Macroeconomic risk and hedge fund returns
(Elsevier, 2014-10)This paper estimates hedge fund and mutual fund exposure to newly proposed measures of macroeconomic risk that are interpreted as measures of economic uncertainty. We find that the resulting uncertainty betas explain a ... -
Managerial discretion and efficiency of internal capital markets
(Elsevier, 2021-10)I use the staggered adoption of state-level antitakeover laws to provide causal evidence that managerial agency problems reduce the allocative efficiency of conglomerate firms. I find that increases in control slack following ... -

(Kaunas University of Technology, 2019)Pricing of financial instruments and stock market predictions is a specific and relatively narrow field, which has been mainly explored by mathematicians, economists and financial engineers. Prediction to make profits in ... -
Modeling heterogeneity in the satisfaction, loyalty intention and shareholder value linkage: a cross industry analysis at the customer and firm level
(American Marketing Association, 2016-02)This study examines the relationship between customer satisfaction, loyalty intention and shareholder value at the firm and individual customer level. The authors also explore industry differences by using a multilevel and ... -
Numerical discretization of stochastic oscillators with generalized numerical integrators
(Vinča Institute of Nuclear Sciences, 2021)In this study, we propose a numerical scheme for stochastic oscillators with additive noise obtained by the method of variation of constants formula using generalized numerical integrators. For both of the displacement and ... -
On the numerical schemes for Langevin-type equations
(Karaganda University, 2020)In this paper, a numerical approach is proposed based on the variation-of-constants formula for the numerical discretization Langevin-type equations. Linear and non-linear cases are treated separately. The proofs of ... -
Political connections and informed trading: Evidence from TARP
(Wiley, 2021-09)We study insider trading behavior surrounding the largest bank bailout in history: Troubled Asset Relief Program (TARP). In politically connected banks, insider buying during the pre-TARP period is associated with increases ... -
Price of regulations: Regulatory costs and the cross-section of stock returns
(Oxford University Press, 2024-01)Regulations introduce significant fixed costs and add to operating leverage. Fixed regulatory costs that contribute to operating leverage should generate a risk premium. To explore whether such a premium exists, we introduce ... -
Product market competition and the value of diversification
(Elsevier, 2023-12)I examine how industry concentration affects the value of diversification. I find that con- glomerates that operate mainly in concentrated industries (concentrated conglomerates) have higher diversification values. Using ... -
A prudential paradox: The signal in (not) restricting bank dividends
(Wiley, 2022)By restricting dividends in the weakest banks, prudential regulators counterintuitively induce more capital payouts in marginal banks. The potential for bank runs exacerbates the incentive to signal strength through dividend ... -
The real estate and credit bubble: evidence from Spain
(Springer Science+Business Media, 2014-08)We analyze the determinants of real estate and credit bubbles using a unique borrower-lender matched dataset on mortgage loans in Spain. The dataset contain real estate credit and price conditions (loan principal and spread, ... -
Securitization and economic activity: The credit composition channel
(Elsevier, 2017-02)Using an international panel of 104 countries over the period 1995–2012, we analyze the relationship between country-level securitization and economic activity. Our findings suggest that securitization is negatively related ... -
Should cross-border banking benefit from the financial safety net?
(Elsevier, 2016)Using bank-level data from 84 countries, we find that a higher degree of bank internationalization is associated with higher interest expenses. Internationalization is proxied by a bank's share of foreign liabilities in ... -
Systematic risk and the cross section of hedge fund returns
(Elsevier, 2012-10)This paper investigates the extent to which market risk, residual risk, and tail risk explain the cross-sectional dispersion in hedge fund returns. The paper introduces a comprehensive measure of systematic risk (SR) for ... -
Trading ambiguity: A tale of two heterogeneities
(Wiley, 2023)We consider markets with heterogeneously ambiguous assets and heterogeneously ambiguity-averse investors whose preferences are a parsimonious extension of the mean–variance framework. We study portfolio choice and trade ... -
Turn-of-the-month effect: New evidence from an emerging stock market
(Elsevier, 2016-08)This paper analyzes the turn-of-the-month (ToM) effect in Turkish equity returns. We show that the ToM effect is strongly significant in BIST100 index over 1988–2014, and distinct from other calendar anomalies. In particular, ...
