For decades, financial institutions have been very motivated in creating structured high-yield financial products, especially in the economic environment of lower interest rates. Reverse convertible notes (RCNs) are the type of financial instruments, which in recent years first in Europe and...

Purpose – This editorial, the second of a two-part series, proposes a new measure of risk for analyzing highly non-normal (i.e. asymmetric and long-tailed) random variables in the context of both investment and insurance portfolios. The proposed measure replaces the p-norm-based definition of...

We employ a wavelet approach and conduct a time-frequency analysis of dynamic correlations between pairs of key traded assets (gold, oil, and stocks) covering the period from 1987 to 2012. The analysis is performed on both intra-day and daily data. We show that heterogeneity in correlations...

The study analyses Granger-causality between interest rate (IR) and share prices (SP) for India by using monthly data covering the period of 1990M1 to 2009M3. The time-frequency relationship between IR and SP was decomposed through continuous wavelet approach for the first time in the study. We...

Forecasting urban water demand can be of use in the management of water utilities. For example, activities such as water-budgeting, operation and maintenance of pumps, wells, reservoirs, and mains require quantitative estimations of water resources at specified future dates. In this study, we...

We propose an iterative algorithm for the minimization of a ℓ <Subscript>1</Subscript>-norm penalized least squares functional, under additional linear constraints. The algorithm is fully explicit: it uses only matrix multiplications with the three matrices present in the problem (in the linear constraint, in the...</subscript>
