Download or read book Capital Market Implications of Earnings Quality written by Bianca Ahrens and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2010 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In his speech from 1998 the former chairman of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Arthur Levitt pointed out that trust "is the bedrock of our capital markets" and that this must not be shaken by the erosion of earnings quality. He made clear that it is the challenge of the whole financial community to counteract such a development. This thesis deals with the question whether the importance of earnings for the capital market varies with its quality. The question arises, because in recent years a large number of firm scandals has shaken the trust in the reliability of reported earnings. In order to properly address the research questions, the literature on earnings quality definitions, quality measures as well as implications of earnings quality on capital markets is reviewed and critically discussed. The author investigates whether well known results concerning capital market implications of earnings quality remain stable for all measures considered. She answers the question of how earnings quality affects firm value, cost of equity capital, and the accuracy of analysts' forecasts taking into account the effects of determinants of earnings quality.

This book was released on 2017-04-27 with total page 583 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the United States, some populations suffer from far greater disparities in health than others. Those disparities are caused not only by fundamental differences in health status across segments of the population, but also because of inequities in factors that impact health status, so-called determinants of health. Only part of an individual's health status depends on his or her behavior and choice; community-wide problems like poverty, unemployment, poor education, inadequate housing, poor public transportation, interpersonal violence, and decaying neighborhoods also contribute to health inequities, as well as the historic and ongoing interplay of structures, policies, and norms that shape lives. When these factors are not optimal in a community, it does not mean they are intractable: such inequities can be mitigated by social policies that can shape health in powerful ways. Communities in Action: Pathways to Health Equity seeks to delineate the causes of and the solutions to health inequities in the United States. This report focuses on what communities can do to promote health equity, what actions are needed by the many and varied stakeholders that are part of communities or support them, as well as the root causes and structural barriers that need to be overcome.

This book was released on 2008-02 with total page 38 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper examines the institutional and macroeconomic determinants of stock market development using a panel data of 42 emerging economies for the period 1990 to 2004. The paper finds that macroeconomic factors such as income level, gross domestic investment, banking sector development, private capital flows, and stock market liquidity are important determinants of stock market development in emerging market countries. The results also show that political risk, law and order, and bureaucratic quality are important determinants of stock market development because they enhance the viability of external finance. This result suggests that the resolution of political risk can be an important factor in the development of emerging stock markets. The analysis also shows the factors identified above as determining stock market development in emerging economies can also explain the development of the stock market in South Africa.

Book excerpt: Efforts to understand the relationship between market structure and the quality of health services are complicated by non-random character of patients choices of where to recieve care. To address this problem, I construct an empirical model of helath outcomes for dialysis patients that accounts for the endogenous selection of which facility patients choose to recieve treatment from. The models estimates of facilities average quality are robust to both unobservable variation in condition severity and heterogeneous responses to different facilities treatment regims

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The relationship between institutional design and quality on the one hand, and the development and performance of economic organisations on the other one, has attracted considerable attention in both economics and economic sociology. This study focuses on the relationship between countries' political governance institutions and the development of the market for corporate control in Asia. Results suggest that the intensity of M&A activity in Asian countries seems related to features of the institutional environment that provide managers, shareholders, and investors more guarantees about the protection of property rights, the enforcement of contracts, and the stability of governance structures. There is some evidence, moreover, that the M&A activity is associated with relatively 'contestable' position of the government, possibly because economic agents may perceive safer from the risk of value expropriation of their investments through hostile government policies or because less stable governments are less likely to be deeply involved in political economy decisions. On the whole, these arguments contribute to contemporary discourse about policy initiatives intended to improve financial regulation, devise strategies for capital market development, and deepen capital market integration in Asia.

This book was released on 2015 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How do government policies and institutions affect stock market performance? As stock markets grow broader and deeper in African countries, the question becomes more critical. Government quality dynamics of corruption-control, government-effectiveness, political-stability or no violence, voice & accountability, regulation quality and rule of law are instrumented with income-levels, religious-dominations, press-freedom degrees and legal-origins to account for stock market performance dynamics of capitalization, value traded, turnover and number of listed companies. The results demonstrate a significant positive association between stock market performance measures and the quality of government institutions. These findings suggest countries with better developed government institutions would favor stock markets with higher market capitalization, better turnover ratios, higher value in shares traded and greater number of listed companies.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How do communities protect and improve the health of their populations? Health care is part of the answer but so are environmental protections, social and educational services, adequate nutrition, and a host of other activities. With concern over funding constraints, making sure such activities are efficient and effective is becoming a high priority. Improving Health in the Community explains how population-based performance monitoring programs can help communities point their efforts in the right direction. Within a broad definition of community health, the committee addresses factors surrounding the implementation of performance monitoring and explores the "why" and "how to" of establishing mechanisms to monitor the performance of those who can influence community health. The book offers a policy framework, applies a multidimensional model of the determinants of health, and provides sets of prototype performance indicators for specific health issues. Improving Health in the Community presents an attainable vision of a process that can achieve community-wide health benefits.

