The rise of Fintech in the past decade has received growing scholarly attention. This paper surveys Fintech-related articles published in leading finance, accounting, and management journals from 2010 to 2019. It aims to generate a taxonomy of Fintech and accumulate knowledge in the fields of...

Applying the approach used by Eisenberg (2007) to derive the marginal price of risk for an expected value maximizing manager who has a Var constraint, I derive the marginal price of risk given a Cvar (Acerbi and Tasche, 2001), also known as an expected shortfall constraint. Despite the criticism...

Traditional capital budgeting models price only systemic risk. However, insurers and banks seek to manage their total risk. With the help of modern information systems and information technology, bankers and insurers are able to get timely information on the risk exposures of their multiple...

This paper proposes a simple and crude way of approximating the XVA sensitivities. In short, the idea is simply to recycle the existing base simulated portfolio values for the bumped ones. This is done by re-simulating the risk factors for the bumped market and finding out which other base state...

There is an increasing consensus within banks, on the need to recognize the impact of rising capital requirements on their derivative business in the form of capital valuation adjustment (KVA). However, because of varied reasons, there are still concerns over how exactly KVA should be computed,...

The existing replication policies at top finance journals are far weaker than the policies at top economics journals. This paper explores both the costs and benefits of having a stronger replication policy in the context of my failed 2010 initiative to develop a unified policy across all top...

Does risk shifting incentives or risk management incentives dominate when firms rollover large amounts of maturing debt? The empirical evidence supports the risk management hypothesis by identifying a hump-shaped relation between long-term debt maturity and firm risk. Using...

Credit (CVA), Debit (DVA) and Funding Valuation Adjustments (FVA) are now familiar valuation adjustments made to the value of a portfolio of derivatives to account for credit risks and funding costs. However, recent changes in the regulatory regime and the increases in regulatory capital...

This paper reviews the recent literature on CAPM and APT, and reaches a surprising conclusion. While APT died a silent death, CAPM's progeny is alive and well! We provide a short review of the recent literature on the conditional CAPMs, intertemporal CAPMs, and higher-order Co-Moments-based...

Islamic financial institutions have relied for decades on margin-based contracts to provide financing for the business sector, despite the basic idea that Islamic finance is expected to provide an equity-based or a profit and loss sharing (PLS) contract. This fact raises the need to encourage...
