Ebook Bank relationships: effect on the availability and marginal cost of credit for firms in Argentina

Submitted by puput on Wed, 04/13/2011 - 08:34

This paper tries to evaluate the determinants of the variation in the cost and availability of bank credit across firms in Argentina. This issue has a high profile because many firms complain loudly about bank credit being too expensive. There is also widespread complaint about limited access to bank credit. These same complaints are voiced in many places, but in Argentina this happens against the backdrop of underdeveloped financial markets, not only compared to OECD countries, but also to emerging countries like Chile (Caballero, 2000). Stock market capitalization is low, and so is financial intermediation in terms of the ratio of M3 to GDP, or of loans to the private sector to GDP. To complete this picture, in the last two years high country risk, and crowding out by the public sector, have made the problem of credit constraints particularly acute for firms in Argentina.

Ebook Why Economic Dynamics Matter In Assessing Climate Change Damages: Illustration On Extreme Events

Submitted by wulan on Fri, 02/19/2010 - 07:27

Modelers who assess economic impacts of climate change face a dilemma that has been very frankly presented by William Nordhaus (1997): “After 500 years, global average temperature] is projected to increase 6.2 Cover the 1900 global climate. While we have only the foggiest idea of what this would imply in terms of ecological, economic, and social outcomes, it would make most thoughtful people even economists nervous to induce such a large environmental change.

Given the potential for unintended and potentially disastrous consequences, it would be sensible to consider alternative approaches to global warming policies.” It is thus not only outsiders of mainstream economics (e.g., Azar and Schneider, 2003) who question the legitimacy of the very low percent of GDP losses estimated by the published assessments of climate change damages (e.g., Peck and Teisberg, 1992; Nordhaus, 1998; Mendelsohn et al., 2000; Tol, 2002a,b), and the consequently unambitious optimal abatement trajectories prescribed by these studies.

Ebook Do Bank CEO Equity Incentives Induce Excessive Risk-Taking?

Submitted by puput on Thu, 01/20/2011 - 03:33

Executive compensation has leapt to the forefront of the debate surrounding the primary causes of the recent financial crisis. Numerous accounts in the popular press speak of greedy, self-serving bank executives who took on unnecessary and excessive risks that came close to bringing about the downfall of the financial system. Central to the narrative is the hypothesis that managerial equity compensation introduces the moral hazard for excessive risk-taking in the banking industry. Several academic studies articulate the view. Among them, Bebchuk and Spamann (2010) argue that the payoffs on bank executives’ option and stock holdings are tied to highly levered bets on the value of the banks’ capital, providing powerful incentives for excessive risk-taking. Can criticisms of unbridled executive compensation and excessive risk-taking in the banking industry be empirically validated? What are the channels through which executives increased risk?
