Book Synopsis Capital Mobility and Asset Pricing by : Darrell Duffie
Download or read book Capital Mobility and Asset Pricing written by Darrell Duffie and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We present a model for the equilibrium movement of capital between asset markets that are distinguished only by the levels of capital invested in each. Investment in that market with the greatest amount of capital earns the lowest risk premium. Intermediaries optimally trade off the costs of intermediation against fees that depend on the gain they can offer to investors for moving their capital to the market with the higher mean return. Those fees also depend on the bargaining power of the investor, in light of potential alternative intermediaries. In equilibrium, the speeds of adjustment of mean returns and of capital between the two markets are increasing in the degree to which capital is imbalanced between the two markets.
Book Synopsis Business Cycles and Asset Pricing Implications of Limited Capital Mobility and the Effects of Information Diffusion for Cross-sectional Asset Pricing by : Athanasios Bolmatis
Download or read book Business Cycles and Asset Pricing Implications of Limited Capital Mobility and the Effects of Information Diffusion for Cross-sectional Asset Pricing written by Athanasios Bolmatis and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this dissertation is twofold. First it studies the implications of limited capital mobility due to financial frictions for business cycles and asset prices, and; second, studies the importance of information for correctly pricing portfolios of assets. The first purpose is achieved by using the model of Azariadis and Kaas (2005) as a point of departure while for the second the current literature on multifactor asset pricing is extended by considering information based factors.
Book Synopsis Essays on Human Capital Mobility and Asset Pricing by : Andres Francisco Donangelo

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This dissertation explores the intersection between labor and financial markets, in which labor mobility plays a fundamental role. Unlike physical assets such as buildings or machines, human capital can actually walk away from the firm as employees and managers switch employers. The interaction between labor mobility, firm risk and human capital has been remarkably under-researched until now. The main question of this broad project is how differences in the flexibility of workers to find employment across different industries--labor mobility--affects the owners of human and physical capital. The three parts of the dissertation look at this question from different angles. The first part, Labor Mobility and the Cross-Section of Expected Returns, focuses on the effect of labor mobility on the degree of operating leverage of a firm and thus on asset returns. I construct a dynamic model where worker's employment decisions affect the productivity of capital and asset prices in predictable ways. The model shows that reliance on a workforce with flexibility to enter and exit an industry translates into a form of operating leverage that amplifies equity-holders' exposure to productivity shocks. Consequently, firms in an industry with mobile workers have higher systematic risk loadings and higher expected asset returns. I use data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics to construct a novel measure of labor supply mobility, in line with the model, based on the composition of occupations across industries over time. I document a positive and economically significant cross-sectional relation between measures of labor mobility, operating leverage, and expected asset returns. This relation is not explained by firm characteristics known in the literature to predict expected returns. The second part, Aggregate Asset-Pricing Implications of Human Capital Mobility in General Equilibrium, extends the model in the first chapter to consider the general equilibrium implications of labor mobility. The setup is based on a multi-industry dynamic economy with production. The extended model shows that mobility of labor affects not only cash-flows, but also aggregate risk, and the equity premium. This part considers two different types of human capital. Generalist human capital can move between industries, while specialized human capital and physical capital cannot. The greater relative mobility of human capital relative to physical capital affects how aggregate risk in the economy is split between these two components of total wealth. The model shows that aggregate consumption and wealth increase when human capital is more mobile. However, at the same time, aggregate risk and the equity risk premium also increase under human capital mobility. I assume that the workforce in the economy is exogenously given in the first two chapters of this dissertation. This assumption is relaxed in the third chapter, Investments in Human Capital and Expected Asset Returns, where I endogenize the composition of occupations to discuss the interaction between human capital investments and labor mobility. This chapter focuses on the decision of workers to acquire different types of costly human capital with different degrees of associated labor mobility. This part introduces a two-sector general-equilibrium model with production and investments in human capital (i.e. education). Ex-ante identical workers face a trade-off between breadth and depth in the acquisition of industry-specific labor productivity. This chapter derives sufficient conditions for the existence of mobile workers. When these conditions are met, a fraction of workers chooses to acquire mobile but less productive generalist skills, even when labor risk can be fully hedged in financial markets.

Book Synopsis A New Model of Capital Asset Prices by : James W. Kolari
Download or read book A New Model of Capital Asset Prices written by James W. Kolari and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-03-01 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book proposes a new capital asset pricing model dubbed the ZCAPM that outperforms other popular models in empirical tests using US stock returns. The ZCAPM is derived from Fischer Black’s well-known zero-beta CAPM, itself a more general form of the famous capital asset pricing model (CAPM) by 1990 Nobel Laureate William Sharpe and others. It is widely accepted that the CAPM has failed in its theoretical relation between market beta risk and average stock returns, as numerous studies have shown that it does not work in the real world with empirical stock return data. The upshot of the CAPM’s failure is that many new factors have been proposed by researchers. However, the number of factors proposed by authors has steadily increased into the hundreds over the past three decades. This new ZCAPM is a path-breaking asset pricing model that is shown to outperform popular models currently in practice in finance across different test assets and time periods. Since asset pricing is central to the field of finance, it can be broadly employed across many areas, including investment analysis, cost of equity analyses, valuation, corporate decision making, pension portfolio management, etc. The ZCAPM represents a revolution in finance that proves the CAPM as conceived by Sharpe and others is alive and well in a new form, and will certainly be of interest to academics, researchers, students, and professionals of finance, investing, and economics.

