This study aims to examine whether funds with illiquid assets exhibit stronger sensitivity of redemption outflows to bad past performance than funds with liquid assets. An important aspect of our study is whether large outflows should damage future fund performance in illiquid funds more than in...

We identified the relationship between purchase and redemption behavior of flow-return and flow-fund characteristics within different group investors by using Quantile regression, we found that insured investors have reflect better performance than non-insured investor in our study. However,...

System characteristics of a two-unit repairable system are studied from a Bayesian viewpoint with different types of priors assumed for unknown parameters, in which the coverage factor for an operating unit failure is possibly considered. Time to failure and time to repair of the operating units...

This study statistically examines an availability system with reboot delay, standby switching failures and an unreliable repair facility, which consists of two active components and one warm standby. The time-to-failure and the reboot time are assumed to be exponentially distributed. The repair...

This study employs Patton's (2006) conditional copula framework to model dynamic conditional joint distribution with currency data for Taiwan and its trading counterparties. Empirical findings suggest that the exchange rate of Taiwan tends to display high tail dependence with those of Asian...

This study proposes a wavelet-based multi-resolution BEKK-GARCH model to investigate spillover effects across financial markets. Compared with traditional multivariate GARCH analysis, the proposed model can identify or decompose cross-market spillovers on multiple resolutions. Taking two highly...
