Abstract

Volatility is very much with us in today's equity markets. Day-to-day price swings are often large and intra-day volatility elevated, especially at market openings and closings. What explains this? What does this say about the quality of our markets? Can short-period volatility be controlled by better market design and a more effective use of electronic technology? Featuring insights from an international array of prominent academics, financial markets experts, policymakers and journalists, the book addresses these and other questions concerning this timely topic. In so doing, we seek deeper knowledge of the dynamic process of price formation, and of the market structure and regulatory environment within which our markets function.   The Zicklin School of Business Financial Markets Series presents the insights emerging from a sequence of conferences hosted by the Zicklin School at Baruch College for industry professionals, regulators, and scholars. Much more than historical documents, the transcripts from the conferences are edited for clarity, perspective and context; material and comments from subsequent interviews with the panelists and speakers are integrated for a complete thematic presentation. Each book is focused on a well delineated topic, but all deliver broader insights into the quality and efficiency of the U.S. equity markets and the dynamic forces changing them.

Abstract

Many companies still see marketing as a cost, not an investment. According to proven business strategist Antony Young, marketing creates positive value for a business or brand by demonstrating cost versus return. Young and co-author Lucy Aitken propose a radical change in marketing philosophy to an investment-led approach with a focus on value, not cost. The book introduces investment disciplines and strategies to marketing practices and gives insight into how marketers have delivered outstanding marketing return on investment. Finally, it provides a blueprint to maximize the returns from marketing communications.

Abstract

In 1908, Vinzenz Bronzin, a professor of mathematics at the Accademia di Commercio e Nautica in Trieste, published a booklet in German entitled Theorie der Prämiengeschäfte (Theory of Premium Contracts) which is an old type of option contract. Almost like Bachelier's now famous dissertation (1900), the work seems to have been forgotten shortly after it was published. However, almost every element of modern option pricing can be found in Bronzin's book. He derives option prices for an illustrative set of distributions, including the Normal. - This volume includes a reprint of the original German text, a translation, as well as an appreciation of Bronzin's work from various perspectives (economics, history of finance, sociology, economic history) including some details about the professional life and circumstances of the author. The book brings Bronzin's early work to light again and adds an almost forgotten piece of research to the theory of option pricing.

Abstract

Risk concentrations play a crucial role for the survival of individual banks and for the stability of the whole banking system. Thus, it is important from an economical and a regulatory perspective to properly measure and manage these concentrations. In this book, the impact of credit concentrations on portfolio risk is analyzed for different portfolio types and it is determined, in which cases the influence of concentration risk has to be taken into account. Furthermore, some models for the measurement of concentration risk are modified to be consistent with Basel II and their performance is compared. Beyond that, this book integrates economical and regulatory aspects of concentration risk and seeks to provide a systematic way to get familiar with the topic of concentration risk from the basics of credit risk modeling to present research in the measurement and management of credit risk concentrations.

Abstract

This book analyzes real options valuation for non-constant versus constant interest rates using simulations and historical backtesting. It provides a systematic analysis and compares real options valuation using constant interest rates and the implied forward rates with methods that simulate interest rates stochastically. Real options are investigated and combined with various pricing tools and stochastic term structure models. Interest rates for real options valuation are simulated by using stochastic term structure models (Vasicek, Cox-Ingersoll-Ross, Ho-Lee, and Hull-White one-factor and two-factor models) and by using implied forward rates. All necessary theory is provided in the book. The analyses were conducted using a proprietary computer simulation program. All results are explained in detail and rules are derived for application in Corporate Finance practice. The major change in this second edition is the expanded number of tested scenarios. The second edition contains an expanded number of tested scenarios covering the time period of the financial crisis 2008, one of the worst stock market crashes in history. The findings confirm the results provided in the first edition.

Abstract

En à peine plus de dix ans, parallèlement à l'émergence de nouvelles formes d'organisation (communautés, réseaux, etc.) et à la dématérialisation des activités, le capital organisationnel est devenu un thème central de la réflexion managériale. Sous ce terme, on désigne la capacité d'une entreprise à développer ses performances par la mise en place d'une organisation spécifique de ses ressources, matérielles et  immatérielles (compétences, savoir-faire spécifiques, éléments d'innovation et de propriété intellectuelle,  ressources numériques, capital social et relationnel). Il s'agit donc d'un levier fondamental, notamment pour mener à bien les opérations de croissance et de développement d'une entreprise. Toutefois, en raison de son caractère proprement intangible et ubiquitaire, l'évaluation et la maîtrise managériale du capital organisationnel demeurent des problèmes sur lesquels buttent encore les managers et dirigeants d'entreprises. Quel est le lien du capital organisationnel avec les autres actifs immatériels ? Comment quantifier le capital organisationnel ? Comment piloter la performance d'une organisation ? Autant de questions auxquelles ce livre a pour objectif d'apporter des éléments de réponse, par le biais d'une analyse théorique fondée notamment sur les témoignages et avis de responsables d'entreprises, et élaborée avec la participation active du groupe de travail de l'Afope. Il permettra au lecteur une meilleure compréhension du capital organisationnel, et de ses conditions de pilotage, en vue  d'améliorer l'avantage concurrentiel des entreprises et le déploiement d'opérations spécifiques (cas du due diligence).   Ahmed Bounfour est professeur à l'université Paris-Sud et titulaire de la Chaire européenne de management de l'immatériel. Il est l'auteur d'une dizaine d'ouvrages sur le thème de l'immatériel et de l'innovation.  Il est  par ailleurs l'un des principaux experts internationaux  du capital immatériel, de son pilotage et de sa valorisation.
