互联网金融规制与市场有效性改善*——来自中国网络借贷行业的证据

中国的互联网金融经历了一个先创新发展后监管规制的过程，本文通过对网络借贷行业的实证研究，分析监管规则的出台实施对新型互联网融资市场有效性的影响。实证结果表明，网络借贷平台资金的银行存管、持有ICP证等强制性规定缓解了投资者、平台企业与借款人之间的信息不对称，对克服早期平台间通过竞相承诺高回报率来吸引投资者导致的“柠檬市场”问题、对解决网贷市场上缺乏平台风险性高低有效信号的问题都起到了正向作用，有助于互联网融资市场的有效性提高。     

Operational risk quantified with spectral risk measures: a refined closed-form approximation

The quantification of operational risk has become an important issue as a result of the new capital charges required by the Basel Capital Accord (Basel II) to cover the potential losses of this type of risk. In this paper, we investigate second-order approximation of operational risk quantified with spectral risk measures (OpSRMs) within the theory of second-order regular variation (2RV) and second-order subexponentiality. The result shows that asymptotically two cases (the fast convergence case and the slow convergence) arise depending on the range of the second-order parameter. We also show that the second-order approximation under 2RV is asymptotically equivalent to the slow convergence case. A number of Monte Carlo simulations for a range of empirically relevant frequency and severity distributions are employed to illustrate the performance of our second-order results. The simulation results indicate that our second-order approximations tend to reduce the estimation errors to a great degree, especially for the fast convergence case, and are able to capture the sub-extremal behavior of OpSRMs better than the first-order approximation. Our asymptotic results have implications for the regulation of financial institutions, and may provide further insights into the measurement and management of operational risk.

知识产权保护、进口贸易与创新型领军企业创新

本文首先从理论上分析了知识产权保护通过进口贸易影响企业创新的作用机制,随后,利用中国海关贸易数据与中国工业企业数据,实证分析了知识产权保护对企业创新的影响,并检验了知识产权保护通过进口贸易影响企业创新的作用机制。研究结果表明:(1)知识产权保护水平提高,能够显著促进创新型领军企业的创新。(2)从影响机制来看,知识产权保护水平提高,能够显著提升民营企业、专利密集型行业企业以及出口企业的进口规模,进而促进创新;能够显著提升民营企业和专利密集型行业企业的进口产品种类,进而促进创新;能够显著提升出口企业的进口产品质量,进而促进创新。中国正处在实施创新驱动发展战略的重要阶段,应重视并充分发挥知识产权保护与进口贸易对我国企业创新的促进作用。     

美元周期性波动对我国跨境资本流动的非对称效应研究

有效应对和防范跨境资本流动冲击，维护外汇市场稳定是贯彻落实习总书记“打好防范化解重大风险攻坚战”的重要举措。目前，美元已进入强周期，我国正面临着由强势美元引发的货币贬值、资本外流等风险，当前背景下研究美元周期性波动特征、区制划分及其对跨境资本流动的影响具有重要的理论和现实意义。本文基于2006年10月至2018年6月的月度数据，运用理论模型和MSVAR模型分析美元周期性波动对我国跨境资本流动的非对称效应。研究表明，中美利差对跨境资本流动的影响存在非对称效应，当投资者不存在恐慌避险情绪时，利差的变化将不会引起大规模的跨国资本流动。美元指数对跨境资本流动的冲击效应具有一定的时滞性，美元升值将引发跨境资本流出，且冲击效应持续时间明显长于利差冲击。VIX指数和人民币汇率对跨境资本流动影响较弱，但呈现非对称性特征。加息和缩表后美元升值对资本外流的推动作用明显强于加息和缩表前，表明第三轮强周期下美元升值对我国跨境资本流动的影响更大。     

The role of top management team diversity in shaping the performance of business model innovation: a threshold effect

Business model innovation is one of the firm’s most important strategic decisions. Top management team (TMT), as the critical decision-makers, has essential influence upon such decisions. However, the role of TMT diversity in shaping the performance of business model innovation is less explored in the literature. Based on a sample dataset of 906 observations of small and medium enterprises from China Startups Stock Market during the period of 2009–2011, we find that TMT diversity exhibits a significant threshold effect on the relationship between business model innovation (in terms of novelty-centred and efficiency-centred business model) and firm performance. More specifically, when TMT functional diversity arrives at a certain level, the positive relationship between novelty-centred business model and firm performance becomes more pronounced. On the other hand, the positive relationship between efficiency-centred business model innovation and firm performance will be more significant when TMT tenure diversity increases to a certain level.     

Returns to women’s education using optimal IV selection

This paper investigates returns to women’s education by applying an optimal IV selection approach, post-Lasso IV estimation, which improves the first-stage predictive relationship between an endogenous regressor and instruments. Using the 2010 American Community Survey, we find that an extra year of education increases married women’s own income by $4,480 and spouse income by $8,822. Our findings indicate that 53% of the increase in women’s consumption by education is attributed to the marriage market, and thus, we conclude that the marriage market is the primary channel through which education improves women’s well-being. The results demonstrate the advantages of the post-Lasso approach: The resulting two-stage least squares estimator maintains efficiency without increasing finite sample bias and is less subject to the inconsistency problem when some instruments are invalid; This differs from the results using the instrument of birth quarters only, which is mostly applied in studies on returns to education.     

城市高房价如何影响农民工的定居意愿

中国城镇化进入了以提升质量为特征的减速阶段,农民工有序完成迁移第二个过程,即在城市定居下来,这是高质量城镇化的重要组成部分,而快速上涨的城市房价对农民工定居意愿的影响日益凸显.本文首先构建中国城乡人口迁移两个过程的理论模型,分析城市住房价格对农民工定居意愿的影响及作用机制;其次将2012-2017年中国流动人口动态监测数据与288个城市数据匹配进行实证检验.研究发现,城市高房价显著降低了农民工的定居意愿,而定居意愿下降将会阻滞城镇化的进程.机制检验发现,城市高房价主要通过提高农民工家庭在城市的预期购房成本进而降低其定居意愿.此外,本文还进行了个体异质性和城市异质性检验.个体异质性检验发现,城市高房价对第二代、低受教育水平和本地无房农民工定居意愿的负向影响更大,对更高收入水平、更大发展空间以及可获得公共服务农民工定居意愿的负向影响更小;城市异质性检验发现,随着城市规模的扩大,城市高房价对农民工定居意愿影响的负向作用逐渐增大.本文的政策含义是抑制城市房价过快上涨、提高农民工收入和福利水平、提供更为平等的公共服务,以及解决好进城农民工"三权"有偿退出问题,可以增强农民工的定居意愿,推动城镇化高质量发展.
