Benchmarking And Currency Risk, Massimo Massa, Yanbo Wang, Hong Zhang
Benchmarking And Currency Risk, Massimo Massa, Yanbo Wang, Hong Zhang
Research Collection Lee Kong Chian School Of Business
We show that the currency risk embedded in the benchmarks of international mutual funds negatively affects fund performance. More specifically, a high benchmark-implied currency risk induces funds to invest in markets with less volatile currencies, leading to a higher degree of currency concentration in portfolio holdings. This currency concentration, however, departs from the optimal equity allocation strategy across countries and reduces fund performance. We document that funds resorting to high currency concentrations underperform funds with low currency concentrations by as much as 1%-2% per year.
Two Essays On Investor Emotions And Their Effects In Financial Markets, Jiancheng Shen
Two Essays On Investor Emotions And Their Effects In Financial Markets, Jiancheng Shen
Finance Theses & Dissertations
This dissertation provides empirical evidences on media-based investor emotions in predicting stock return, conditional volatility, and stock and bond return comovements.
We first studied the interaction between US media content and the US stock market returns and volatility. We utilize propriety investor sentiment measures developed by Thompson Reuters MarketPsych. We select four measures of investor sentiment that reflect both pessimism and optimism of small investors. Our objective is two-fold. First, we examine the ability of these sentiment measures to predict market returns. For this purpose, we use dynamic Vector Auto-Regressive models. Second, we are interested in exploring the effects of …
Two Essays On Short Selling, Zhaobo Zhu
Two Essays On Short Selling, Zhaobo Zhu
Finance Theses & Dissertations
This dissertation provides some new evidence that the information contained in short selling is informative about future returns, confirming the role of short sellers in the price discovery process.
The first essay examines the cross-sectional relation between the change in short interest and expected stock returns. NYSE/AMEX stocks with large decreases (increases) in short interest over past medium-term horizon experience significant and positive (negative) abnormal returns. Moreover, the positive abnormal returns are larger in absolute value and are more persistent than negative abnormal returns. The return spread between bottom and top deciles is economically and statistically significant and persistent. The …
Essays On The Equity Risk Premium, Mohamed Mehdi Rahoui
Essays On The Equity Risk Premium, Mohamed Mehdi Rahoui
Finance Theses & Dissertations
The equity risk premium (ERP) is an essential component of any asset pricing model both for academics and practitioners alike. Nevertheless, the financial literature does not accord much attention to the ERP estimation issues (Damodaran, 2015). The first chapter of this dissertation gives a summary of the recent literature review on the subject of the ERP. The second chapter explores four of the most commonly cited models in literature for estimating the ERP: the Historical Mean of Realized Returns Model (HMRRM), the Dividend Discount Model (DDM), the Free Cash Flow Model (FCFM), and the Sharpe Ratio Model (SRM). The results …

Should Hong Kong Maintain A Linked Exchange Rate System?, Hoi Yin Tsoi
Should Hong Kong Maintain A Linked Exchange Rate System?, Hoi Yin Tsoi
Lingnan Journal of Banking, Finance and Economics
The linked exchange rate was implemented in 1983. This paper finds that over these 32 years, this system did bring lots of benefits to Hong Kong. Nevertheless, as Hong Kong is a vastly different place now relative to what it was 32 years ago, the costs for the adoption of the link outweigh the benefits so this system is no longer suitable for Hong Kong. It is suggested that in order to serve the best interest of Hong Kong, it should not maintain the linked exchange rate system and should switch to the managed floating exchange rate system.
Empirical Study : Shanghai-Hong Kong Stock Connection Sign Of Efficiency Improvement?, Ming Cheung Fok
Empirical Study : Shanghai-Hong Kong Stock Connection Sign Of Efficiency Improvement?, Ming Cheung Fok
Lingnan Journal of Banking, Finance and Economics
Stock market connection encourages local corporations cross-listing in overseas stock markets which will, theoretically, enhance the information flow between countries and the stock market efficiency. In view of a closed economy like China and a free economy like Hong Kong, the announcement of Shanghai-Hong Kong stock connection program seems to be a great opportunity for testing the well-known Efficiency Market Hypothesis (EMH). Employing Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) and the random walk model suggested by previous studies, this paper will present the comparison of market performance before and after the connection as evidences for the hypothesis testing.

The Use Of Catastrophe Bonds As A Means Of Economic Development In Emerging Economies, Lauren Mattucci
The Use Of Catastrophe Bonds As A Means Of Economic Development In Emerging Economies, Lauren Mattucci
Honors Theses and Capstones
Catastrophe bonds offer a way for entities located in natural disaster prone regions to safely and efficiently transfer the risk of insuring property to the financial markets and subsequently, create a financially attractive environment for insurers and investors. The opportunity for investors to utilize modeled loss analytical platforms such as those created by AIR, Risk Management Solutions, and EQECAT, could be used to bridge the growing gap in emerging economies between economic losses created by natural disasters and insured losses. Bridging this insurance gap in emerging economies could have positive global implications for the insurance industry, global trade, foreign direct …

الاقتصاد البسيط… واشكالية تزايد الاستهلاك البذخي في العراق انموذجا للمدة 2004-2014, غسان طارق ظاهر
Muthanna Journal of Administrative and Economics Sciences
المستخلصالاستهلاك سلوك طبيعي للإنسان للمحافظة على وجوده وتلبية حاجاته وإذا تخطى الاحتياجات المطلوبة فأنه يعد سلوكا سلبيا تعدى مرحلة الحاجة المعقولة والمبررة من سلع وخدمات أساسية إلى أخرى كمالية، فالعراق يعد واحداً من تلك الدول الذي انفتح على العالم الخارجي بعد تغيير النظام السياسي عام 2003، والسماح له بتصدير النفط دون قيد او شرط، وفتح الحدود امام مختلف انماط التجارة، مما سمح بتدفق السلع والخدمات من والى العراق، فضلا عن الرغبة المفرطة للأسر العراقية نحو الاستهلاك كردة فعل لما عاشه الشعب العراقي من ظروف قاسية اقتصادية واجتماعية ونفسية، لذا يحاول الباحث تسليط الضوء على ظاهرة تزايد الاستهلاك البذخي واثره على …

