This paper presents further empirical evidence on the relationship between black market and official exchange rates in six emerging economies (Iran, India, Indonesia, Korea, Pakistan, and Thailand). First, it applies both time series techniques and heterogeneous panel methods to test for the...

This paper suggests a simple method based on a Chebyshev approximation at Chebyshev nodes to approximate partial differential equations. It consists in determining the value function by using a set of nodes and basis functions. We provide two examples: pricing a European option and determining...

This paper estimates a reduced-form model to assess the credit risk of General Insurance (GI) non-life firms in the UK.

We document immediate pass through into primary markets, particularly for eligible issuers. Improvements continue...
