Recently, there has been an upsurge of interest on the possibility of confusing long memory and structural changes in level. Many studies have documented the fact that when a stationary short memory process is contaminated by level shifts the estimate of the fractional differencing parameter is...

Recently, there has been an upsurge of interest on the possibility of confusing long memory and structural changes in level. Many studies have shown that when a stationary short memory process is contaminated by level shifts the estimate of the fractional differencing parameter is biased away...

Real option theory has for some decades been used in forest economics to analyse decision problems which involve irreversible and stochastic decisions. One such decision is when to harvest a stand and with what species to regenerate. The latter decision can be postponed for some time, making a...

This paper extends the literature on optimal tree harvesting assuming stochastic prices. With volatile prices, the value of a stand of trees is increased when harvesting dates are flexible, depending on wood volume and product prices of the day. Flexibility adds value because a forest owner can...

This study deals with the pricing and hedging of inflation-indexed bonds. Under foreign exchange analogy we model the … for the factor process. Then, we perform a novel hedging analysis where our objective is to replicate an indexed bond of a … given maturity by trading a portfolio of nominal bonds. This analysis leads to a hedging criterion based on a set of …
