We propose an international asset pricing model in a two-country framework where trading in the foreign market encounters barriers to portfolio flows and short-sale constraints. Under ownership restrictions, free assets are priced with a global risk premium whereas the restricted assets command...

The paper tests the effect of competition on bank risk-taking for a sample of up to 800 banks worldwide over the period 1995-2010. Following the theoretical literature on bank competition and risk more closely than previous empirical research, we measure competition at the bank level and...

[...] Conventional wisdom finds that international banking law is an applied field. In contrast to a traditional field like constitutional law, in which well-developed bodies of literature exist that draw upon feminist legal theory, critical race theory, law and economics, and critical legal...

Viewing the development of the standard international tax neutrality discussion as being historically fairly limited because Musgrave's conclusions, rather than basic definitions, served as the undisputed baseline, in a previous article I reconsidered the classic international tax neutrality...

Tax policy in general and international income tax policy in particular has long been a subject of discussion and argument by tax philosophers, economists, and lawyers. Theories have often been introduced to support the establishment of new tax systems, to justify existing ones, or to call for...

This paper theoretically and empirically reevaluates price policy associated with deflation using the Balassa-Samuelson theory (Balassa (1964), Samuelson (1964)). The theoretical model developed in this paper shows the relative price level (or real exchange rate) between two countries is...

Using panel data from 23 developed countries over the 2001-2011 period and employing the Arellano-Bover/Blundell-Bond dynamic panel estimation technique, we show that the source country capital gains tax has a negative and statistically significant impact on foreign portfolio equity holdings. On...

We examine the predilection for private bonds over bank financing (debt structure) for emerging markets within the frameworks of both transaction cost economics and a transparency explanation, emphasizing the distinction between public monitoring (bonds) and private monitoring (banks), as well...
