Sources, uses, and forms of data in the new product development process

This paper presents qualitative and exploratory research investigating the role that managing knowledge and information plays in new product development (NPD). A set of 20 in-depth interviews uncovered eight basic types of information used throughout the NPD process and three general approaches to managing information needed in the NPD process. Although some exemplary companies seem to do an outstanding job of collecting and disseminating information, the majority of firms struggle. NPD process automation solutions tackle part of the problem, ignoring nonquantitative data forms and the full picture of information use throughout the entire development process.     

Social Comparisons in Ultimatum Bargaining

Experiments are used to examine the effects of social comparisons in ultimatum bargaining. We inform responders about the average offer before they decide whether to accept or reject their specific offer. This significantly increases offers and offer‐specific rejection probabilities. For comparison, we consider another change in informational conditions: telling responders the total pie is $30—ex ante it was either $15 or $30—affects offers and rejection probabilities roughly as much. Our results are consistent with people’s dislike for deviations from the norm of equity but inconsistent with fairness theories, where people dislike income disparity between themselves and their referents.     

加强会计诚信建设 提高会计信息质量

会计信息是国家的宏观经济管理部门、企业经济管理部门及其他方面进行决策的依据。会计信息真实客观与否，直接影响着企业经营管理、国家宏观调控、广大股东的投资决策，势必影响市场经济的有效健康发展。从根本上建立一套与市场经济相适应的会计信息质量保障体系势在必行，而整个体系的建立和健全是一个任重而道远的过程。在这个过程中，会计诚信也成了整个市场经济发展的职业道德规范，笔者就此谈谈几点看法。     

简析内幕交易罪中犯罪主体的认定

为了规范证券市场，维护投资者的合法权益，我国立法机关加强了对内幕交易犯罪行为的惩处，理论界对内幕信息、犯罪主体的界定等一些具体问题有较大争议，本文对这类问题在一定程度上进行了探讨。     

Strategic knowledge sharing in Bayesian games

This paper provides a model for the study of direct, public and strategic knowledge sharing in Bayesian games. We propose an equilibrium concept which takes into account communication possibilities of exogenously certifiable statements and in which beliefs off the equilibrium path are explicitly deduced from consistent possibility correspondences, without making reference to perturbed games. Properties of such an equilibrium and of revised knowledge are examined. In particular, it is shown that our equilibrium is always a sequential equilibrium of the associated extensive form game with communication. Finally, sufficient conditions for the existence of perfectly revealing or non-revealing equilibria are characterized in some classes of games. Several examples and economic applications are investigated.     

非对称信息条件下代建制的研究

由于代建项目一般工程量大、建设周期长、涉及的关系复杂、隐蔽性较强，很多质量问题在使用过程中逐渐暴露出来，而且在施工过程中项目代建单位比政府投资主管部门对工作及其环境更为了解，因此，政府投资主管部门和项目代建单位在信息占有方面不对称。在这种情况下，有些项目代建单位可能会利用自己的信息优势，通过损害政府投资主管部门的利益来最大化地提高自己的利益，如偷工减料、以次充好、无理索赔等等。在此，文章针对在这种非对称信息条件下如何完善代建制提出一些建议。     

偏远地区高校图书馆构建和谐文化作用初探

偏远地区的高等学校图书馆是该地区重要的科技、文化信息源，构建和谐文化，应该充分发挥这些图书馆的信息辐射作用。高等学校和地方政府应共同努力，把图书馆建成当地的科技、文化信息中心，以促进我国和谐文化的早日建成。     

金融组织强制性信息披露问题研究

由于规模经济的原因,作为信息劣势方——投资者公共利益代表者的政府必然成为强制性信忠披露的主体。政府按照参与约束原则和激励相容原则进行机制设计甄别金融组织,引导其确定合理的信忠披露边界,形成分离均衡,金融市场上的非对称信息转变为对称信息。但政府强制金融组织进行信息披露时,应尊重其利益追求和考虑金融市场发育程度等。     

Competition and Information Production in Market Maker Models

Abstract:   The microstructure literature models the mechanisms through which fundamental information is incorporated into market prices. This paper extends previous models by endogenising information production and analysing incentives for costly information production. In contrast to the existing literature, increasing the number of informed traders can result in reduced price informativeness. When prices have an allocative role this has welfare consequences: the regulatory implications of a dichotomy between private and public incentives for information gathering are discussed.     

Information Flows across Markets: Evidence from China–Backed Stocks Dual–Listed in Hong Kong and New York

Using a bivariate generalized autoregressive conditional heteroskedasticity (GARCH) model, we examine patterns of information flows for China–backed stocks that are cross–listed on exchanges in Hong Kong and New York. Results analyzing the dual–listed stocks indicate significant mutual feedback of information between domestic (Hong Kong) and offshore (New York) markets in terms of pricing and volatility. Stocks listed on the domestic market appear to play a more significant role of information transmission in the pricing process, whereas stocks listed on the offshore market play a bigger role in volatility spillover.
