▼ The current economic crisis has had widespread impact on all financial banking institutions worldwide. These institutions range from investment banks to microFinance; institutions (MFIs), which provide small loans to business owners and entrepreneurs. MFIs have become an increasingly significant source of alternative funding for small businesses in developed countries, including the US. This paper specifically focuses on MFIs in the US because it is important to better understand how the current economic crisis may affect their business practices. MicroFinance; is generally known as the institutional lending of small amounts of money to borrowers to help build or grow a small business. Originally created in developing countries, microFinance; also has expanded to developed countries. Within the US, MFI borrowers often do not have adequate credit or collateral to secure a small business loan, and/or desire a loan that is too small for traditional banks to justify processing. This paper first reviews the origins of microFinance; in its international setting. It then discusses the importance and growth of small business development in the US, providing the framework of federal agencies and local programs on which microFinance; in the US has flourished. Next, it discusses key characteristics of the microFinance; sector in the US, such as its organizational structure, sources of funding, and borrower demographics. It then addresses some of the challenges MFIs in the US faced in its early developmental years. The paper then addresses social trends that indicate a strong social support for the continued growth of microFinance; in the US, such as a shift towards social engagement and increased interest in social entrepreneurship. Next, a review of the current economic crisis is given, highlighting key factors such as the tightening of credit by banks and the rising unemployment rate. An analysis of how these and other economic factors may affect the microFinance; sector is then provided, suggesting that the economic crisis will serve as a catalyst for growth and support of microFinance; in the US.

▼ My dissertation investigates the behavior of consumers and banks in the presence of government as the credit insurer of last resort. Consumers have an option to file for bankruptcy under law when there are unexpected adverse shocks, while banks, especially large banks, are supported by the government during financial crisis because of systemic risk. I explore the heterogeneous behavior among consumers and banks with adverse shocks. In the first chapter of my dissertation, my inquiry focuses on the heterogeneous behavior of households in filing for bankruptcy. In the literature, there are two theories in explaining personal bankruptcy: adverse event theory and strategic timing theory. Fay, Hurst and White(FHW) 2002(AER) include both financial benefit and adverse event variables in explaining the bankruptcy decision, and they find only financial benefit from filing is significant in explaining whether to file or not. Our argument is that adverse events may not work directly on bankruptcy decisions, however, they operate by running a higher amount of debt. Thus FHW's setting may not be appropriate. Instead, adverse event consumers' debt occurs after adverse events, while strategic timing consumers' debt decision and bankruptcy decision are jointly determined, which means their debt or financial benefit is endogenous; thus we propose that the endogeneity test of financial benefit is a way to distinguish the two types of consumers. Assuming only one type exists in the sample, we find support for adverse event theory. Extending the analysis to allow for both adverse events and strategic timing consumers shows existence of both types of filers, and strategic timing filers are more sensitive to financial benefit. Additionally, lower access to debt markets and lower income significantly increase the chance of strategic behavior. The second part of my dissertation is to study the effectiveness of the Troubled Asset Relief Program(TARP) on banks' loan to asset ratio. One of the fundamental objectives of the Troubled Asset Relief Program (TARP) is to stimulate bank loan growth. I use panel data to study the dynamic effect of TARP investments on banks' loan to asset ratio (LTA). I find that TARP stimulate recipients' LTA growth as a whole, and the effect is significant only for medium banks(asset between 1 billion and 10 billion), with an annual decrease of 14 percentage points in LTA with the LTA in treatment quarter as benchmark. In terms of a dollar amount, 7.71 dollar more loans are generated for every TARP dollar invested in medium banks, compared with the average level of the quarters before TARP. There is no significant effect on small banks or big banks. Using graphs and different regression models, I argue that the dynamic setting, rather than the cross-sectional comparison, is more appropriate.

