This paper introduces a new multivariate model for time series count data. The Multivariate Autoregressive Conditional Poisson model (MACP) makes it possible to deal withissues of discreteness, overdispersion (variance greater thant then mean) and both auto- and crosscorrelation. We model counts...

This paper describes Stata command lclogit2, an enhanced version of lclogit (Pacifico and Yoo, 2013). Like its predecessor, lclogit2 uses the Expectation-Maximization (EM) algorithm to estimate latent class conditional logit (LCL) models. But it executes the EM algorithm's core algebraic...

We estimated the effects of Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) scores on the credit ratings of firms in the sectors of manufacturing, mining and quarrying, wholesale and retail trade, information and communication, and real estate activities and located in North America, Europe, and...

This article develops a Bayesian approach for estimating panel quantile regression with binary outcomes in the presence of correlated random effects. We construct a working likelihood using an asymmetric Laplace (AL) error distribution and combine it with suitable prior distributions to obtain...

In this paper we want to discuss macroscopic and microscopicproperties of financial markets. By analyzing quantitatively a database consisting of 13 minute per minute recorded financial time series, we identify some macroscopic statistical properties of the corresponding markets, with a special...
