大陆与台湾股指期货价格发现功能比较研究

本文利用日内15分钟交易数据,对大陆与台湾股指期货的价格发现功能进行了比较,发现沪深300股指期货和现货间存在双向价格引导关系,但在信息传导效率上,期货领先现货,对台湾市场而言,仅存在期货对现货的单向引导关系;期货市场在长期价格发现功能中占主导地位,但台指期货的主导作用要强于沪深300股指期货。文章从投资者结构、合约设计、交易制度等影响因素分析了两岸股指期货价格发现功能的差异,并提出改善大陆股指期货价格发现功能的建议。     

股指期货与股票市场定价效率问题

股指期货的推出,大大提高了股票市场的定价效率.在无套利均衡市场上,股指期货价格由相关股票组合的价格及持有成本决定,股票现货价格成为影响股指期货价格的主要因素.但在动态非均衡市场上,股指期货的价格形成集中并传递大量信息,这些信息通过股指期货市场与股票市场间的套利机制及时传递到股票市场,增加相关股票组合价格的信息含量,引导和发现现货价格,从而提高股市的定价效率.     

基于波动效应与价格发现的期指仿真交易研究

沪深300股指期货仿真交易的推出,对我国现货市场的影响如何以及这种影响是否有利于现货效率的改进。首次采用修正的GARCH模型和向量误差修正模型（VEC）将股指期货推出后现货市场波动性的变化和股指期货与现货市场的价格发现功能结合起来进行对比研究。结果表明,期指仿真交易的推出对于现货市场效率的改进确实存在正面的影响。其引入在短期内加大了现货市场的波动,但这一波动正是市场信息流动加速的反映,因而提高了市场信息的传递效率。同时期货价格领先于现货价格,存在由期货市场到现货市场长期的单向因果关系,说明期货价格具有引导现货价格向均衡方向调整的功能,从而在经验上支持了股指期货市场的开放政策。     

我国股指期货价格发现功能的研究

本文根据沪深300股指期货高频数据,运用协整检验、Granger因果检验来分析股指期货同现货价格之间的领先滞后关系,借助VECM模型和GS模型方法揭示股指期货与现货在价格发现和信息传导中各自的重要程度,得出股指期货价格和现货价格间存在长期稳定的协整关系,股指期货具有价格发现的功能。     

新华富时A50股指期货与我国A股市场价格间关系：基于高频数据的研究

利用五分钟高频数据,本文对在新加坡交易所上市的新华富时A50股指期货与我国沪深300股指现货和期货之间的价格变化关系进行了实证分析。主要结果显示：从目前看,国内的沪深300指数现货和期货市场在价格发现和信息传递方面居于主导地位。A50股指期货价格的变动对国内股指现货和期货市场价格的变动并不存在显著的领先和引导作用。     

中国股指期货和现货市场关系的实证研究

本文主要运用协整理论和Granger因果检验方法,并结合脉冲响应分析和方差分解方法对沪深300股指期货交易的近期、远期连月数据和沪深300指数数据间的关系进行实证分析。研究发现沪深300股指期货与现货指数之间确实存在长期的均衡关系,而且期货与现货市场的价格引导关系中存在互为因果的关系。现货价格对近期期货价格具有很强的引导作用,但近期期货价格对现货价格的引导作用却不明显,而且真正对现货价格起到引导作用的是远期期货价格。     

中国股指期货和现货市场关系的实证研究

本文主要运用协整理论和Granger因果检验方法,并结合脉冲响应分析和方差分解方法对沪深300股指期货交易的近期、远期连月数据和沪深300指数数据间的关系进行实证分析。研究发现沪深300股指期货与现货指数之间确实存在长期的均衡关系,而且期货与现货市场的价格引导关系中存在互为因果的关系。现货价格对近期期货价格具有很强的引导作用,但近期期货价格对现货价格的引导作用却不明显,而且真正对现货价格起到引导作用的是远期期货价格。     