▼ This thesis theoretically and empirically analyzes the nature and consequences of interactions between family members. The first chapter tests whether children's human capital accumulation was significantly affected by earnings shocks to their nonresident kin in the context of the 1997-8 financial crisis in Indonesia. The crisis produced sudden, heterogeneous shocks that facilitate the construction of an exogenous measure of earnings changes. Results indicate that earnings shocks to nonresident kin - including extended family and relatives living in other districts- significantly affected children's human capital accumulation between 1997 and 2000, and ultimate educational attainment measured nearly a decade after the crisis hit. Supplementary results point to intra-family transfers, underpinned by ex post altruism, as an important channel of causation. The second chapter develops a theoretical model of private transfers underpinned by ex post altruism among members of a network. I use this model to analyze equilibrium transfer patterns and inequality under alternative income distributions and network structures. I demonstrate the general intuition that transfers obtain in equilibrium when the amount of altruism is sufficiently strong relative to income inequality. Within the networks that I analyze, every equilibrium involving transfers takes the same form: unique income thresholds separate senders from receivers. Effective risk sharing takes place among senders and receivers, while those at intermediate incomes remain in autarky. Every equilibrium gives rise to the same set of allocations. I contrast these predictions with insurance-based theories of transfers in which risk sharing is operative for small in come differences and may fall apart at large income differences. The third chapter uses longitudinal data spanning nearly fifteen years to test whether transfers among family members within Indonesia are consistent with ex post altruism, against the alternative of insurance. I use the predicted effects of permanent versus transitory income on transfers, as well as theoretical predictions from the second chapter regarding the shape of transfer functions , to carry out this test. The results provide some evidence that transfer motives are inconsistent with insurance but consistent with ex post altruism.

▼ The creation and survival of SMEs largely continues to depend upon access to financing. When a financial crisis in the USA becomes a global economic crisis, SMEs and entrepreneurs all over the world suffer what can be called a double shock; a drop in demand for goods and services and a further tightening in credit terms. It becomes important therefore, to have a strategy on how to tackle the difficulties created by the crisis. Governments are trying to respond by helping to support sales and prevent bankruptcy of SMEs; by increasing access to liquidity, and by helping SMEs to maintain their investment level. Adequate responses of small businesses to the global financial crisis will determine how they will be impacted by the global financial crisis. Many research studies have shown how businesses behave in times of economic abundance. Although over ten economic recessions occurred during the past century, research on the response of businesses to financial challenges remains low. For this reason, the aim of this research was to demonstrate the response of small business owners and managers to the global financial crisis. To achieve this objective, the researcher used an integrated study method, as follows:  A systematic literature review of the importance of small businesses in the economy and the implications of the global financial crises in the world and the South African economies. An empirical survey was conducted on small businesses in the Nelson Mandela Bay area in order to demonstrate their response to the global financial crisis. The results of the literature review and the empirical survey allowed the research to come to the conclusion that during times of financial challenges, small businesses decrease the number of people employed (only employ the people needed), increase efficiency through management, and reduce costs through efficient operations. This study contributes to the literature on small business responsive behaviour during times of economic crisis. As a result, this study presents recommendations and suggestions to assist owners and/or managers to respond appropriately to times of financial contraction.

▼ The three chapters of this dissertation analyze how domestic and international financial markets work and how they affect firms and economic activity.The first chapter is joint work with Martin Goetz. It studies the relationship between shocks to local banks and economic activity, by exploiting differences in the liability structure of small U.S. commercial banks during the 2007-09 crisis. We first show that banks that relied more heavily on wholesale liabilities reduced lending relatively more during the crisis than banks funding themselves with retail deposits, suggesting that the use of short-term wholesale funding exposed banks to a sudden dry-up in market liquidity. Moreover, metropolitan areas where banks relied more on wholesale liabilities experienced larger reductions in employment and establishments during the crisis, suggesting that adverse shocks to local banks hurt the economy. This effect was stronger in areas with more bank-dependent firms, such as small businesses and firms with higher external financing needs.The last two chapters are joint work with Ross Levine and Sergio Schmukler. Chapter 2 documents several new patterns associated with firms issuing stocks and bonds in foreign markets that cannot be fully accounted for by existing theories. Three major patterns stand out. (1) A large and growing fraction of capital raisings occurs in international markets, but a very small number of firms accounts for the bulk of international capital raisings. (2) Changes in firm performance following equity and debt issuances in international markets are qualitatively similar to those following domestic issuances. (3) Firms continue to issue securities both abroad and at home after accessing international markets.Chapter 3 provides evidence on the different theories of internationalization by documenting the evolution of Tobins q around internationalization. We find that Tobins q does not rise after internationalization, even relative to domestic firms. Instead, q rises significantly before and during the internationalization year, but then falls sharply in the following year, quickly relinquishing previous increases. The evidence challenges the theory that internationalization produces an enduring effect on q by bonding firms to a better corporate governance system.

