企业年金账户管理若干问题探析

企业年金账户管理作为企业年金运作流程中的重要一环，日益受到人们的重视。目前我国企业年金账户管理存在的问题主要有：缺乏统一的行业标准、企业年金账户可携带性不强、企业年金待遇尚不能实现终身支付等。为更好地解决这些问题，笔者认为，应加快推进行业标准建设，加强“三加一”捆绑式销售、提高流程运作效率，加快推进集合计划、扩大企业年金实施范围，积极发挥保险系企业年金账户管理人的优势。     

关于我国企业年金会计核算的思考

作为基本养老保障制度的重要组成部分,近年来我国企业年金业务发展迅猛,企业年金会计核算问题也越来越为社会各方所关注。2006年2月,财政部相继颁布了《企业会计准则第9号——职工薪酬》和《企业会计准则第10号——企业年金基金》,对企业年金会计核算问题进行了具体规范。应该说,与以往相比,现行的会计准则在企业年金会计核算的恰当性和公允性方面取得了很大进步,但仍然存在诸多局限和不足。有鉴于此,本文首先对企业年金的性质和企业年金的会计主体进行界定,分别从企业年金会计和企业年金基金会计两个层面对上述局限和不足进行了剖析,并结合我国企业年金业务发展实际,提出了几点建议。

我国企业年金信托受托架构的本土化问题——以企业年金信托受益人保护为中心

《企业年金试行办法》和《企业年金基金管理试行办法》确定了我国企业年金实行DC模式,制度设计者期冀借用信托制度来保护企业年金基金的安全和参加企业年金计划的职工的权益。但是,从国外移植的制度设计与我国的信托法律环境并不配套,导致我国企业年金徒有信托之名没有信托之实,在企业年金基金运作中无法充分发挥信托的制度优势,作为企业年金信托受益人的广大职工面临着潜在的制度和法律风险。本文结合5年来我国企业年金的市场实践,从法律的视角解释了我国企业年金适用信托制度过程中存在的本土化问题,论证了目前企业年金信托受托架构设计缺陷对职工权益保护的影响,并提出了切实可行的解决方案。

Short-sale refinancing and price adjustment speed to bad news: Evidence from a quasi-natural experiment in China

Short selling may accelerate stock price adjustment to negative news. However, the literature provides mixed evidence for this prediction. Using short-sale refinancing and a staggered difference-in-differences (DID) model, this paper explores the effect of short selling on stock price adjustment. Our results show that (1) short-sale refinancing improves the speed of stock price adjustment to negative news. This result holds after we control for endogeneity. (2) The positive relationship between short-sale refinancing and stock price adjustment speed is significant in subsamples of stocks with higher earnings management or lower accuracy of analyst forecasts, indicating that firms with more opaque information are more likely to be targeted by short sellers. In subsamples of stocks with a higher ownership concentration or lower ownership by institutional investors, short selling is more likely to increase the speed of stock price adjustment, indicating that ownership structure may influence negative news mining. (3) As short-sale refinancing exacerbates the absorption of bad news by stock prices, it increases crash risk. This study enriches the research on the economic consequences of short selling and provides empirical evidence supporting regulations on short selling in China.

The case for management history

This article defines the case for treating management history as a discrete subject area, although one closely related to business, accounting, labour, and industrial history. It seeks to concentrate on the nature, process, and practice of management as an activity within the organization, and to argue that it is important that modern British managers understand the intellectual and cultural roots of their profession, since without these they will tend to be swayed by short-term management 'fads'. Within the broad topic there are several identifiable sub-areas for potential exploration, including the comparative historical development of management between different countries, management institutions, managerial careers and labour markets, management structures, management skills, and management thought and theory.     

The life and career of John Spence Ogilvy (1805-71), the first chartered accountant to emigrate to Australia

So far as the available evidence allows, this paper examines the life and career of John Spence Ogilvy, foundation member of the Society of Accountants in Edinburgh in 1854, who emigrated to Melbourne in 1856, but did not play a part in the development of an organized accounting profession in Australia. The paper also attempts to explain the gap of thirty-two years between the formation of the first accounting bodies in Edinburgh and Melbourne.

Bayesian Premium Rating with Latent Structure

We propose a fully Bayesian approach to non-life risk premium rating, based on hierarchical models with latent variables for both claim frequency and claim size. Inference is based on the joint posterior distribution and is performed by Markov Chain Monte Carlo. Rather than plug-in point estimates of all unknown parameters, we take into account all sources of uncertainty simultaneously when the model is used to predict claims and estimate risk premiums. Several models are fitted to both a simulated dataset and a small portfolio regarding theft from cars. We show that interaction among latent variables can improve predictions significantly. We also investigate when interaction is not necessary. We compare our results with those obtained under a standard generalized linear model and show through numerical simulation that geographically located and spatially interacting latent variables can successfully compensate for missing covariates. However, when applied to the real portfolio data, the proposed models are not better than standard models due to the lack of spatial structure in the data.
