Pay as incentive or pay as reward? The case of Taiwan

By the 1980s, Taiwan had gradually transformed itself from an economy in which labor was plentiful, while capital was in short supply, into an economy in which a surplus of capital was accompanied by a shortage of labor. For labor economists interested in rapidly evolving labor markets, there are many intriguing questions arising out of this transition. This study explores how conventional labor market and efficiency wage theories apply during this transformation. Based on monthly data over the period 1982–2007, we examine the linear causality between pay and productivity using Geweke's [Geweke, J. (1982). Measurement of linear dependence and feedback between multiple time series. Journal of the American Statistical Association, 77, 304–313] linear feedback technique. The results indicate that both pay as reward and pay as incentive behaviors are significant in the Taiwanese economy, with pay as incentive especially strong in the manufacturing sector.     

科学发展观是资源型企业实现可持续发展的保证

党的十六届三中全会鲜明地提出了树立和落实全面、协调、可持续的科学发展观的问题。学习贯彻十六届三中全会精神，很重要的一个方面就是要准确把握和自觉树立科学的发展观，不断探索实现全面、协调和可持续发展的新思路、新途径。这对于实现资源型企业的可持续发展意义尤其重大。     

宏观审慎的跨境资金流动调节工具选择和设计

本文认为,宏观审慎的跨境资金流动调节工具,应同时遵循适应人民币资本项目可兑换和宏观审慎监管理念的要求。由于银行在跨境资金流动中的地位越来越突出,以银行为调控对象,更能体现宏观总量和逆周期审慎调控特征。其中,银行短期外债和结售汇综合头寸管理是目前可用的主要调节手段。本文研究认为,对银行短期外债可建立全口径管理模式,根据短债风险状况分别赋权,实行动态总量调节和逆周期风险调控。结售汇综合头寸管理,可引入无息存款准备金制度,以银行在外汇市场上的交易为突破口,通过增加银行交易成本,促使其对跨境资金进行截流,起到分散跨境资金流动风险的作用。

我国发展市政债券的战略选择

从国际经验来看,市政债券是地方基础设施建设的重要融资工具,因此我国发展市政债券具有重要意义。该文从市政债券的分类与特性出发,分析了不同类型债券的特征以及发行所需要的条件,并提出了发行市政债券的战略选择：即优先发展收入债券,而一般责任债券因发行条件在整体上尚不成熟,应坚持先试点后推广的发展路径。     

Regime Shifts in a Dynamic Term Structure Model of U.S. Treasury Bond Yields

This article develops and empirically implements an arbitrage-free,dynamic term structure model with "priced" factor and regime-shiftrisks. The risk factors are assumed to follow a discrete-timeGaussian process, and regime shifts are governed by a discrete-timeMarkov process with state-dependent transition probabilities.This model gives closed-form solutions for zero-coupon bondprices, an analytic representation of the likelihood functionfor bond yields, and a natural decomposition of expected excessreturns to components corresponding to regime-shift and factorrisks. Using monthly data on U.S. Treasury zero-coupon bondyields, we show a critical role of priced, state-dependent regime-shiftrisks in capturing the time variations in expected excess returns,and document notable differences in the behaviors of the factorrisk component of the expected returns across high and low volatilityregimes. Additionally, the state dependence of the regime-switchingprobabilities is shown to capture an interesting asymmetry inthe cyclical behavior of interest rates. The shapes of the termstructure of volatility of bond yield changes are also verydifferent across regimes, with the well-known hump being largelya low-volatility regime phenomenon.     

Loss given default of high loan-to-value residential mortgages

This paper studies loss given default using a large set of historical loan-level default and recovery data of high loan-to-value residential mortgages from several private mortgage insurance companies. We show that loss given default can largely be explained by various characteristics associated with the loan, the underlying property, and the default, foreclosure, and settlement process. We find that the current loan-to-value ratio is the single most important determinant. More importantly, mortgage loss severity in distressed housing markets is significantly higher than under normal housing market conditions. These findings have important policy implications for several key issues in Basel II implementation.
