Present paper shows that credit regarding job creation is ineffective in the 2000s, while it was effective in 1980s and 1990s. This paper attempts to support the view of (Bouis et al., 2013), that recently growth is sluggish, in spite of the massive monetary stimulus. Further, it will support...

In this paper is shown that financial deepening is good for job creation up to a critical point, beyond which unemployment starts rising. The reason can be the heavy debt the private sector is bearing, so that business sector becomes unable to pay off debts, and thus companies go bankrupt...

Some argue too-big-to-fail (TBTF) status increases the value of the largest banks. In contrast, we find that the value of the largest banks is negatively related to asset size in normal times, but not during the financial crisis when TBTF status was most valuable. Further, shareholders lose when...

Information asymmetries are important in theory but difficult to identify in practice. We estimate the empirical importance of adverse selection and moral hazard in a consumer credit market using a new field experiment methodology. We randomized 58,000 direct mail offers issued by a major South...

We investigate whether the value of large banks, defined as banks with assets in excess of the Dodd-Frank threshold for enhanced supervision, increases with the size of their assets using Tobin's q and market-to-book as our valuation measures. Many argue that large banks receive subsidies from...

This research paper aims to investigate the profitability of five popular variations of moving averages: simple (also referred to as arithmetic), exponential, triangular, variable, and weighted as the main tool of technical analysis on the end of the day data on Indian market index S&P CNX Nifty...

Analyses of zombie firms have emphasised the role of bank financing as the reason for zombie survival. This conclusion was made despite no comparative analysis of the sources of external finance for zombie firms. This paper provides the first analysis of that sort using Finnish data....

This paper examines the concept of inflation persistence in macroeconomic theory. It begins with a definition of persistence, emphasizing the difference between reduced]form and structural persistence. It then examines a number of empirical measures of reduced]form persistence, considering the...

This article uses the recent developments in the econometrics of non-stationary dynamic panel data to re-examine the relationship between external and internal performance measures of the firm. A sample of 420 U.S. firms over the period (1990-2004) is used in the empirical analysis. In addition,...

For a large sample of U.S. companies, we compare the cost of equity estimates of a two-factor international CAPM with those of the single-factor domestic CAPM and the single-factor global CAPM. Our purpose is to assess how much difference it makes for U.S. firms to use the two-factor ICAPM...
