The Psychological Contract in Employment in Vietnam: Preliminary Empirical Evidence from an Economy in Transition

The psychological contract is defined as a set of mutual and promissory obligations perceived by employees and employers in their employment relationship. Although this concept had been extensively researched in the West, little empirical evidence in other contexts was available. This study operationalized the concept of psychological contract in Vietnam, an economy in transition. From a sample of 220 questionnaires of employees and their corresponding human resource managers, it found some distinct features of the psychological contract. Furthermore, this articles confirmed the congruence in the perceptions of employees and employers about contract obligations and fulfilments.

员工创造力与越轨创新:心理特权和道德推脱视角

既有研究多聚焦于员工创造力对组织创新绩效的正向影响,对其可能产生的负面结果及发生机制探讨较少。基于道德自律和心理特权构建核心理论框架,通过道德推脱（中介效应）、心理特权（调节作用）解释员工创造力影响越轨创新行为的内在机理和边界条件。运用230份个案调查数据进行实证检验,结果显示：员工创造力能够正向预测越轨创新行为;道德推脱在创造力与越轨创新行为间起部分中介作用;心理特权在创造力与道德推脱间起正向调节作用。研究有效揭示了员工越轨创新行为发生机制和约束条件,为工作场所创造型员工管理提供了新的理论视角和实践启示。     

科技人才组织领地行为如何影响其离职意向

基于资源保存理论视角,以科技人才为研究对象,关注其组织领地行为对离职意向的影响机制,并探究心理所有权的中介作用、婚姻的调节作用以及婚姻与心理所有权共同产生的被调节的中介作用。建立基于科技人才婚姻情况与心理所有权的被调节的中介作用模型,运用问卷调查方法收集全国各地高新技术企业、高等院校、科研院所等科技人才共411份有效问卷,展开实证分析。结果表明：不考虑婚姻的调节作用时,科技人才组织领地行为对离职意向的直接影响不显著,心理所有权对这种直接影响也无中介作用;考虑到婚姻的调节作用,未婚群体的组织领地行为越强,离职意向越强烈;在被调节的中介作用模型中,婚姻状况在心理所有权对组织领地行为与离职意向间的中介作用起到了调节作用,具体表现为未婚群体组织领地行为通过组织心理所有权的部分中介作用负向影响离职意向,通过直接影响机制正向影响离职意向。     

金融审判中风险防范的适法困境与选择

金融资管业务往往通过民事合同的安排来达到降低交易成本、规避金融监管的目的。为了防范金融风险,金融监管机构通过《资管新规》等一系列监管政策加强对金融市场的"穿透式"监管。金融商事审判机关在制定法没有明确规定的情况下,如何针对违反监管政策的金融交易合同做出公允的裁判是亟须解决的问题。本文分析了合同法第53条3、4、5款的适用空间为何,以及金融商事审判如何在现行法的框架内防范实现风险防范的目的。     

Optimal insurance in the presence of reinsurance

This paper studies an optimal insurance and reinsurance design problem among three agents: policyholder, insurer, and reinsurer. We assume that the preferences of the parties are given by distortion risk measures, which are equivalent to dual utilities. By maximizing the dual utility of the insurer and jointly solving the optimal insurance and reinsurance contracts, it is found that a layering insurance is optimal, with every layer being borne by one of the three agents. We also show that reinsurance encourages more insurance, and is welfare improving for the economy. Furthermore, it is optimal for the insurer to charge the maximum acceptable insurance premium to the policyholder. This paper also considers three other variants of the optimal insurance/reinsurance models. The first two variants impose a limit on the reinsurance premium so as to prevent insurer to reinsure all its risk. An optimal solution is still layering insurance, though the insurer will have to retain higher risk. Finally, we study the effect of competition by permitting the policyholder to insure its risk with an insurer, a reinsurer, or both. The competition from the reinsurer dampens the price at which an insurer could charge to the policyholder, although the optimal indemnities remain the same as the baseline model. The reinsurer will however not trade with the policyholder in this optimal solution.     

Customer concentration and loan contract terms

We study pricing and non-pricing features of loan contracts to gauge how the credit market evaluates a firm’s customer-base profile and supply-chain relations. Higher customer concentration increases interest rate spreads and the number of restrictive covenants featured in newly initiated as well as renegotiated bank loans. Customer concentration also abbreviates the maturity of those loans as well as the relationship between firms and their banks. These effects are intensified by customers’ financial distress, the level of relationship-specific investments, and the use of trade credit in customer–supplier relations. Our evidence shows that a deeper exposure to a small set of large customers bears negative consequences for a firm’s relations with its creditors, revealing limits to integration along the supply chain.     

《劳动合同法》视野下规范劳务派遣发展的对策研究

《劳动合同法》及《劳动合同法实施条例》(以下简称《条例》)针对我国目前快速但无序发展的劳务派遣存在的问题做出了相应规定,但仍存在缺陷,因此,应从完善立法、规范被派遣劳动者、劳务派遣单位、用工单位及政府的行为方面促进劳务派遣的发展。

Heterogeneous Risk Preferences,Discount Rates and Land Contract Choice in Ethiopia

This paper analyses the role of risk and rate of time preference in the choice of land contracts. The analysis builds on the risk‐sharing and imperfect market explanations of contract choice. Unique data from Ethiopia, which contain land contract information and experimental risk and rate of time preference measures on matched landlord–tenant partners, are employed in the empirical analysis. The results show that landlord and tenant time preferences are significant determinants of contract choice. For landlords (but not tenants), risk preference is also significant, indicating the importance of financial constraints and production risk in the determination of contract choice. The results are of particular relevance to land market policy in Ethiopia, where production is risk‐prone, financial markets are imperfect, and where there is a major need for the development of vibrant land rental markets.
