Abstract:
Attempts to comprehend contemporary world finance are confronted by a dual problematic: inquiry encounters not only significant change that cannot easily be captured, but also the predominance of neo-classical economics as a mode of knowledge. By taking as its starting point existing research in the field of International Political Economy (IPE) and grounding inquiry in an 'Historical IPE' approach, 'World Financial Orders and World Financial Centres' offers an alternative mode of knowledge of contemporary world finance. An Historical IPE of world finance proceeds by focusing upon the changing

Contagion has been described as the spread of idiosyncratic shocks from one market to another in times of financial turmoil. In this work, contagion has been modelled using a global factor to capture the general market movements and idiosyncratic shocks are used to capture co-movements and volatility spill-over between markets. Many previous studies have used pre-specified turmoil and calm periods to understand when contagion occurs.

Directional change (DC) is a new concept for summarizing market dynamics. Instead of sampling the financial market at fixed intervals as in the traditional time series analysis, by contrast, DC is data-driven: the price change itself dictates when a price is recorded. DC provides us with a complementary way to extract information from data. The data sampled at irregular time intervals in DC allows us to observe features that may not be recognized under time series.

Despite the amount of ongoing intensive research to prevent cancer, tumor cells continue to evade immune responses. Currently, dendritic cell vaccines are in development, in which autologous antigen-loaded dendritic cells are injected back into the patient in order to generate an appropriate immune response.

Abstract:
This article analyzes to what extend new knowledge and ignorance-structures within financial markets challenge basic assumptions in scientific discourse. ‘Ignorance’ is seen as an inherent part of governance-regimes. It is argued that the self-fulfilling prophecy of a bank run as the dominant metaphor for systemic risks is insufficient to capture today’s dynamics and categorical changes. Therefore, the paper seeks to show that ‘science’ has not sufficiently attempted to fully come to terms with issues of uncertainty and self-reference.

Abstract:
<p> The challenges of Big Data (BD) and Big Data Analytics (BDA) have attracted disproportionately less attention than the overwhelmingly espoused benefits and game-changing promises. While many studies have examined BD challenges across multiple industry verticals, very few have focused on the challenges of implementing BDA solutions. Fewer of these studies have focused directly on the financial services industry, and none have quantifiably measured the severities of the challenges. That created gaps as BDA solution implementers in the financial services industry could neither access a roadma
