It has been urged that research be directed at understanding the development of political institutions, particularly administrative institutions, in the American governance structure, as well as their role in providing order and change in American politics. Toward this end, the purpose of this paper is to examine the development of one specific administrative institution, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), and the effect of its regulatory actions in establishing the SEC's own legitimacy with Congress, the press and regulatees, particularly in terms of the McKesson and Robbins enforcement action. Our archival analysis, using primary and secondary material, probes the SEC's efforts at developing a dramaturgy of exchange relations with its external constituents in terms of its:
1.
(a) conformity to sanctioned language forms; 2.
(b) use of both the acquiescence and compromise strategies in dealing with external constituents and in balancing needs for the appearance of regulation with de facto inaction in regulating audit practice; 3.
(c) development and application of a ritualistic pattern of interacting with regulatees. We conclude that in order to understand the SEC as a political institution, it is necessary to incorporate an appreciation of its self-interested behavior in terms of the form, content and rhetoric of its regulatory actions. A critical facet of early SEC efforts and success did not concern whether it did good in terms of applying effective regulations, or bad in terms of preserving the status quo in power relations among the business and political communities. The ability of the SEC to legitimate its existence and institutionalize its role in the financial markets and in the financial reporting and auditing communities proved more essential.

This paper identifies and corrects a typographical error in Black and Cox (J Finance 31:351–367, 1976). While the typographical error is seemingly trivial, the magnitude of the pricing error that it generates can be substantial.

This article derives international equity pricing relations by taking into account inflationary exchange risk under various
forms of market segmentation/integration. In a mean-variance framework, a two-country, two-period, two-goods model is analyzed
under three different market structures: segmented, mildly segmented and integrated. It is found that as long as investors
are consuming imported goods, in the presence of market frictions, inflationary exchange risk is an important determinant
of real equity prices. This is the case because inflationary exchange rate affects the real purchasing power of investors.

Home Equity,Household Savings and Consumption 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The home-owning family’s equity is a piggybank that can be broken open by borrowing. Each borrowing increases liabilities
and cash equally, initially leaving net wealth unchanged. When those funds are spent and cash balances fall, consumption increases
even as net wealth can decline. In a dynamic optimization, the marginal propensity to consume from net wealth is not always
positive and can be positively correlated with housing debt.

This article analyzes the phenomenon of performance persistence in Spanish equity pension plans between 1999 and 2006 to determine
whether plans with higher performance in one period continue obtaining higher performance in the future. It also aims to determine
the influence of past performance on investor behavior in order to examine whether money and investor flows of these portfolios
are affected by past performance. The results reveal the existence of short-term performance persistence and a statistically
significant relationship between historical returns and investment flows.

A recent trend in the German asset-backed securities (ABS) market is the securitization of subordinated loans and profit participation agreements (PPAs) granted to medium-sized
enterprises (MEs). This paper provides an overview of this growing market and analyzes the benefits of such transactions for
portfolio companies as well as for originators and potential investors. Simulations of 10 recent transactions indicate that
despite the relatively low interest rates charged on obligors, originators and investors can earn attractive returns at fairly
low risk. In particula, the junior tranches of these securitizations exhibit quite attractive risk-return profiles.

This study attempts to shed some light on the extent of non-realtor broker listings on the MLS and their resulting price and time-on-the markets effects. Using duration, probit and selling
price models, this study empirically examines whether the REALTOR designation provides a signal of quality that is reflected
in the price and time on the market for sellers. Results indicate that properties listed by non-realtors on the MLS setting sell at lower prices, take slightly longer to sell, and are less likely to sell than properties listed
by REALTORs in a MLS setting. Working with a REALTOR in a MLS setting appears to be advantageous to the seller.

We study the drivers of executive compensation in the listed UK property sector. The UK provides an excellent opportunity
to analyze executive compensation due to high transparency in the different components of executive compensation. We show that company size is the most important variable in explaining the level of executive compensation. We find that
absolute and relative share performance significantly explains long-term compensation, that management style has a distinct
influence on the level of executive compensation, and that using alternative monitoring mechanisms (institutional shareholders,
debtholders, and outside directors) leads to higher levels of long-term incentives. We find only weak evidence of pay-performance
sensitivity for both cash and long-term compensation. Executive shareholdings provide a much stronger link between pay and
performance than does executive compensation.

In this paper we investigate the tournament induced risk-shifting behavior of Australian “multi-sector growth funds”. We apply
a regression-based methodology and examine tournaments based on the calendar year and the financial year. In our core analysis
we find evidence in favor of Taylor’s (J Econ Behav Organ 1455:1–11, 2003) risk shifting tournament hypothesis for financial year-end tournaments. Apart from the standard tournament
hypothesis we also report a range of findings regarding stability; fund age; and fund size. Support for the Taylor hypothesis
generally continues across these variations as well.

