发展航运金融推动上海国际航运中心建设的思考

2009年3月25日,国务院通过《关于推进上海加快发展现代服务业和先进制造业、建设国际金融中心和国际航运中心的意见》,为上海国际航运中心的建设指明了发展的方向。发展航运金融是航运中心建设的重要内容和途径,文章通过国际和国内比较,分析了上海在航运中心建设和航运金融发展方面存在的问题,并对发展航运金融推进上海国际航运中心建设提出了思考和建议。     

抓住时代契机积极推动创新大力发展航运金融

航运金融具有产业关联度高和产业附加值高等特点,上海发展航运金融不仅有利于本地航运相关产业的健康稳定发展,也会促进相关金融业务的拓展。因此,航运金融是连接国际航运中心与国际金融中心的纽带,它对促进上海国际航运中心与国际金融中心建设均具有重要意义。     

航运金融发展的借鉴与思考——以天津市为例

航运金融化是当代港口经济和航运业发展的重要趋势.目前天津航运金融建设尚处于起步阶段,同世界国际航运中心城市相比还存在很大的差距,因此借鉴其他国际航运中心发展经验,积极推动天津航运金融快速发展具有十分迫切的重要意义.     

上海加快发展航运金融服务的问题与对策

航运金融服务作为建设国际航运中心和国际金融中心的纽带,其发展具有极其重要的意义。上海的航运服务和金融服务占据国内优势地位,但与国际知名的航运金融中心相比,仍有较大差距。该文对上海发展航运金融服务方面存在的突出问题进行了分析,作了一些探索研究,提出了可行对策与建议。     

自贸区对上海航运中心建设的影响研究北大核心SSCI

早在1995年中央就正式提出要将上海建设成为国际航运中心。在政策的积极推动下,上海航运中心建设取得了显著的成绩,上海港货物年吞吐量已连续多年蝉联世界第一。但在航运服务业等"软实力"方面上海仍与主流航运中心存在较大差距。在TPP和TTIP谈判的倒逼下,上海自由贸易试验区姗姗来迟。自贸区的建立将从货物流量、基础设施、政策制度和金融支持等方面对上海航运中心建设产生积极影响。上海需要抓住自贸区带来的战略机遇,改善政策环境,吸引高端人才,完善基础设施,拓展航运金融,加快推进上海国际航运中心的建设。     

我国船舶融资租赁的发展现状及对策研究

2009年,国务院将船舶业列为国家十大振兴规划产业之一,并正式发文为建设上海航运中心和金融中心提供强大的政策支持,在这一背景下来讨论在我国仍作为新型的融资租赁形式的船舶融资租赁具有重要意义。     

加快发展上海船舶金融服务业的思考

大力发展航运金融产业是上海国际航运中心软环境建设的重要环节.本文通过分析国内船舶融资业务的发展现状,提出了设立船舶融资资产转让信托、船舶投资基金以及将船舶融资资产证券化等设想与其他相关配套政策建议.     

上海“四个中心”发展的逻辑脉络及发展趋势分析

Bayesian Premium Rating with Latent Structure

We propose a fully Bayesian approach to non-life risk premium rating, based on hierarchical models with latent variables for both claim frequency and claim size. Inference is based on the joint posterior distribution and is performed by Markov Chain Monte Carlo. Rather than plug-in point estimates of all unknown parameters, we take into account all sources of uncertainty simultaneously when the model is used to predict claims and estimate risk premiums. Several models are fitted to both a simulated dataset and a small portfolio regarding theft from cars. We show that interaction among latent variables can improve predictions significantly. We also investigate when interaction is not necessary. We compare our results with those obtained under a standard generalized linear model and show through numerical simulation that geographically located and spatially interacting latent variables can successfully compensate for missing covariates. However, when applied to the real portfolio data, the proposed models are not better than standard models due to the lack of spatial structure in the data.     

The deliberation around accounting techniques: accounting for depreciation and foreign exchange in an Indian jute company, 1870-1900

This paper examines the way two accounting techniques, namely depreciation and foreign exchange, were deliberated on, between 1870 and 1900, in an Indian jute company whose shareholders resided in the UK. The arena for these deliberations was the conflictual relationship between controlling and non-controlling shareholders as to how best to account for depreciation and foreign exchange especially when the particular accountings affected distributional issues such as the dividend decision. The purpose of this paper is to analyse and explain the processes by which a company's accounting practices emerge and develop as a contest between different interests. Accounting framed the parameters of the deliberations and provided the language of power and dissent. The paper uses a rich archive that includes narrative and accounting material.     

Pricing Dynamic Insurance Risks Using the Principle of Equivalent Utility

We introduce an expected utility approach to price insurance risks in a dynamic financial market setting. The valuation method is based on comparing the maximal expected utility functions with and without incorporating the insurance product, as in the classical principle of equivalent utility. The pricing mechanism relies heavily on risk preferences and yields two reservation prices - one each for the underwriter and buyer of the contract. The framework is rather general and applies to a number of applications that we extensively analyze.     

International harmonization of Japanese accounting standards

Historically, Japanese accounting standards have been quite distinct from International Accounting Standards (IASs) which have been perceived as being modelled on British-American accounting standards. However, in the 1990s, after the publication of E32 in 1989 and the IASC-IOSCO Agreement in 1995, the Business Accounting Deliberation Committee (BADC), the standards-setting body in Japan, has pursued a policy of harmonization with IASs. Accounting standards relating to consolidated financial statements of companies that make cross-border offerings of securities or operate worldwide are being revised drastically. This paper focuses on the development of international accounting harmonization and its impact on Japan.     

Commodity financialization and sector ETFs: Evidence from crude oil futures

We investigate the diversification benefits of energy assets in the setting of commodity financialization using data on crude oil futures and Sector ETFs (SPDRs). Correlations between commodities and financial assets increased during the post-Commodity Futures Modernization Act (CFMA)/commodity bull cycle period, resulting in lower benefits of diversification. However, we find that conditional correlations between crude oil futures and sector ETFs meaningfully increased only since the 2008–09 financial crisis. The results therefore suggest that the financial crisis, rather than CFMA regulation, explains changes in the diversification benefits of commodities. Moreover, we find that oil futures returns are less correlated with SPDRs than with the S&P index. Thus, energy futures, and crude oil in particular, offer the potential for diversification benefits in sector-style investing.     

Multiple Dimensions of Accounting in the Development of GAAP

The phrase 'accepted accounting principles' underlying financial statements is a forerunner of today's accounting standards. Here, it is argued that history shows that the term 'principles' is often most vague in debates on the development of those standards. The reasons for and consequences of that vague use are varied and complex. This article provides insights not highlighted in earlier analyses of the periods reviewed. While debates like the rule- versus principle-based standards are set up as two-dimensional, the many dimensions of accounting often allow argument to be easily diverted. The debate/argument thus remains unresolved. For progress to be achieved in the establishment of accounting standards the many dimensions of accounting must be acknowledged and attempts to divert debate minimized. Those with a stake in the development of accounting standards need to consider the total scene of the related accounting. In a particular debate, dimensions under scrutiny must be stated, with any others in that total scene being acknowledged even if kept constant.     

Life Insurance Policies with Statistical Heterogeneous Population

In the paper we consider an endowment insurance contract with a twelve months maturation time. Using the majorization order and Schur-convex functions we derive upper and lower bounds of the premium, the death and survival benefits for a hetrogeneous population of insureds. The bounds are obtained for the exponential, Balducci, and linear approximations.     

＂Differences＂are the Biggest Obstacle
