Optimal pair-trading strategy over long/short/square positions—empirical study

Suzuki [Automatica, 2016, 67, 33–45] solves the optimal, finitely iterative, three-regime switching problem for investing in a mean-reverting asset that follows an Ornstein–Uhlenbeck price process and find explicit solutions. The remarkable feature of this model is that the investor can explicitly take either a long, short or square position and can switch the position, with transaction costs, during the investment period. We run empirical simulations of such multiple-regime switching models. There are very few such attempts in the existing literature because it is difficult to find, first, an explicit solution to the problem and second, appropriate financial assets that follow the artificial stochastic process required by the mathematical model. According to the Monte Carlo simulations of the optimal pair-trading strategy, the mean daily Sharp ratio is more than 2.3, whereas the mean Sharp ratio for the historical simulation of the ‘stub’ pairs (combinations of parent/subsidiary companies) is 0.6886. We believe that the results obtained from performing the empirical simulations are remarkable and consider that the optimal switching strategy of the rigorous mathematical model is applicable to businesses in the real world. For the reference many pseudo-program codes are added, which can help to replicate the optimal trading strategies.

民营银行准入的福利效应研究

文章为改善中小企业融资难困境,文章运用信贷配给模型,讨论民营银行准入这项政策的福利效应问题。文章认为在我国金融结构发生深刻变化情况下,民营银行准入不会克服信息不对称这一根源性问题,准入的资产业务内容不同,民营银行的福利效应也会不同,总体上说这一政策的福利效应是有限的。

浅议广西农垦长期经济作物岗位经营权转让改革

随着改革开放的不断深入,广西农垦原有的长期经济作物经营管理机制已不能充分调动家庭农场职工的生产积极性,阻碍了生产力的发展。自上世纪90年代中期开始,通过将长期经济作物岗位经营权作价长期转让给家庭农场自主经营管理,完善大农场套家庭农场的双层经营管理机制,加强产前、产中、产后管理服务工作,特别是进行产品深加工、扩大销售,促进了农垦企业生产、加工、销售、科研、出口的一体化发展,极大地调动了家庭农场职工的生产积极性,增强了企业经济实力,提高了职工收入水平。但改革也存在一些需要注意和解决的问题。

压缩型工业化社会中的环境问题分析

由于工业化造成的资源短缺和环境问题已经危及到人类的生存条件，20世纪90年代以来，循环经济逐渐成为世界各国发展生态经济的指导理论和实践模式，但是由于压缩型工业化国家进行工业化的背景和条件不同，环境问题表现出与传统工业国家不同的形态，存在着多样性和复合性，因此，在应用循环经济理论解决资源和环境问题时应注意发展中国家的压缩型特征，各国应根据基本国情选择适合本国发展生态经济的循环道路。     

Microfoundations of strategic problem formulation

Before a strategy can be developed, the problem it is supposed to address needs to be formulated. We establish the microfoundations of strategic problem formulation by developing a theory that predicts a core set of impediments to formulation that arise when complex, ill‐structured problems are addressed by heterogeneous teams. These impediments fundamentally constrain and narrow problem formulation, thereby limiting solution search and potential value creation. We establish these impediments as a set of design goals, which, if remedied by an appropriately constructed mechanism, can expand problem formulation to be more comprehensive. Finally, we consider how organizations can improve problem formulation by creating a structured process that satisfies the theoretically derived design goals and detail a specific example of this mechanism (collaborative structured inquiry).
