Resumen: La teoría de precios por arbitraje establece que el retorno esperado de un portafolio de activos está relacionado con factores que caracterizan la economía y se puede asociar a variables macroeconómicas. En este estudio se realiza una contrastación empírica de la teoría de...

Resumen: Se presenta una metodología reciente para la detección del contagio financiero basada en coeficientes de dependencia asintótica. Este enfoque, sin alejarse de las condiciones teóricas del problema, logra sortear las críticas estadísticas a las que frecuentemente están expuestas...

This is the story of the Princeton Wine Group, a group whose membership has been relatively constant for almost 40 years. This group has enjoyed 244 blind tastings involving 1,708 different wines. A statistical analysis was performed at each tasting examining whether participants ranked the...

Using confidential microdata, we show that shocks to primary dealers' risk-bearing constraints have significant effects on the US Treasury securities market. In response to tighter constraints, dealers reduce their Treasury positions, triggering a reduction in aggregate turnover and an increase...

Understanding how price-volume information determines future price movement is important for market makers who frequently place orders on both buy and sell sides, and for traders to split meta-orders to reduce price impact. Given the complex non-linear nature of the problem, we consider the...

We use the term structure of bank CD rates to examine whether maturity-transformation risk is priced into the rates banks offer customers. We find that depositors pay a significant cost for the liquidity provided by bank deposits. This cost is strongly related to the amount of...

Although many studies in macroeconomics have examined the role of insurance in the presence of income risk, whether aggregate shocks are insurable has not been sufficiently investigated. We present a simple two-period general equilibrium model to show the conditions under which insurance against...

The pace of biodiversity loss requires drastic shifts in conservation efforts that carry substantial costs. We investigate how the financial market prices such conservation costs exploiting the "Green Shield Action," a major regulatory initiative launched by the Chinese central government in...

We evaluate the performance of the Conditional Autoencoder (CAE) model by Gu et al. (2021) in an international context and under economic constraints, such as the exclusion of microcap and illiquid firms, and accounting for transaction costs. The CAE model leverages latent factors and factor...