沪深300股指期货价格发现功能实证研究——基于1分钟高频数据

采用Granger因果检验、脉冲响应函数和向量误差修正模型对沪深300股指期货的价格发现功能,以及期货和现货指数之间的领先滞后关系进行研究和分析.研究结果表明,沪深300股指期货在价格发现中起主导作用,期货价格和现货价格之间存在着长期协整关系、双向的Granger因果关系.期货领先现货7分钟     

我国股指期货与现货市场信息传递与波动溢出关系研究

股指期货与现货市场关系是监管者关注的重点问题。本文采用我国股指期货上市以来1分钟级高频数据,应用向量误差修正模型、方差分解、多元T-GARCH等,考察期现两市信息传递、波动溢出效应的影响。实证结果表明,尽管股指期货和股票市场之间短期内存在相互引导关系,但股票市场价格变动更多来自于自身影响,起主导作用,而且两市长期均衡收敛也是以股票市场占主导地位;两市存在显著的双向波动溢出,期货市场的波动溢出效应强于股票市场的波动溢出效应;两市场存在明显的非对称效应,期货市场对坏消息更为敏感,而现货市场对好消息更为敏感。     

沪深300指数与股指期货价格变化关系的检验

在沪深300股指期货推出两年以后,为了验证期货市场的价格发现功能,本文利用VAR模型对沪深300股指期货和现货价格的每分钟收益率序列实际数据进行检验.实证检验结果显示期货价格变化对未来现货价格变化有显著影响,持续时间可达5分钟以上,而现货价格对期货价格变化没有显著影响.因此,沪深300指数期货市场已经发挥了较强的价格发现功能.同时,我们发现对股指期货和现货市场而言,VAR模型具有较强的稳定性,在利用历史数据预测未来指数价格变化中有较强的实用价值.     

Almanac of anticipations: The age of affluence—of anticipation—of anxiety—of automation—of discontinuity—of longing—of overkill—of space exploration

With this survey of developments in the futures field since 1945, I.F. Clarke completes his present series for Futures. He makes two major points: that forecasting techniques have become essential tools in the management of change; and that nuclear weapons and ecological problems have added a moral dimension to the study of the future. In the next issue of Futures he will start a new series on the range of future-thinking in the USA, from the expectations of the first settlers to the Star Wars programme.

The Usefulness of Measures of Consistency of Discretionary Components of Accruals in the Detection of Earnings Management

Abstract:  Prior research has shown the prevalence of measurement error in models used to estimate aggregate discretionary accruals. In these models, the incremental information content of the various components of accruals is ignored. Limited prior research and data gathered from firms under Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) litigation indicate that managers use either one or more than one component of accruals simultaneously, in a consistent way to manipulate bottom-line earnings in a given direction. I propose two measures that capture the consistency between the discretionary components of accruals and test their significance in earnings management (EM) detection in firms that have artificially added accrual manipulation and firms that were targeted by the SEC for accrual manipulation. There is evidence that this information is incrementally useful in detecting EM. This finding paves the way for improvements in the discretionary accruals measure by including consistency information from the components of aggregate accruals.

Summary of Results of Survey of Seminar Attendees

Abstract

The Society of Actuaries undertook a three-phase research project on mortality improvement in the three NAFTA countries: Canada, Mexico, and the U.S. Phase 1 consisted of a literature review of papers on projecting mortality levels in the future and a study of the trend in mortality improvement during this century. Phase 2 consisted of a discussion of different facets of modeling mortality rates at a seminar attended by 79 experts (actuaries, demographers, economists, and medical researchers) representing different countries. The last session of the seminar consisted of the completion of a survey by the attendees to obtain input for Phase 3, which would analyze the impact of mortality improvement on the social security system of each country. This paper summarizes the results of the survey.

