Abstract:
Stock options are used only sparingly in Japan. Japanese firms are more likely to adopt new stock option plans when they are more (less) owned by arms-length investors (stable and controlling shareholders). Those firms have significantly more independent boards and pay higher dividends surrounding the adoption year than their industry peers. These results suggest that firms adopting stock options endeavor to meet demands for good governance practice from arms-length shareholders and to follow good governance practices in other dimensions. The coexistence of arms-length, stable, and controlling

Abstract:
There are two common methods for pricing European call options on a stock with known dividends. The market practice is to use the Black–Scholes formula with the stock price reduced by the present value of the dividends. An alternative approach is to increase the strike price with the dividends compounded to expiry at the risk-free rate. These methods correspond to different stock price models and thus in general give different option prices. In the present paper we generalize these methods to time- and level-dependent volatilities and to arbitrary contract functions. We show, for convex contra

The practice of executives influencing their option compensation by setting a grant date retrospectively is known as backdating. Since executive stock options are usually granted at-the-money, selecting an advantageous grant date to coincide with a low stock price will be valuable to an executive. Empirical evidence shows that backdating of executive stock option grants was prevalent, particularly at firms with highly volatile stock prices. Executives who have the opportunity to backdate should take this into account in their valuation. We quantify the value to a risk averse executive of a luc

INTRODUCTION: Historically chemoimmunotherapy has been the standard of care in the treatment of first-line (1L) chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). More recently several effective oral targeted agents, such as ibrutinib-based regimens, have provided effective chemotherapy-free treatment options in CLL. However, these therapies require continuous treatment until disease progression. Recently FDA approved (May 2019), venetoclax plus obinutuzumab (VenG) is a highly effective chemotherapy-free therapy that is used over a 12-month fixed treatment duration (Fischer et al, N Eng J Med 2019).

Abstract:
In the ever-changing investment environment it is not easy to find a relatively safe investment option. That is the reason why a large part of investors (respective both, the financial science as well as the financial practice) is increasingly concerned with the benefits and risks of investing into precious metals. The aim of this paper was to find out how the prices of gold, silver, platinum and palladium have been behaving in the last 15 years, from January 2001 to December 2015. The prices of selected precious metals, their cross-correlation and their volatility in the last millennium as we

Abstract:
‘Nudging’ symbolizes the widespread idea that if people are only provided with the ‘right’ options and contextual arrangements, they will start consuming sustainably. Opposite to this individual-centered, top-down approach stand observations highlighting the ‘contagiousness’ of thoughts, emotions, and behaviors of reference groups or persons present in a decision-context. Tying in these two lines, this paper argues that nudging may sound promising and easily applicable, yet the social dynamics occurring around it can easily distort or nullify its effects. This argument stems from empirical evi

Abstract:
Human resources and financial economics research suggests that a distinguishing feature of new economy firms is their use of stock options to attract, retain, and compensate employees. Previous research has examined the relationship between the granting of stock options and the use of alternate deferred pay mechanisms (defined benefit and defined contribution pension plans) for non-executive employees. This paper brings these research streams together, examining whether the option granting behavior of new and old economy firms is differentially impacted by the use of these other deferred pay p

Abstract Background: More frequent molecular monitoring (qPCR tests) and higher adherence to TKIs in the management of CML have been associated with better clinical and economic outcomes. In addition, more frequent qPCR tests have been associated with better adherence to TKIs. This study estimated the overall impact of more frequent qPCR tests on healthcare resource utilization(HRU) and costs, stratified by direct (impact of qPCR test frequency on HRU and costs) and indirect (through adherence to TKIs) impacts.

Abstract:
This study examines how a Securities and Exchange Commission rule change affected the design of executive compensation contracts. It shows that a change in insider holding requirements for employee stock options led to a widespread decrease in the use of stock appreciation rights. Further, we find firms that decrease their use of stock appreciation rights compensate employees by increasing their use of employee stock options. The Securities and Exchange Commission rule change provides a unique opportunity to examine the use of compensation methods as it caused firms to examine their policies a

When restoring degraded landscapes, approaches capable of striking a balance between improving environmental services and enhancing human wellbeing need to be considered. Agroforestry is an important option for restoring degraded land and associated ecosystem functions. Using survey, key informant interview and rapid carbon stock appraisal (RaCSA) methods, this study was conducted in five districts in West Java province to examine potential carbon stock in agroforestry systems practiced by smallholder farmers on degraded landscapes.

This paper examines the executive compensation practices of listed U.K. retailing companies. We compare “New Economy” retailers (e-commerce/dot-coms) to more traditional retailers operating in the “Old Economy.” We also discriminate between recently floated retailers and their more seasoned counterparts. Using a sample of remuneration contracts for 549 directors in 72 listed U.K. companies in the New and Old Economies, we investigate the structure and level of executive (and nonexecutive) compensation defined as the sum of salary, annual bonus, and the values of executive stock options and lon

Abstract:
The main purpose of this paper is to examine two commonly used alternatives to traditional repricing (TR) of executive stock options (ESOs) in a dynamic agency model. TR practices have become obsolete since new accounting rules took effect in July 2000. To avoid associated variable accounting charges that cause uncertainty in future reported earnings, companies have tried several TR alternatives as solutions to rescuing underwater options. We justify the occurrence of TR alternatives and quantify the impact of the marking-to-market feature imbedded in the new accounting rules. We also propose

We review the European practice of fair value settlement of stock options after a successful takeover bid. We argue on both fundamental and practical grounds that the inherent complexity, arbitrariness and inaccuracy of fair value calculations call for replacement by intrinsic value settlement.

We find that under a wide range of plausible scenarios the reported expense significantly understates the cash cost incurred by the entity at exercise.