This book was released on 2021-05-07 with total page 55 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent years, we have observed an increase in low-income countries’ (LICs) access to international capital markets, especially after the Global Financial Crisis (GFC). This paper investigates what factors—country-specific macroeconomic fundamentals and/or external variables—have contributed to the surge in external bond issuance by these LICs, which we refer to in our paper as ‘frontier economies’. Using data on public and publicly guaranteed (PPG) external bond issuance, outstanding PPG bond stock, as well as sovereign spreads, we employ panel data analysis to examine factors related to the increase in issuance by these economies as well as the reduction in their spreads over time. Our empirical study shows that both country-specific fundamentals (such as public debt, current account balance, level of reserves, quality of institutions) and external variables (such as US growth and the VIX index) play a role in explaining the increased amount of issuance and the decline in spreads of frontier economies’ sovereign bonds. The impact of some of these variables on issuance appears to reflect a country’s need to issue bonds for external financing (‘the supply side’ of bond issuance), while others appear to correlate more through their impact on investors’ appetite for a country’s debt (‘the demand side’). In addition, the impact of country-specific variables can also be affected by external factors such as global risk appetite. Our analysis of key factors that have contributed to increased market access for frontier economies over the past decade provides important information to gauge the prospects for their continued market access, and for other LICs to join this group by tapping international markets for the first time.

This book was released on 2010 with total page 39 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Investors and market makers rely heavily on the trustworthiness and accuracy of corporate information to provide liquidity and vibrancy to the capital markets. A rash of financial scandals during the turn of the 21st century eroded investor confidence in public financial information. In response, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (SOX) was enacted to reinforce accountability for public companies and rebuild investor confidence in public financial information. We investigate the trends and determinants of market liquidity in the pre-SOX period, particularly when the wave of financial scandals was reported, and in the post-SOX period when the Securities and Exchange Commission issued rules in implementing various provisions of SOX. We detect wider spreads, lower depths, and higher adverse selection component of spreads in the period surrounding the reported financial scandals, indicating that liquidity measures deteriorated as a result of those scandals. We find that liquidity measures improved following the passage of SOX. The observed improvement in market liquidity in the post-SOX period is positively associated with the quality of financial reports, several firm specific variables (e.g., size), market factors (e.g., price, volatility, volume), and microeconomic events (e.g., NYSE Open Book). The improvements in liquidity measures after the passage of SOX were more pronounced for companies that were closer to compliance than those that were far from compliance with their provisions prior to SOX.

Download or read book Quality-Adjusted Consumer Surplus written by Yili Hong and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The traditional measure of consumer surplus (CS) (willingness to pay minus price paid) is captured at the time the transaction takes place, implicitly assuming that actual quality received (ex-post) is identical to quality expected (ex-ante). However, when the exchange of goods does not occur simultaneously when the transaction takes place, and for services whose quality is difficult to be fully specified before the transaction, the traditional measure of CS may be biased because actual quality received ex-post may differ from quality expected ex-ante. Drawing upon the economics and satisfaction literature, we relax the assumption that consumers receive, ex-post, identical quality that they expected ex-ante, and we propose, operationalize, and test a quality-adjusted measure of CS (termed CS') in the context of online markets for IT services. Our empirical results first show that the traditional measure of CS systematically over-estimates surplus than the quality-adjusted measure CS'. Second, quality-adjusted CS' better predicts consumers' subsequent transactions (i.e., consumer continuance in the online market, number of future contracts, and total spending) while the traditional measure of CS fails to predict consumers' subsequent transactions. This finding suggests that quality-adjusted CS' is a more realistic estimate of consumer surplus by predicting future transactions. Building upon expectation confirmation theory, we examine the difference between the two surplus measures (termed ∆CS), which reflects “surprise utility” from ex-post confirmation of expectations. Surprise utility (∆CS) (either positive or negative) is determined by market immaturity, consumers' lack of experience in the market, and consumers' lack of familiarity with IT service providers. Implications for developing a more conservative (quality-adjusted) measure of consumer surplus that better reflects economic reality are discussed.

This book was released on 2017-09-27 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Evidence indicates that actions within four main themes (early child development fair employment and decent work social protection and the living environment) are likely to have the greatest impact on the social determinants of health and health inequities. A systematic search and analysis of recommendations and policy guidelines from intergovernmental organizations and international bodies identified practical policy options for action on social determinants within these four themes. Policy options focused on early childhood education and care; child poverty; investment strategies for an inclusive economy; active labour market programmes; working conditions; social cash transfers; affordable housing; and planning and regulatory mechanisms to improve air quality and mitigate climate change. Applying combinations of these policy options alongside effective governance for health equity should enable WHO European Region Member States to reduce health inequities and synergize efforts to achieve the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals.
