Paper analyzes how present-bias affects carbon emissions and proposes a method to mitigate it.
It will be difficult to gain the agreement of all the actors on any proposal for climate change management, if universality and fairness are not considered. In this work, a universal measure of emissions to be applied at the international level is proposed, based on a modification of the Greenhouse Gas Intensity (GHG-I…
Model predicts carbon price for green tech adoption.
Study shows ethanol blends and incentives can significantly reduce transportation carbon emissions.
Climate change is widely expected to increase weather related damage and the insurance claims that result from it. This will increase insurance premiums, in a way that is independent of a customer's contribution to the causes of climate change. Insurance provides a financial mechanism that mitigates some of the consequ…
A global agreement on how to reduce and cap human footprint, especially their GHG emissions, is very unlikely in near future. At the same time, bilateral agreements would be inefficient because of their neural and balanced nature. Therefore, unilateral actions would have attracted attention as a practical option. Howev…
Variable renewables can avoid market value decline with policy changes.
Due to the threat of climate change, a transition from a fossil-fuel based system to one based on zero-carbon is required. However, this is not as simple as instantaneously closing down all fossil fuel energy generation and replacing them with renewable sources -- careful decisions need to be taken to ensure rapid but …
First-best climate policy is a uniform carbon tax which gradually rises over time. Civil servants have complicated climate policy to expand bureaucracies, politicians to create rents. Environmentalists have exaggerated climate change to gain influence, other activists have joined the climate bandwagon. Opponents to cli…
Model predicts EU carbon prices using market and political factors.
Proposes CEP to better represent financial products' carbon impact.
LLMs can identify tax strategies, potentially revolutionizing tax enforcement.
Flow taxes and stock taxes preserve portfolio neutrality under specific conditions.
The study assesses carbon risk in investment portfolios and proposes new management strategies.
Proposes a fix for IRS calculation of Obamacare tax credits.
Study analyzes carbon footprint of 1,417 ML models on Hugging Face.
We introduce two models of taxation, the latent and natural tax processes, which have both been used to represent loss-carry-forward taxation on the capital of an insurance company. In the natural tax process, the tax rate is a function of the current level of capital, whereas in the latent tax process, the tax rate is…
Paper uses 2-step Gradient Boosting to predict VAT tax gap.
This paper introduces a new market-based carbon risk measure for portfolio optimization.
Proposes a Carbon Equivalence Principle for financial products to align incentives and drive sustainability.
Germany's tax admin costs likely exceed 20% of total revenue, requiring system improvement.
We model the quantities appearing in Internal Revenue Service (IRS) tax guidance for calculating the health insurance premium tax credit created by the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, also called Obamacare. We ask the question of whether there is a procedure, computable by hand, which can calculate the appr…
Research analyzes Georgia's tax system and suggests improvements.
Study improves carbon price forecasting using quantile regression and feature selection.
Study finds tax avoidance and IT issues hinder revenue in Gombe state.
In this paper, we propose stock trading based on the average tax basis. Recall that when selling stocks, capital gain should be taxed while capital loss can earn certain tax rebate. We learn the optimal trading strategies with and without considering taxes by reinforcement learning. The result shows that tax ignorance …
The Tobin tax is an often discussed method to tame speculation and get a source of income. The discussion is especially heated when the financial markets are in crisis. In this article we refer to foreign exchange markets. The Tobin tax should be a small international tax affecting all currency transactions and thus co…
I explain the root of persistent failure of efforts to remove tax-induced distortions of economic incentives. It lies in FUNDAMENTAL IMPOSSIBILITY of objectively evaluating tax base. Distortions can be entirely avoided in the sector of publicly traded corporations. Evaluation can be bypassed by taxing it in shares (to …
Develops a method to optimize tax codes with practical constraints.
A dynamic agent model is introduced with an annual random wealth multiplicative process followed by taxes paid according to a linear wealth-dependent tax rate. If poor agents pay higher tax rates than rich agents, eventually all wealth becomes concentrated in the hands of a single agent. By contrast, if poor agents are…
AI-driven tax policies improve economic equality and productivity.
This study analyzes how carbon pricing affects credit risk measures in a portfolio.
Extends wealth tax neutrality framework to stochastic volatility and non-homothetic preferences.
Generative models improve carbon storage site prediction using Bayesian inversion.
We develop a model of tax evasion based on the Ising model. We augment the model using an appropriate enforcement mechanism that may allow policy makers to curb tax evasion. With a certain probability tax evaders are subject to an audit. If they get caught they behave honestly for a certain number of periods. Simulatin…
This paper combines and develops the models in Lastrapes (2002) and Mankiw & Weil (1989), which enables us to analyze the effects of interest rate and population growth shocks on housing price in one integrated framework. Based on this model, we carry out policy simulations to examine whether the housing (stock or flow…
This article describes and explores taxes and debt in finance. Here a situation is thought about, where tax payments would qualify to be considered as debt. Using this principle we can infer that it is possible to create and price a type of bond (Tax Normalization Guarantee) for companies, which would allow them to ent…
Tool detects tax evasion on social media using multi-modal deep learning.
Wealth redistribution through Fokker-Planck equation controls preserves Gini coefficient.
Investigates optimal PPI strategies to reduce carbon emissions while managing financial risk.
A model optimizes carbon emission reduction and allowance purchasing for companies.
Motivated by Kyprianou and Zhou (2009), Wang and Hu (2012), Avram et al. (2017), Li et al. (2017) and Wang and Zhou (2018), we consider in this paper the problem of maximizing the expected accumulated discounted tax payments of an insurance company, whose reserve process (before taxes are deducted) evolves as a spectra…
We investigate an inhomogeneous Ising model in the context of tax evasion dynamics where different types of agents are parametrized via local temperatures and magnetic fields. In particular, we analyse the impact of backauditing and endogenously determined penalty rates on tax compliance. Both features contribute to a …
Calibrates carbon futures option pricing using high-frequency data.
We study the problem of determining risk-minimizing investment strategies for insurance payment processes in the presence of taxes and expenses. We consider the situation where taxes and expenses are paid continuously and symmetrically and introduce the concept of tax- and expense-modified risk-minimization. Risk-minim…
This paper investigates - on the basis of the Cont-Bouchaud model - whether a Tobin tax can stabilize foreign exchange markets. Compared to earlier studies, this paper explicitly recognizes that a transaction tax-induced reduction in market depth may increase the price responsiveness of a given order. We find that the …
Wealth tax equivalent to government stake, affecting returns and portfolio choice.
Study on tax administration issues and their impact on Georgia's budget revenues.