The survey results illustrate the difficulty in forecasting mortality levels, because the effects of many factors that could have significant impact on mortality rates are unknown. This suggests the need for dynamic forecasting, which allows for the possibility of random shocks. A majority of the survey respondents believe that stochastic forecasting models, despite their complexity, have significant potential to add value. Respondents also believe that both historical data and cause-specific mortality forecasts are useful as input and also in validating forecasts of the aggregate levels of mortality. The challenge is to develop more sophisticated forecasting models to produce results that are relatively easy to interpret and to communicate these results to the desired audiences, including the public and policymakers.

The survey results suggest that the aggregate effect of lifestyle changes, medical advances, diseases, catastrophe, and physical environmental changes is an increase in life span. However, there is much uncertainty about the future. Respondents expect that beyond the year 2020 the mean annual rate of reduction in mortality for males age 65 and over will average about 0.58% for Canada, 0.76% for Mexico, and 0.67% for the U.S. The results for the female age 65 and over population are 0.64%, 0.83%, and 0.70%, respectively. The age 65 and over population is expected to see larger percentage reductions in mortality than the 0–14 and 15–64 populations. The reductions in male and female mortality will be ultimately the same, and the mortality levels in the three countries will ultimately converge, although differences may persist for decades.     

Separation of Unit of Account from Medium of Exchange

The separation of a unit of account (UoA) from a medium of exchange (MoE) in the commodity–money system is investigated by considering explicitly a seller's choice of UoA in terms of either an MoE or a unit of metal weight. If the likelihood of debasement of an MoE and its rate are high enough, the price is posted in terms of a unit of metal weight rather than an MoE. Interestingly, this MoE–UoA separated equilibrium yields the flexible nominal price, whereas an MoE–UoA integrated equilibrium yields the sticky one. This implies the nominal price rigidity in the fiat‐money system where MoE and UoA are integrated.     

银行软件项目外包管理分析

一、引言随着国民经济的不断发展,银行业务与外部企业的联系越来越密切。银行正逐步成为现代经济活动的中心,作为数据处理核心的银行业务应用也越来越大型化、越来越复杂化,因此许多银行也把软件项目逐步由原来的自主开发转变为与公司合作的方式,或直接外包开发的方式,银行本身的技术人员也逐步由开发转向项目管理。二、项目外包的分类银行项目的外包有以下几种情况:①部分子系统外包,有时由于银行的软件项目太大,单靠银行自身的开发力量基本无法在预定的时间内完成项目,只好把相对独立的部分外包;②直接购买软件公司的成熟产品,有些金融软…     

银行管理信息平台建设发展的思考

一、目前国内银行IT发展现状及面临的问题 银行数据集中工作的完成,标志着银行的业务由电子化建设阶段转入信息化建设阶段.一方面银行数据的集中提供了丰富全面的基础数据,面对日益庞大的数据源,如何将数字转化为对银行有用的信息,并从中发现知识,为银行的经营决策提供支持,是摆在银行IT人员面前的一个亟待解决的问题.另一方面用户对银行信息的需求日益增长,如果银行没有一套完整、实用的信息管理系统,将对业务发展非常不利.南京爱立信公司倒戈花旗银行事件曾经轰动一时,其中一个重要原因就是中国本地银行不能满足爱立信全球总部对南京爱立信公司的要求:每周财务上报和每天贷款限额管理.这一事件为中国商业银行的未来发展敲响了警钟,如果不加快管理信息系统的开发,迅速提升业务管理水平,类似的事件还会接连不断地发生,并最终导致国内商业银行在同国外商业银行的竞争中全面溃败.     

Properties of time-series estimates of degree of leverage measures

Empirical studies suggest that time-series regression estimates of the degrees of operating and financial leverage have a tendency to produce measures less than one. According to ex ante theory, these measures should be greater than one for firms operating above the breakeven point. There have also been suggestions that the biases in these estimates may be attributable to an underlying increase in unit sales. This work presents evidence that these counter-intuitive measures are produced by changes in the firm's operating parameters (unit price, variable cost, fixed cost and interest payments). It further suggests that attempts to control for the underlying change in unit sales substantially increase the volatility of predicted estimates.
