Codes of Ethics in Hong Kong: Their Adoption and Impact in the Run up to the 1997 Transition of Sovereignty to China

Following a government campaign run by the Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAC) in 1994, many Hong Kong companies and trade associations adopted written codes of conduct. The research study reported here examines how and why companies responded, and assesses the impact of code adoption on the moral climate of code adopters. The research involved (a) initial questionnaire surveys to which 184 organisations replied, (b) longitudinal questionnaire-based assessments of moral ethos and conduct in a focal sample of 17 code adopting companies, (c) interviews with 33 managers in the focal companies examining the adoption and impact of the codes, and (d) content analysis of 41 company codes of conduct, including those of most focal companies, plus the ICAC model code.While a mixture of prudential and altruistic reasons were given for code adoption, content analysis suggested that the prime motive was corporate self-defence. The prevailing themes were bribery, conflict of interest, insider information, gambling, moonlighting, accuracy of records and misuse of corporate assets. Wider social responsibility tended to be neglected. Companies appeared to have imposed their codes top-down, emphasising disciplinary procedures rather than ethics training, and appointing neither ethics counsellors nor ombuds-people. The longitudinal study over a seven month period suggested that while moral ethos may have declined, overall standards of perceived conduct had not changed.     

船舶抵押融资的法律风险研究

船舶抵押融资贷款项目中,银行应注重船舶的船龄、结构及船况,并充分考虑在航运市场大幅下滑时船舶价值大幅降低的可能性、船舶的保险是否充分、船舶管理人或船东管理船舶的水平、船舶管理人在市场中的信用和船舶是否入级及其船级社的声誉。在船舶抵押放贷之后,银行要督促抵押人及时偿还每一期贷款,并建立对抵押船舶的监控及跟踪体系。     

中国货币中性与非中性的实证检验

当前这场席卷全球的金融危机告诉我们:正确地认识货币供应量与实体经济之间的关系并确定相应的货币政策中介目标,是引导经济持续健康发展的重要前提.鉴于此,本文采用了中国1996-2008年的季度数据,通过建立向量误差修正模型,对中国货币是否为中性进行了实证检验.结果表明,中国货币不但在短期表现为非中性,在长期也是非中性的.     

股市波动、金融政策和宏观经济关系研究——基于因子VAR模型

通过因子分析从诸宏观经济变量中提取了金融政策因子和宏观经济状态因子,建立了基于VAR的股价波动、金融政策和宏观经济三变量回归模型。研究表明：金融政策影响股价的表现,而宏观经济状态对股价、股价对金融政策和宏观经济状态的影响均不显著;基于标准差的VAR（5）模型相对于基于收益率的VAR（3）模型能更好地刻画股市波动与金融政策、宏观经济三者之间的关系。     

对两种计量模式下合并财务报表相关问题的探讨

合并财务报表历来是财务会计的难题,就理论界对合并财务报表研究的现状而言,在历史成本计量模式下存在如下四个方面的争议,即合并财务报表的目标、合并会计处理方法、外币报表折算方法和消除物价变动方法,随着公允价值日益普遍运用,如果采用公允价值计量模式替代历史成本计量模式,乔伊和缪勒的构想就可实现.     

Market reactions to announcements to expense options

The joint hypotheses of informationally efficient markets, transparent financial statements, and adequate accounting disclosure suggest that announcements of changes in the accounting treatment of employee stock options from footnote disclosure to expense recognition should not trigger stock price reactions because free-cash-flows will not change. Event study results from a sample of 241 firms that announce such changes reveal statistically significant negative price changes followed by positive price changes about equal in magnitude. We propose the learning, sophisticated investor, neglected firm, and firm size hypotheses to explain the observed announcement-period stock price reaction.

领导愤怒表达如何影响员工创新过程投入——一个被调节的链式中介模型

基于EASI模型,结合情绪认知评价理论,构建中国组织情境下领导愤怒表达通过组织支持感与职场焦虑影响员工创新过程投入的链式中介模型,探讨正念的边界条件。研究结果表明：领导愤怒表达对员工创新过程投入具有负向影响;组织支持感和职场焦虑分别在领导愤怒表达对员工创新过程投入的负向影响中起中介作用及链式中介作用;员工正念通过缓和职场焦虑对创新过程投入的负向影响,进而调节组织支持感与职场焦虑的链式中介作用。该研究不仅有助于丰富领导愤怒情绪研究,也可为组织管理者完善情绪表达策略提供启发。
