Cash flow and discount rate risk in up and down markets : what is actually priced?
Botshekan, Mahmoud; Kräussl, Roman; Lucas, André - 2010
We test whether asymmetric preferences for losses versus gains as in Ang, Chen, and Xing (2006) also affect the pricing of cash flow versus discount rate news as in Campbell and Vuolteenaho (2004). We construct a new four-fold beta decomposition, distinguishing cash flow and discount rate betas...

We investigate the effects of introducing a central clearing counterparty (CCP) on securities prices by adopting as an experimental construct the 2009 CCP reform in three Nordic markets. We find that, relative to other European economies, these countries experience market-adjusted equity returns...

Common risk factors in equity markets
Atanasov, Victoria - 2014 - This version: May 26, 2014
Empirical measures of world consumption growth risk have failed to rationalize the cross-section of country equity returns. We propose a new factor, termed "the global consumption factor", to explain the patterns in risk premiums on international equity markets. We identify this factor as the...

The size effect in value and momentum factors : implications for the cross-section of international stock returns
Atanasov, Victoria; Nitschka, Thomas - 2013

Need for speed? : exchange latency and liquidity
