A macroeconomic model based on the economic variables (i) assets, (ii) leverage (defined as debt over asset) and (iii) trust (defined as the maximum sustainable leverage) is proposed to investigate the role of credit in the dynamics of economic growth, and how credit may be associated with both economic performance and…

Researchers have constantly asked whether stock returns can be predicted by some macroeconomic data. However, it is known that macroeconomic data may exhibit nonstationarity and/or heavy tails, which complicates existing testing procedures for predictability. In this paper we propose novel empirical likelihood methods …

We study a monetary version of the Keen model by merging two alternative extensions, namely the addition of a dynamic price level and the introduction of speculation. We recall and study old and new equilibria, together with their local stability analysis. This includes a state of recession associated with a deflationa…

Paper finds significant impact of stock market swings on equity risk premium predictability.

problem Predicting equity risk premium based on stock market behavior changes.
method Introduced Bullish Index and used FDMAA for returns analysis; considered 28 indicators.
result Positive shocks in Bullish Index correlate with strong equity risk premium predictability for up to six months, while negative shocks correlate for up to nine months.

Venice used 'helicopter money' to subsidize during famine and plague, but it caused instability.

problem Subsidizing inhabitants during containment policies while preventing long-term debt increase.
method Net-worth helicopter money strategy, equivalent to monetary expansion generating losses to the issuer.
result The strategy caused much monetary instability and had to be quickly reversed.

The study finds that low frequency macroeconomic variables are more important for short-term electricity price forecasting.

problem Improving short-term forecasting of daily electricity prices using macroeconomic variables.
method Developed a Bayesian reverse unrestricted MIDAS model to account for frequency mismatch.
result Inclusion of macroeconomic low frequency variables improves short-term forecasts more than using only surveys or industrial production data.

We develop a pricing model for Sovereign Contingent Convertible bonds (S-CoCo) with payment standstills triggered by a sovereign's Credit Default Swap (CDS) spread. We model CDS spread regime switching, which is prevalent during crises, as a hidden Markov process, coupled with a mean-reverting stochastic process of spr…

Study predicts bond yields using machine learning and ultimate forward rates.

problem Forecasting bond yields using ultimate forward rates.
method Applied de Kort-Vellekooptype methodology for UFR estimation, used linear and nonlinear machine learning techniques.
result Nonlinear machine learning models outperform linear models in bond yield forecasting.

We present an elementary analysis of the dynamical aspects of the GDP / government surplus multiplier with relevance to the assessment of a country's debt repayment policy. We show the (at first) counter intuitive result that in order to reduce the Debt/GDP ratio, countries with high Debt to GDP should go into further …

A new model uses a Levy-driven process to value credit index swaptions.

problem Valuation of credit index swaptions in financial markets.
method Proposes a Levy-driven Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process to model risk-free rate and default intensities.
result Derives formulas for characteristic function, moments, and stationary distribution.

The study analyzes pricing and hedging of STCDOs using an affine model with a catastrophic risk component.

problem Pricing and hedging of collateralized debt obligations (CDOs) with specific focus on mezzanine and equity tranches.
method Specified an affine two-factor model with a catastrophic risk component, estimated using QML and Kalman filter, derived variance-minimizing strategy, analyzed actual performance and simulated extreme loss scenarios.
result The variance-minimizing strategy is most effective for mezzanine tranches but fails for equity tranches.

Public debt is one of the important economic variables that quantitatively describes a nation's economy. Because bankruptcy is a risk faced even by institutions as large as governments (e.g. Iceland), national debt should be strictly controlled with respect to national wealth. Also, the problem of eliminating extreme p…

problem Accurate estimation of propensity to pay and cashflow for optimal debt collection.
method Developed a machine learning framework with pre-processing and model selection.
result The proposed model outperforms current industry strategies.

In this paper the correlation between education, research and macroeconomic strength of countries at a global scale is analyzed on the basis of statistical data published by the UNIDO and OECD. It uses sets of composite indicators describing the economical performance and competitiveness as well as those relevant for h…

The aim of the present article is to treat the Greek public debt issue strictly as a curve fitting problem. Thus, based on Eurostat data and using the Mathematica technical computing software, an exponential function that best fits the data is determined modelling how the Greek public debt expands with time. Exploring …

This paper develops a structural credit risk model to characterize the difference between the economic and recorded default times for a firm. Recorded default occurs when default is recorded in the legal system. The economic default time is the last time when the firm is able to pay off its debt prior to the legal defa…
