German Abstract:Die vorliegende Arbeit untersucht, wie sich Angebots-, Nachfrage- und geldpolitische Schocks aus den Vereinigten Staaten auf Deutschland übertragen. Dabei wird ein so genanntes factor-augmented vector autoregressive model (FAVAR) auf einen neu zusammengestellten Datensatz mit...

This paper has studied the monetary policy in Korea with a time varying VAR model using four key macroeconomic variables. First, inclusion of the exchange rate was a crucial factor in evaluating Korean monetary policy since the monetary policy demonstrated sensitivity to exchange rate movements...

In the large context of valuation adjustments, collectively referred to as “XVA”, we treat replication strategies as a unique way to calculate fair price equations. We consider different replication strategies (Piterbarg, Burgard-Kjaer and our contribution) and identify the valuation...

We introduce a three-factor model of electricity spot prices, consisting of a deterministic seasonality and trend function as well as short- and long-term stochastic components, and derive a formula for futures prices. The long-term component is modelled as a Lévy process with increments...

In this paper, we develop a series of approximations for a fast analytical pricing of European constant maturity swap (CMS) products, such as CMS swaps, CMS caps/floors, and CMS spread options, for the LIBOR Market Model (LMM) with stochastic volatility. The derived formulas can also be used for...

We revisit the cross-currency LIBOR Market Model armed with the technique of Markovian projection. We derive an efficient approximation for FX options and show how the FX skew can be modeled consistently with the interest rate skew in a common multifactor model

This study examines the purchasing power parity (PPP) approach to the determination of exchange rate misalignment in Nigeria by using two variants of the PPP: the absolute PPP (aPPP) and the relative PPP (rPPP). Data on the Nigerian Naira to US Dollar ( /$), British Pound ( /£) and Chinese Yuan...

Marketing mix modeling has existed for decades now. Everyone has been using it, some tapped its potential with enormous success while others are yet to see its true potential. Rapidly changing marketing environment, consumer dynamics and multi touch points have made it even more complex to get...

Wicksell (1896) and Lindahl (1919) analyzed the public provision of public goods through parliamentary negotiation. Roemer (2010, 2019) applied Kant’s (1785) categorical imperative to the private provision of public goods by voluntary contributions. They coincide in yielding efficient...