Brokers And Investment Advisors, Nathaniel Phillip Graham
Brokers And Investment Advisors, Nathaniel Phillip Graham
Theses and Dissertations--Finance and Quantitative Methods
Brokers and investment advisors are a large and important part of the financial industry. Using a novel data set that includes the majority of the financial advisory industry, in this dissertation I document the size of the financial advisory industry and the prevalence of customer complaints in the industry, which I use as a proxy for misconduct. I then test for two potential drivers of advisors’ misconduct: professional standards in the form of fiduciary responsibilities and influence from social networks. I find that variation in fiduciary duties—specifically fiduciary versus suitability standards— does not appear to affect advisors’ propensity for misconduct. …
Ipo Performance And Trading Around Lock-Up Expiration, Yuchen Wang
Ipo Performance And Trading Around Lock-Up Expiration, Yuchen Wang
Dissertations and Theses Collection (Open Access)
During the lock-up period, company insiders are prohibited from selling their shares for a set period immediately after initial public offerings (IPOs), usually 180 days. This strict prohibition limits the borrowing of securities by short sellers within this period. Therefore, upon reaching the lock-up expiry date, the short-sale constraint may be loosened and new investors may rush into the stock market, which affects asset price and stock return. This thesis focuses on the IPOs’ performance during the lock-up period and the reasons for the unusual performance. The first section commences by questioning the role of the short seller and its …

Shadow Banking And Regulation In China And Other Developing Countries, Steven L. Schwarcz
Shadow Banking And Regulation In China And Other Developing Countries, Steven L. Schwarcz
Faculty Scholarship
The rapid but largely unregulated growth in shadow banking in developing countries such as China can jeopardize financial stability. This article discusses that growth and argues that a regulatory balance is needed to help protect financial stability while preserving shadow banking as an important channel of alternative funding. The article also analyzes how that regulation could be designed.
The Liquidity Crisis, Investor Sentiment, And Reit Returns And Volatility, Daniel Huerta, Peter V. Egly, Diego Escobari
The Liquidity Crisis, Investor Sentiment, And Reit Returns And Volatility, Daniel Huerta, Peter V. Egly, Diego Escobari
School of Economics and Finance Faculty Publications
The real estate investment trust (REIT) industry experienced a liquidity crisis resulting from reduced access to credit commitments as banks were restoring their balance sheets during the 2007–2009 financial crisis. Employing generalized autoregressive conditional heteroscedasticity (GARCH) models, we examine the impact of the liquidity crisis and investor sentiment on REIT returns and volatility over the December 2001 to February 2013 period. We find that the liquidity crisis negatively impacts REIT returns and helps explain increases in volatility; this finding is robust to multiple specifications. We show that investor sentiment is a significant factor in the REIT return-generating process with institutional …

Muthanna Journal of Administrative and Economics Sciences
المستخلص: نظرا للأهمية التي يمثلها صافي الربح بالنسبة للأطراف ذات العلاقة بالمؤسسة تلجأ الادارة الى ممارسة نوع من التأثير المتعمد والتلاعب بالأرباح المعلنة من خلال استخدام أساليب حقيقية أو محاسبية سواء كانت في اطار المعايير والمبادئ المحاسبية أو خارجها وذلك سعيا منها وراء تحقيق أهداف ورغبات معينة, لذلك فان اعتماد الأطراف ذات المصلحة على رقم الربح المحاسبي وحدة دون الأخذ بعين الاعتبار العوامل الأخرى التي تؤدي الى تخفيض مستوى جودة الأرباح من شأنه أن يؤدي الى اتخاذ قرارات غير عقلانية بسبب وجود تحيز في قياس الدخل من طرف الادارة, وبالرغم من الدور الذي يمكن أن تلعبه المعايير المحاسبية في الحد …

Two Essays In Finance And Economics: “Investment Opportunities In Commodity And Stock Markets For G7 Countries” And “Global And Local Factors Affecting Sovereign Yield Spreads”, Selma Izadi
LSU New Orleans Theses and Dissertations
In chapter 1, I investigate the return links and dynamic conditional correlations between the equity and commodity returns for G7 countries from 2000:01 to 2014:10. The commodity futures include BCOM Index which contains the futures and spot price of 22 commodities, Brent and Crude oil futures, gold and silver futures, Wheat, Corn and Soybean futures and CRB index. The finding indicates that during the full sample period GOLD, WHEAT and CORN have the smallest dynamic conditional correlations with all the Equity indexes. In addition, the correlations between the GOLD/Equity pairs are negative during the financial crisis. This fact indicates the …

Evaluating The Impacts Of Respondent Errors In Arms: A Case Of Farm Service Agency Loans, Louise Nicole Mcminn
Graduate Theses and Dissertations
Many studies have used the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s (USDA) Agricultural Resource Management Survey (ARMS) to research various aspects involving the agricultural sector in the United States. Since nonresponse and inaccurate reporting may cause significant bias in statistical analysis, research was conducted to determine the magnitude of response error on the farm debt section of the ARMS Phase III. A multinomial logit model identified demographic, structural, and financial characteristics of FSA Farm Loan Program (FLP) borrowers who refused to indicate if they had end of year farm debt, or who accurately or inaccurately classified their farm operations as having end …