Book Synopsis Slow Moving Capital by : Mark Mitchell
Download or read book Slow Moving Capital written by Mark Mitchell and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We study three cases in which specialized arbitrageurs lost significant amounts of capital and, as a result, became liquidity demanders rather than providers. The effects on security markets were large and persistent: Prices dropped relative to fundamentals and the rebound took months. While multi-strategy hedge funds who were not capital constrained increased their positions, a large fraction of these funds actually acted as net sellers consistent with the view that information barriers within a firm (not just relative to outside investors) can lead to capital constraints for trading desks with mark-to-market losses. Our findings suggest that real world frictions impede arbitrage capital.

This book was released on 2009-04 with total page 77 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Research Paper (undergraduate) from the year 2007 in the subject Business economics - Investment and Finance, grade: 1,0, University of Applied Sciences Berlin, course: Financial Management, language: English, abstract: In everything you do, or don't do, there is a chance that something will happen that you didn't count on. Risk is the potential for unexpected things to happen. Risk aversion is a common thing among almost all investors. Investors generally dislike uncertainty or risk and agree that a safe dollar is worth more than a risky one. Therefore, investors will have to be persuaded to take higher risk by the offer of higher returns. In this investment context, the additional compensation for taking on higher risk is a higher rate of return.Every investment has a risk element: The investor will always not be certainwhether the investment will be able to generate the required income. The degree of risk defers from industry to industry but also from company to company. It is not possible to eliminate the investment risk altogether but to reduce is. Nevertheless, often there remains a risky part. According to the degree of risk, the investor demands a corresponding rate of return that is, of course, higher than the rate of return of risk-free investments. Taking on a risk should be paid off. The Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) is an economic model for valuing stocks, securities, derivatives and/or assets by relating risk and expected rate of return. CAPM is based on the idea that investors demand additional expected return if they are asked to accept additional risk.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Research Paper (undergraduate) from the year 2008 in the subject Business economics - Banking, Stock Exchanges, Insurance, Accounting, grade: 1,3, University of Cooperative Education, language: English, abstract: The objective of this paper is to give an overview of the most important movements of the complex area of asset pricing. This will be tried by logically structuring and building up the topic from its origins, the Capital Asset Pricing Model, and then over its main points of critique, in order to arrive at the different options developed by financial science that try to resolve those problematic aspects. Due to the complexity of this subject and the limited scope of this paper, obviously it will not be possible to discuss each model or movement in depth. Coherently, the aim is to point out the main thoughts of each aspect discussed. For further information, especially concerning the deeper mathematical backgrounds and derivations of the models, the author would like to refer the reader to the books mentioned in this paper. Many of those works, finance journal publications and the literature on asset pricing in general, set their focus on different parts of this paper, which again underlines the complexity in terms of scientific scope and intellectual and mathematical intricacy of this topic.

Book Synopsis International Capital Flows by : Martin Feldstein
Download or read book International Capital Flows written by Martin Feldstein and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2007-12-01 with total page 500 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recent changes in technology, along with the opening up of many regions previously closed to investment, have led to explosive growth in the international movement of capital. Flows from foreign direct investment and debt and equity financing can bring countries substantial gains by augmenting local savings and by improving technology and incentives. Investing companies acquire market access, lower cost inputs, and opportunities for profitable introductions of production methods in the countries where they invest. But, as was underscored recently by the economic and financial crises in several Asian countries, capital flows can also bring risks. Although there is no simple explanation of the currency crisis in Asia, it is clear that fixed exchange rates and chronic deficits increased the likelihood of a breakdown. Similarly, during the 1970s, the United States and other industrial countries loaned OPEC surpluses to borrowers in Latin America. But when the U.S. Federal Reserve raised interest rates to control soaring inflation, the result was a widespread debt moratorium in Latin America as many countries throughout the region struggled to pay the high interest on their foreign loans. International Capital Flows contains recent work by eminent scholars and practitioners on the experience of capital flows to Latin America, Asia, and eastern Europe. These papers discuss the role of banks, equity markets, and foreign direct investment in international capital flows, and the risks that investors and others face with these transactions. By focusing on capital flows' productivity and determinants, and the policy issues they raise, this collection is a valuable resource for economists, policymakers, and financial market participants.
