The eurosystem money market auctions: A banking perspective

This paper analyzes the individual bidding behavior of German banks in the money market auctions conducted by the ECB from the beginning of 2000:IIIQ to the end of 2001:IQ. Our approach takes a variety of characteristics of the individual banks into account, particularly variables that capture the different use of liquidity and the different attitude towards liquidity risk of the individual banks. It turns out that these characteristics are reflected in banks’ bidding behavior. Thus, our study contributes to a deeper understanding of the way liquidity risk is managed in the banking sector.

我国商业银行实施精细化管理的理论思考

商业银行精细化管理是对企业精细化管理行为的引申和运用,它对商业银行克服粗放经营现象、运用数据技术进行成本和风险控制,进而实现效益最大化具有重要的现实意义。我国商业银行的精细化管理涉及决策组织、职能部门和执行机构,包括管理战略、管理资源和营销策略等管理过程,具体对风险管理目标、经营成本控制和客户服务方案每一环节设计系统化方案、进行标准化控制和实行差异化管理。实施精细管理需要有效的组织保障、技术支持和目标监控,并通过智能化的程序控制和规范化的制度约束,确保规范管理行为,实现管理目标,取得最佳的经营效益。     

民营资本与经济增长——宁波市体外循环资金的基本状况及管理对策

本课题以宁波地区体外循环资金为研究对象,分析了体外循环资金的主要形式、特点、产生的原因及对整个社会经济产生的积极影响和消极影响。在此基础上,文章提出相应的政策建议:在宏观层面,国家要对体外循环资金进行正确引导,疏堵结合,积极拓宽投融资渠道,优化融资环境,平抑体外循环资金的过渡发展;在中观层面,地方政府要适合本地经济特点,切实转变职能,积极为中小企业发展创造良好的社会环境;在微观层面,工商银行要进一步提升服务水平,有效吸收民间闲散资金,削减民间借贷的资金供给,为抑制体外循环资金的过度发展做出积极的贡献。

The Market for New Issues: Impact of Offering Price on Price Support and Underpricing

Previous studies have shown that the pattern of first day returns to initialpublic offerings is consistent with the hypotheses of underpricing and price support. We examine two different periods, 1975–1984 and 1996–2002, and find that in each case the measures of price support and underpricing are substantially affected by the initial public offerings' beginning price. During the period 1975–1984, the mean and standard deviation of returns to the price supported group are nearly always zero regardless of price, whileg the mean of the returns to the underpriced group is smile-shaped: high for low-priced and high-priced stocks but lower for stocks offered at intermediate prices. The patterns are different in the most recent data: the mean and standard deviation of both the price supported and underpriced groups are smile-shaped. For the lowest priced stocks, the measures in the later period mirror those for the 1975–1984 period, but for more expensive stocks the measures are substantially higher. The results apply to the first day returns of both firm commitment and best efforts offerings. Once price is taken into account, other than the difference in the probability of price support, the differences among offering types seem to be of secondary importance in explaining first day returns.
