In this study, we aim to discover whether the performance of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) can lead to abnormal returns, i.e., whether the execution of CSR can enhance the generation of abnormal returns. We sort companies according to their ratings in each sector (environmental, social,...

Numerous studies investigate the relationships between fund manager characteristics and fund performance. However, most evaluate fund performance by using traditional factor alphas, such as the Fama–French–Carhart four- and six-factor alphas. In the present study, we analyze data from...

Taiwan Top 50 Tracker Fund (TTT) is the first Exchange Traded Fund (ETF) in Taiwan. This study investigates the impact of TTT on the liquidity of the constituent stocks. The empirical result coincides with the expectation of arbitrage hypothesis that the liquidity of the constituents is...

In this paper, we apply the asymptotic theory of panel cointegration developed by Kao and Chiang (1997) to Coe and Helpman's (1995) international R&D spillovers regression. The OLS with bias-correction, the fully-modified (FM) and the dynamic OLS (DOLS) estimations produce different predictions...

The main contribution of this paper is to add to the literature by suggesting a dynamic OLS (DOLS) estimator and providing a serious comparison of the finite sample properties of the OLS, fully modified OLS (FMOLS), and DOLS estimators in panel cointegrated regression models. Monte Carlo results...

This paper investigates the performances of GMM estimates using kernel methods with and without prewhitening and the VARHAC method in a representative agent exchange economy. A Monte Carlo study is conducted to evaluate the issues of estimating the spectral density functions, e.g., parametric...

Are the behavioral biases of fund managers affected by capital flows? This paper examines the relationship between fund flows and the disposition behavior of fund managers. The disposition biases of fund managers are significantly negatively correlated with unexpected fund flows, but...
