The Effect of Regulatory Harmonization on Cross‐Border Labor Migration: Evidence from the Accounting Profession 下载免费PDF全文
MATTHEW J. BLOOMFIELD ULF BRÜGGEMANN HANS B. CHRISTENSEN CHRISTIAN LEUZ 《Journal of Accounting Research》2017,55(1):35-78
The paper examines whether international regulatory harmonization increases cross‐border labor migration. To study this question, we analyze European Union initiatives that harmonized accounting and auditing standards. Regulatory harmonization should reduce economic mobility barriers, essentially making it easier for accounting professionals to move across countries. Our research design compares the cross‐border migration of accounting professionals relative to tightly matched other professionals before and after regulatory harmonization. We find that international labor migration in the accounting profession increases significantly relative to other professions. We provide evidence that this effect is due to harmonization, rather than increases in the demand for accounting services during the implementation of the rule changes. The findings illustrate that diversity in rules constitutes an economic barrier to cross‐border labor mobility and, more specifically, that accounting harmonization can have a meaningful effect on cross‐border migration. 相似文献

The greater availability of survey data, a succession of papers dealing with the statistical issues arising from the analysis of such data and the appearance of software packages, such as UMDEP, have led to a remarkable increase in the application of limited dependent and qualitative variable models in economics. Economic analysis of the behaviour of individual decision makers often leads to models which are of a limited dependent or qualitative variable nature. This paper attempts to show how the use of these models naturally arises from the more general framework of modifications to traditional economic optimization problems. 相似文献

Adaptive learning in financial markets 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
We investigate adaptive or evolutionary learning in a repeatedversion of the Grossman and Stiglit (1980) model. We demonstratethat any process that is a monotonic selection dynamic willconverge to the rational expectations asset demands if the proportionof informed traders is fixed. We also show that these learningprocesses have a unique asymptotically stable fixed point atthe Grossman-Stiglitz (GS) equilibrium. The robustness of learningto noisy experimentation is studied using Binmore and Samuelson's(1999) deterministic drift approximation. Conditions on economicand learning process parameters for adaptive learning to leadto the GS rational expectations equilibrium are presented. 相似文献

When central banks adjust interest rates, the opportunity cost of lending in local currency changes, but—absent frictions—there is no spillover effect to lending in other currencies. However, when equity capital is limited, global banks must benchmark domestic and foreign lending opportunities. We show that, in equilibrium, the marginal return on foreign lending is affected by the interest rate differential, with lower domestic rates leading to an increase in local lending, at the expense of a reduction in foreign lending. We test our prediction in the context of changes in interest rates in six major currency areas. 相似文献

Although there has been enormous development of the theory ofefficient contracts in the last 20 years, empirical tests wereslow to come. However, over the last 10 years, a considerablebody of evidence has accumulated, particularly in relation tocontracts between firms. This paper develops a simple, integratedtheoretical framework to illustrate 11 testable hypotheses.The contract theories covered include risk sharing, principal-agentincentive models, transaction cost and incomplete contract modelswith specific investment, and the theory of relational contracting.The problems associated with empirical work on contracts arediscussed before setting the hypotheses against a wide rangeof econometric and other empirical evidence (including workon franchising, sharecropping, subcontracting, contract duration,private institutions, experimental evidence, and a wide rangeof case studies). 相似文献

The purpose of this article is to develop and test a model ofpolitical influence on regulation that incorporates both thecompeting interests of elected officials and the relevant institutionalconstraints. To do this, we focus on one channel of politicalinfluence: the appointment of agency leaders to a multimemberregulatory board. The model has two stages: first, a bargainingstage between the president and Senate in which they choosea target policy; and second, the appointments stage in whichthey attempt to implement this target by choosing the medianboard member. The model's empirical leverage arises becauseelected officials can replace board members only when seatson the board become available through term expiration or resignation.This yields specific predictions about how and whether eachappointment will change policy. We apply the model to the NLRB.The empirical results, investigating all appointments to theNLRB from 1949 until 1988, fit our theory remarkably well. 相似文献
