Study compares shareholder networks in Turkish and Dutch companies.

problem Understanding differences in shareholder roles across countries.

It is a common belief that the behavior of shareholders depends upon the direction of price fluctuations: if prices increase they buy, if prices decrease they sell. That belief, however, is more based on ``common sense'' than on facts. In this paper we present evidence for a specific class of shareholders which shows t…

We present a methodology to extract the backbone of complex networks based on the weight and direction of links, as well as on nontopological properties of nodes. We show how the methodology can be applied in general to networks in which mass or energy is flowing along the links. In particular, the procedure enables us…

A firm with heterogeneous shareholders optimizes dividends under ambiguity aggregation.

problem Optimizing dividends for a firm with heterogeneous shareholders under ambiguity aggregation.
method Characterizing equilibrium dividends using a partition of the state space.
result Time-homogeneous equilibrium dividend law characterized by a partition of the state space.

We propose a network description of large market investments, where both stocks and shareholders are represented as vertices connected by weighted links corresponding to shareholdings. In this framework, the in-degree (kink_{in}) and the sum of incoming link weights (vv) of an investor correspond to the number of asset…

The study examines how investor protection and past information affect stock returns and interest rates.

problem Empirical regularities related to investor protection and past information in asset pricing models.
method Developed a dynamic asset pricing model with a controlling shareholder and good/bad memory in budget dynamics.
result Good/bad memory of investors on historical market information affects stock returns and interest rates, strengthening investor protection in high ownership concentration.

In this work, we consider Corporate Governance (CG) ties among companies from a multiple network perspective. Such a structure naturally arises from the close interrelation between the Shareholding Network (SH) and the Board of Directors network (BD). In order to capture the simultaneous effects of both networks on CG,…

In this paper we study the optimal dividend problem for a company whose surplus process evolves as a spectrally positive Levy process. This model including the dual model of the classical risk model and the dual model with diffusion as special cases. We assume that dividends are paid to the shareholders according to ad…

Fair market valuations ignore future worker profits in employee-owned firms.

problem Ignoring future worker profits in fair market valuations for employee-owned firms.
method Analyzing property rights and residual claimants in employee-owned firms.
result Fair market valuations are inappropriate for employee-owned firms.

A new XVA strategy rooted in balance sheet perspective improves equity process for bank shareholders.

problem Counterparty risk valuation adjustments (XVAs) in financial derivatives.
method Develops a cost-of-capital XVA strategy in a balance sheet perspective, solving explicitly in static setup and dynamically in trade context.
result Ensures a submartingale equity process corresponding to a target hurdle rate on capital at risk.

The paper optimizes dividend strategies for companies with assets and liabilities under solvency constraints.

problem Maximizing dividends while adhering to solvency requirements in the face of correlated asset and liability movements.
method Developed verification lemmas to show optimal barrier dividend strategies in two cases: with and without shareholder funding.
result Optimal dividend strategies are barrier-type, derived in closed form and illustrated.

The paper examines how CoCo bonds can enhance financial stability in interconnected banking systems.

problem Enhancing financial stability in interconnected banking systems.
method Financial network model with contingent convertible (CoCo) debt obligations.
result Replacing unsecured interbank debt with CoCo debt decreases systemic risk and increases bank shareholder value.

Research shows higher damages may encourage more disclosure in corporate disputes.

problem How to resolve disputes over undisclosed material events in a way that encourages voluntary disclosure.
method Dynamic continuous-time model of management's equilibrium disclosure decision.
result Increased damages may lead to an endogenous increase in voluntary disclosure.

Optimal dividends for insurers with climate tipping point consideration.

problem Natural catastrophe claims and climate tipping point impact insurance profits.
method Two-dimensional stochastic control problems with Erlang distribution for tipping point timing, numerical approximation.
result Non-stationary climate tipping point can benefit shareholders by optimizing dividends.

In this paper, we study the dividend strategies for a shareholder with non-constant discount rate in a diffusion risk model. We assume that the dividends can only be paid at a bounded rate and restrict ourselves to the Markov strategies. This is a time inconsistent control problem. The extended HJB equation is given an…

Paper predicts stock market values using machine learning.

problem Predicting stock market values for Tehran stock exchange groups.
method Used machine learning algorithms including Decision Tree, Bagging, Random Forest, Adaptive Boosting, Gradient Boosting, XGBoost, Artificial neural network, Recurrent Neural Network, and Long short-term memory (LSTM).
result LSTM shows highest accuracy among all algorithms tested.

AI uses KGs to assess economic impact of selective lockdowns on Italian companies.

problem Impact of selective lockdowns on Italian companies' economic stability.
method Automated Reasoning and Knowledge Graphs to analyze company networks.
result Identifies strategic companies at risk of takeover during lockdowns.

In this note we study the optimal dividend problem for a company whose surplus process, in the absence of dividend payments, evolves as a generalized compound Poisson model in which the counting process is a generalized Poisson process. This model including the classical risk model and the Polya-Aeppli risk model as sp…

Credit risk may be warehoused by choice, or because of limited hedging possibilities. Credit risk warehousing increases capital requirements and leaves open risk. Open risk must be priced in the physical measure, rather than the risk neutral measure, and implies profits and losses. Furthermore the rate of return on cap…

Be it for taking advantage of stock undervaluation or in order to distribute part of their profits to shareholders, firms may buy back their own shares. One of the way they proceed is by including Accelerated Share Repurchases (ASR) as part of their repurchase programs. In this article, we study the pricing and optimal…
