Abstract:

This dissertation contains three studies. Chapter 2 investigates interactions between antitakeover provisions and managerial ownership, two corporate governance mechanisms. Antitakeover provisions weaken the incentive effect of managerial ownership and magnify its entrenchment effect, and thus will decrease the effect of managerial ownership on firm value. I show that the value effect of managerial ownership crucially depends on the strength of antitakeover provisions. For firms with weak antitakeover provisions, managerial ownership enhances firm value, unless managers have very high ownersh

This dissertation is in the form of one survey paper and three essays on the topic of volatility.

Abstract:

This thesis consists of three essays. In the first essay, I show that information about dividends implied in derivative markets predicts future dividend growth and thereby improves the forecasts of short-run returns on the aggregate market. In the second essay, we analyze the impact of options trading on the price distribution of the underlying asset. Specifically, we show that S&P 500 futures finish in the proximity of the closest strike price on days when options on S&P 500 futures expire. We document that this effect is mainly driven by the rebalancing of delta hedges of the market maker. I

Abstract:

Securitisation has been viewed as a key bank funding, risk management and performance improvement tool over the last two decades. However, the financial crisis of 2007-2009 has shown that engagement in securitisation might create significant financial problems for banks and consequently lead to widespread problems in the financial sector. This, therefore, has underlined the importance of understanding banks’ securitisation activities, the benefits and risks inherent, and the consequences for the financial system. This thesis comprises empirical research on the effects of securitisation on bank

This dissertation consists of three essays on investments. The first essay examines the incidence, determinants, and consequences of hedge fund share restriction changes. This paper finds that nearly one in five hedge funds change their share restrictions (e.g., lockup) over the period of 2007-2012. Share restriction changes are not random. Fund’s asset illiquidity, liquidity risk, and performance are related to share restriction changes. A hazard model indicates that funds who actively manage liquidity concerns live longer by adjusting share restrictions. The paper examines whether changes in

The first chapter argues that the countercyclical workforce occupational mobility could be caused by aggregate economic fluctuations, as a result, the workforce composition shifts over business cycle, which in turn can affect how the economy recovers from recession. Using the Current Population Survey, I find: a) workers were more likely to separate from their occupations during last two recessions, b) the deteriorated economic conditions during last recession significantly reduced the average productivity change upon occupation switch, which suggests the additional occupation switches were tr

My dissertation consists of three essays on lobbying activities by special interest groups. The first paper, "Ex Post Lobbying," systematically documents ex post lobbying, the process by which firms allocate resources during the implementation stage after congressional authorization. Previous theories assume all lobbying is done ex ante, where lobbying activities occur before Congress votes. However, my analysis of over 633,731 lobbying reports demonstrates that almost half of lobbying activity from 1998 to 2012, that targeted specific bills, occurred ex post.

<p> In chapter 1, I show that since the Fall of 2008, out-of-the money puts on high interest rate currencies have become significantly more expensive than out-of-the-money calls, suggesting a large crash risk of those currencies. To evaluate crash risk precisely, I propose a parsimonious structural model that includes both Gaussian and disaster risks. I find that global disaster risk accounts for more than a third of the carry trade risk premium in advanced countries over the 1996 to 2014 sample period. I show that global disaster risk is an important factor in the cross-sectional and time-ser

Abstract:

Boredom has consistently been recognized as a powerful emotion that pervades modern society. Yet despite academic, literary, and media commentaries on boredom’s importance, it has historically received sporadic and sparse attention from scientific researchers. This trend of neglect has begun to change course, and researchers have recently made progress in measuring boredom in a given situation, generating a theory of boredom to account for its various causes, and documenting the correlates of boredom proneness. Nevertheless, some significant gaps remain. This dissertation contributes to the ri

The overall theme of this thesis pertains to agents' response, as a result of having debt, in the wake of the Great Recession. Two chapters focus on households-this has been my primary focus throughout my studies. The first paper examines the relationship between mortgage leverage and consumption around the 2008 financial crisis. Using survey data, we show that highly leveraged households made larger cuts to consumption following the financial crisis and that this was largely driven by younger households. Using a life-cycle framework, we investigate the channels by which highly leveraged house

Chapter One, A Forecast Rationality Test that Allows for Loss Function Asymmetries, proposes a new forecast rationality test that allows for asymmetric preferences without assuming any particular functional form for the forecaster's loss function. The construction of the test is based on the simple idea that under rationality, asymmetric preferences imply that the conditional bias of the forecast error is zero. The null hypothesis of forecast rationality under asymmetric loss (i.e. no conditional bias) is tested by constructing a Bierens [1982, 1990] conditional moment type test. Chapter Two,

This thesis is a study on corruption from an economics perspective. Corruption is defined as the misuse of power in public office for private gain.

In particular, it consists of three different studies, which focus on the causes of corruption, its consequences and measurement.
