成长冲动与风险对冲:经济政策不确定性如何影响企业海外并购

本文扎根于中国转型经济背景,提出了在经济政策不确定性影响下企业海外并购的两大动因,即成长冲动和风险对冲.同时认为:经济政策不确定性使得企业内生有机成长方式、外在本土并购扩张方式受到了阻碍;企业面临着因融资成本、非经营性成本增加带来的风险;此时,海外并购便成为企业的最佳策略.本文以2008-2018年中国沪深两市A股上市公司为样本,实证检验了上述影响机制.研究结果显示:经济政策不确定性较高时,在成长冲动和风险对冲的驱动下,企业倾向于使用海外并购来替代本土并购,且这种替代作用在非国有企业中更为明显.机制检验表明:成长冲动强烈、融资成本和非经营性成本较高、风险承担能力弱的企业更倾向于采取海外并购策略,以规避经济政策不确定性的影响.     

Noise traders,firm-specific uncertainty and technical trading effectiveness

This is the first study to document evidence of technical trading effectiveness at firm level in the Chinese A-share market by investigating the relationship between excess profits of technical trading rules and firm-specific characteristics. Our results reveal that firms with higher excess profits from technical trading have more noise traders and higher institutional ownership and that those firms tend to be growth firms with lower liquidity and higher firm-specific uncertainty. Further analysis shows that the profitability of technical trading rules is unsustainable and the excess profits of the highest technical trading profit quintile portfolio disappear in the following year.     

Impulse response function analysis of the impacts of land value-added tax policy on government performance

In this study, an epsilon-based network data envelopment analysis is employed to construct assessment mechanisms for government performance. Moreover, performance indicators of two dimensions of tax collection efficiency and financial effectiveness are measured. We propose a vector autoregression model in which all economic variables are regarded as dependent variables to address the disadvantages of traditional regression model. The conclusions are as follows: (a) measures of tax collection efficiency deteriorated, whereas those of financial effectiveness improved. (b) In an impulse response analysis of the model, an increase in government-published land values produced significantly increased tax collection efficiency.     

Volatility forecasting: long memory,regime switching and heteroscedasticity

In this article, we account for the first time for long memory, regime switching and the conditional time-varying volatility of volatility (heteroscedasticity) to model and forecast market volatility using the heterogeneous autoregressive model of realized volatility (HAR-RV) and its extensions. We present several interesting and notable findings. First, existing models exhibit significant nonlinearity and clustering, which provide empirical evidence on the benefit of introducing regime switching and heteroscedasticity. Second, out-of-sample results indicate that combining regime switching and heteroscedasticity can substantially improve predictive power from a statistical viewpoint. More specifically, our proposed models generally exhibit higher forecasting accuracy. Third, these results are widely consistent across a variety of robustness tests such as different forecasting windows, forecasting models, realized measures, and stock markets. Consequently, this study sheds new light on forecasting future volatility.

征占用林地生态公益林价值评估的探讨

国家重点工程建设常常需要征占用生态公益林的林地.在进行补偿时,如何评估此生态公益林林木的价值呢?不同评估方法,其评估价值有很大的差异.本文将征占用林地的天然生态公益林的评估价值定为以培育中径材为目标的同类林分用材林评估价值的三倍至五倍.作者认为这样的评估价值最接近现行市场交易价,能够为征占用单位和林木所有者所接受.     

“济南就是我的家”——济南外商服务月侧记

5月下甸,又是一个烈日炎炎的夏日,杰克·史密斯先生按照惯例早早就起了床。但与平日不同的是,作为公司行政总监的他并没有直接去自己的办公室开始一天的工作,而是手拿一份查体表来到了济南市中医院,成为济南市第二届外商服务月活动中的首项内容“为济南市外企员工查体活动”的第一批受益者。在经过非常细致的心、脑、血液等项目的
