Optimizes hedge ratio for delta-neutral liquidity positions in AMMs.
problem Balancing price exposure and liquidation risk in borrowing-funded delta-neutral positions.
method Model token prices as correlated geometric Brownian motions, derive optimal hedge ratio maximizing risk-adjusted return subject to liquidation probability constraint.
result Optimal hedge ratio h** = min(h*, h_bar(alpha)) lies between 50% and 70% for typical DeFi lending conditions.
This paper provides a framework for modeling the financial system with multiple illiquid assets when liquidation of illiquid assets is caused by failure to meet a leverage requirement. This extends the network model of Cifuentes, Shin & Ferrucci (2005) which incorporates a single asset with fire sales and capital adequ…
We derive a "semi-analytic" solution for a stock loan in which the lender forces liquidation when the loan-to-collateral ratio drops beneath a certain threshold. We use this to study the sensitivity of the contract to model parameters.
Study analyzes factors affecting capital adequacy in Bangladesh's banks.
problem Factors influencing capital adequacy in commercial banks in Bangladesh.
method Fixed Effect, Random Effect, and Pooled Ordinary Least Square (POLS) methods.
result Several independent variables significantly affect capital adequacy, with specific relationships between leverage, liquidity risk, and other factors.
Study assesses the impact of Basel III reforms on Bangladeshi banks.
problem Impact of Basel III liquidity and capital requirements on Bangladeshi banks.
method Panel data analysis with fixed effects, including macroeconomic variables.
result Higher capital and liquidity requirements negatively affect banks' profitability but positively impact interest rates and private sector lending.
Using recent advances in the econometrics literature, we disentangle from high frequency observations on the transaction prices of a large sample of NYSE stocks a fundamental component and a microstructure noise component. We then relate these statistical measurements of market microstructure noise to observable charac…
When trading incurs proportional costs, leverage can scale an asset's return only up to a maximum multiple, which is sensitive to its volatility and liquidity. In a model with one safe and one risky asset, with constant investment opportunities and proportional costs, we find strategies that maximize long term returns …
The total duration of drawdowns is shown to provide a moment-free, unbiased, efficient and robust estimator of Sharpe ratios both for Gaussian and heavy-tailed price returns. We then use this quantity to infer an analytic expression of the bias of moment-based Sharpe ratio estimators as a function of the return distrib…
We develop a framework for price-mediated contagion in financial systems where banks are forced to liquidate assets to satisfy a risk-weight based capital adequacy requirement. In constructing this modeling framework, we introduce a two-tier pricing structure: the volume weighted average price that is obtained by any b…
We construct a continuous time model for price-mediated contagion precipitated by a common exogenous stress to the banking book of all firms in the financial system. In this setting, firms are constrained so as to satisfy a risk-weight based capital ratio requirement. We use this model to find analytical bounds on the …
Cash collateral is perfect in that it provides simultaneous counterparty credit risk protection and derivatives funding. Securities are imperfect collateral, because of collateral segregation or differences in CSA haircuts and repo haircuts. Moreover, the collateral rate term structure is not observable in the repo mar…
The paper optimizes portfolios by selecting financial ratios via PCA for better value investment.
problem Embedding value investment in portfolio optimization models.
method Principal Component Analysis (PCA) to filter out dominant financial ratios, then applying portfolio optimization model with second-order stochastic dominance criteria.
result PCA-SPO(B) strategy outperforms other models in terms of downside deviation, CVaR, VaR, Sortino, Rachev, and STARR ratios.
The present paper is devoted to the joint motion of two immiscible incompressible liquids in porous media. The liquids have different densities and initially separated by a surface of strong discontinuity (free boundary). We discuss the results of numerical simulations for exact free boundary problems on the microscopi…
A liquidity measure based on consideration and price range is proposed. Initially defined for daily data, Liquidity Index (LIX) can also be estimated via intraday data by using a time scaling mechanism. The link between LIX and the liquidity measure based on weighted average bid-ask spread is established. Using this li…
JIT liquidity providers can sometimes reduce overall market liquidity by crowding out passive LPs.
problem JIT liquidity providers can reduce overall market liquidity by crowding out passive LPs.
method Game-theoretic model with asymmetrically informed agents to analyze JIT liquidity provision in blockchain-based decentralized exchanges.
result JIT LPs only provide liquidity to uninformed orders and crowd out passive LPs when order volume is not sufficiently elastic to pool depth, potentially reducing overall market liquidity.
