover, the evidence shows …

The Effect Of Female Board On Firm Value Evidence From The Asia Pacific, Tanyatorn Kulalert
The Effect Of Female Board On Firm Value Evidence From The Asia Pacific, Tanyatorn Kulalert
Chulalongkorn University Theses and Dissertations (Chula ETD)
This paper examines the relationship between board gender diversity and firm value of companies in the Asia-Pacific from 2011 to 2020. Fixed effects and two-stage least squares are employed to deal with endogeneity. We find that increasing female directors to the board has a positive and significant effect on firm value as measured by Tobin’s Q. The result suggests that independent directors have a positive and significant impact on firm value. However, when the board is composed of independent directors, appointing female directors decreases the firm's value owing to over monitoring. Furthermore, the positive effect of female directors appears to …

Chulalongkorn University Theses and Dissertations (Chula ETD)
This research explores the effect of government's COVID-19 response policy on stock market volatility. We explain the stock market volatility dynamics via the index that measures the strict level of government response’s policy to COVID-19. Using EGARCH (1,1) model to identify stock market volatility from daily stock market return of 68 countries and apply the Arellano–Bond two-step system GMM estimator for dynamic panel data analysis, we found that the stock market volatility in the COVID-19 period can be reduced by the government policy response to COVID-19. Furthermore, after dividing the index into 3 types, all types of policy also reduce …
Examination Of Facebook's Announcement Effect On Metaverse Tokens, Chalakorn Sathiwas

The Evidence Of The Beta Anomaly In The European Reit Market, Nutpapol Tantratananuwat
The Evidence Of The Beta Anomaly In The European Reit Market, Nutpapol Tantratananuwat
Chulalongkorn University Theses and Dissertations (Chula ETD)
This paper finds empirical evidence of the beta anomaly in the European REIT market in the period 2012 – 2021. The alpha of a low minus high beta strategy is positive and statistically significant which can interpret that the low beta REITs have a higher risk-adjusted return than high beta REITs. To examine the explanation behind the beta anomaly, the controlling variables which may cause the beta anomaly including the lottery-like stock return factor, the skewness factor, and the institutional ownership factor are added into the Fama-French 3-factor model. For the result, only the institutional ownership factor which refers to …
