We aim to provide a comprehensive overview of the past, present, and future development of environmental related topics in Economics and Finance. In this regard, Environmental Finance (EF)- and Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG)-related literature is collected and analysed. The paper...

This study conducts an investigation of intraday time-series momentum across four Chinese commodity futures contracts: copper, steel, soybean, and soybean meal. Our results indicate that the first half-hour return positively predicts the last half-hour return across all four futures....

Microscopic simulation models are often evaluated based on visual inspection of the results. This paper presents formal econometric techniques to compare microscopic simulation (MS) models with real-life data. A related result is a methodology to compare different MS models with each other. For...

This paper illustrates how to compare different microscopic simulation (MS) models and how to compare a MS model with real data in case the parameters of interest are estimated non- or semiparametrically. As examples we investigate the marginal single-period probability density function of stock...

Concerning the essence of risk, a joint replenishment and delivery scheduling problem with fuzzy cost-related parameters and random number of imperfect quality items is developed to make it suitable for the inherent uncertainties of procurement-shipment process. The mathematical modeling-based...

The conventional momentum strategy performs poorly overall in China, because stock prices behave very differently when markets are open for trading versus when they are closed. Stocks that are past intraday (overnight) winners persistently outperform those that are past intraday (overnight)...

We address an important empirical question as to which firm-level characteristic best predicts stock returns in the UK equity market. To answer this question, we employ a semiparametric characteristic-based factor model first introduced by Connor, Hagmann and Linton (2012). We also augment their...