We conduct an experimental test of a screening model of an insurance market with asymmetric information. We first conduct
three sessions in which the proportion of high risk buyers is such that a separating equilibrium should exist. We then conduct
three more sessions in which the only change we make is decreasing the proportion of high risks such that the equilibrium
is now a pooling equilibrium. In both treatments, the observed behavior converges to the equilibrium prediction.

In this paper we offer direct evidence that financial intermediation does impact underlying asset markets. We develop a specific
observable symptom of a banking system that underprices the put option imbedded in non-recourse asset-backed lending. Using
a dataset for 19 countries and over 500 real estate investment trusts, we find that, following a negative demand shock, the
“underpricing” economies experience far deeper asset market crashes than economies in which the put option is correctly priced.

We analyze director compensation for Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs) and investigate the relations between director
compensation and other measures of the board independence and board monitoring. Using 136 REITs in 2001, we find that REITs
that pay higher equity-based compensation to their board members are associated with higher financial performance. Our data
indicate that board equity-based compensation is positively related to the existence of an independent nomination committee,
however, it has no significant relationship with board size, proportion of outside directors, CEO duality and CEO tenure and
ownership.

This study examines the impacts of trails and greenbelts and other amenities on home value. Using the hedonic framework the
study provides analyses of a database consisting of roughly 10,000 sales of homes occurring from April 2001 to March 2002
in and around San Antonio, Bexar County, Texas. Among other things, our study shows that trails, greenbelts, and trails with
greenbelts (or greenways) are associated with roughly 2, 4, and 5%, price premiums, respectively. The following amenities:
proximity to golf course, neighborhood playground, tennis court, neighborhood pool, view, and cul-de-sac, all add significantly
to home value.

Spectral risk measures (SRMs) are risk measures that take account of user risk-aversion, but to date there has been little
guidance on the choice of utility function underlying them. This paper addresses this issue by examining alternative approaches
based on exponential and power utility functions. A number of problems are identified with both types of spectral risk measure.
The general lesson is that users of spectral risk measures must be careful to select utility functions that fit the features
of the particular problems they are dealing with, and should be especially careful when using power SRMs.

The contextual nature of the predictive power of statistically-based quarterly earnings models 总被引:2,自引:2,他引:0
We present new empirical evidence on the contextual nature of the predictive power of five statistically-based quarterly earnings
expectation models evaluated on a holdout period spanning the twelve quarters from 2000–2002. In marked contrast to extant
time-series work, the random walk with drift (RWD) model provides significantly more accurate pooled, one-step-ahead quarterly
earnings predictions for a sample of high-technology firms (n = 202). In similar predictive comparisons, the Griffin-Watts (GW) ARIMA model provides significantly more accurate quarterly
earnings predictions for a sample of regulated firms (n = 218). Finally, the RWD and GW ARIMA models jointly dominate the other expectation models (i.e., seasonal random walk with
drift, the Brown-Rozeff (BR) and Foster (F) ARIMA models) for a default sample of firms (n = 796). We provide supplementary analyses that document the: (1) increased frequency of the number of loss quarters experienced
by our sample firms in the holdout period (2000–2002) vis-à-vis the identification period (1990–1999); (2) reduced levels
of earnings persistence for our sample firms relative to earnings persistence factors computed by Baginski et al. (2003) during earlier time periods (1970s–1980s); (3) relative impact on the predictive ability of the five expectation models
conditioned upon the extent of analyst coverage of sample firms (i.e., no coverage, moderate coverage, and extensive coverage);
and (4) sensitivity of predictive performance across subsets of regulated firms with the BR ARIMA model providing the most
accurate predictions for utilities (n = 87) while the RWD model is superior for financial institutions (n = 131).

We examine the valuation effects of overall demand for corporate equities combined with the influence of abnormal earnings
and unexpected funds flow. Our results indicate that the expected and unexpected net new total flow of funds into all stock
mutual funds do not by themselves have a meaningful effect on firm equity valuation. However, we find the combination of unexpected
funds flow and realized abnormal earnings have significant and important valuation effects. Importantly, the valuation impact
is greatest for those firms with high earnings growth potential that also operate in an environment characterized by high
information asymmetry.

Bank Competition,Risk, and Subordinated Debt 总被引:2,自引:2,他引:0
Jijun Niu 《Journal of Financial Services Research》2008,33(1):37-56
This paper studies a dynamic model of banking in which banks compete for insured deposits, issue subordinated debt, and invest
in either a prudent or a gambling asset. The model allows banks to choose their level of risk after the interest rate on subordinated
debt is contracted. We show that requiring banks to issue a small amount of subordinated debt can reduce their gambling incentives.
Moreover, when equity capital is more expensive than subordinated debt, adding a subordinated debt requirement to a policy
regime that only uses equity capital requirements is Pareto improving.
