This paper provides evidence on the interaction between hedge funds' performance and their market liquidity risk and funding liquidity risk. We demonstrate that funding liquidity risk is an important determinant of hedge fund performance. Hedge funds with high loadings on the funding liquidity...

This paper demonstrates that liquidity risk as measured by the covariation of fund returns with unexpected changes in aggregate liquidity is an important predictor of hedge-fund performance. The results show that funds that significantly load on liquidity risk subsequently outperform low-loading...

This paper demonstrates that liquidity risk as measured by the covariation of fund returns with unexpected changes in aggregate liquidity is an important determinant in the cross- section of hedge-fund returns. The results show that funds that significantly load on liquidity risk subsequently...

Thinly traded securities exist in both emerging and well developed markets. However, plausible estimations of market risk measures for portfolios with infrequently traded securities have not been explored in the literature. We propose a methodology to calculate market risk measures based on the...

The convenience and rapidity of financial leasing modes in the peer-to-peer (P2P) platform enable small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) to solve financing problems. The core of risk management in the P2P platform is to improve the quality of the docking assets. Therefore, the purpose of this...

The vast majority of approaches to risk management, hedging, or portfolio planningassume that some model is given. However, under model risk, the true data gener-ating process is not known. The focus of this paper is on problems related to thehedging of derivative contracts. We explain the main...

Starting from the Merton framework for firm defaults, we provide theanalytics and robustness of the relationship between defaultprobabilities and default correlations. We show that loans with higherdefault probabilities will not only have higher variances but also highercorrelations with other...

The paper investigates how buyer-supplier firm-specific relationships affect security prices. Starting from the empirical inconsistencies associated with some standard structural models we propose a structural model of firm dependence in a vertically connected network of firms based on cash flow...