▼ The USA's financial and economic crisis spilled over and resulted into a "global" financial crisis (GFC) that impacted several developed and developing countries. Regarding the latter, trade affairs have been identified as being a major growth component for the economies of developing countries. In particular, numerous studies have highlighted the importance and benefits of international trade on a country's path to promote economic growth rates. In lieu of the above, the main aim of this study is to assess the impact of this crisis on the South African steel trade industry, with special emphasis on the periods 'before', 'during' and 'after' the GFC. Through efficient targeting of a specific sector and its industry within the South African economy, government entities would be able to determine the extent that they could gain effective targeting and allocation of resources. Past research papers, relevant theoretical frameworks and data have been taken into consideration to form the basis of our analyses. In essence, we analysed the South African economy as a whole and tried to identify its relationship with the trade industry during this study period. Therefore, a composition of South Africa's economic activities and an economic profile was also determined and discussed. In addition. we implemented Porter's competitive strategy and diamond theory, to identify whether the South African steel trade industry has a competitive advantage. From the analyses we concluded that the steel trade industry of South Africa was adversely impacted in 2009. the 'during' period of the GFC and showed the 'after' period as the recovering period for the industry. Evidently, there is a positive correlation between the steel trade industry of South Africa and the country's economy ' before', during' and after' periods of the GFC. This positive correlation can be contributed to the trade sector's influence on the economy's overall state, as imports and exports have been identified as a key aspect to economic growth, and vice versa. Identified recommendations include the need for more research on the South African steel trade industry's competitors, in order to realize possible opportunities for the industry itself and realize increased growth patterns, as well as extensive promotion that could lead to amplifying trade flows benefiting the South African economy.

▼ El principal objetivo de esta tesis doctoral es el análisis del comportamiento de las agencias de calificación cuando evalúan a las entidades bancarias así como el efecto que tienen sus ratings sobre los mercados financieros antes y durante la crisis financiera que se inicia en el año 2007. Si bien es cierto que en la literatura existen numerosos trabajos que se centran en el estudio de los ratings soberanos en cuanto a modelización e impacto que tienen los ratings en los mercados financieros, prácticamente ninguno de ellos se centra en el caso de los ratings bancarios y menos en el contexto de crisis financiera. El segundo capítulo de la tesis doctoral tienen como principal objetivo el análisis del impacto que tienen los cambios de rating sobre los rendimientos bursátiles de las acciones de una muestra de bancos de la zona euro antes y durante la crisis financiera. Con ello, se pretender dar respuesta a las siguientes cuestiones: ¿Los inversores tienen en cuenta los ratings a la hora de definir sus estrategias de inversión, es decir, las rentabilidades de las acciones se ven afectadas por los cambios de ratings? ¿El grado de respuesta de los inversores a los anuncios de rating ha cambiado con la crisis financiera? Para responder estas preguntas se utiliza una metodología de eventos que estima el impacto que tienen las señales de rating sobre las rentabilidades anormales de los bancos. Además en este capítulo se plantea la siguiente cuestión: ¿Las agencias de calificación tienen en cuenta los cambios que se producen en los mercados financieros? Para dar respuesta a esta cuestión se plantea el test de relación de causalidad de Granger entre las señales de rating, las rentabilidades anormales y la prima de riesgo. Los resultados obtenidos en el segundo capítulo sugieren que los inversores realmente tienen en cuenta los ratings cuando definen sus estrategias de inversión dado el efecto significativo que tienen los anuncios de rating sobre las rentabilidades de las acciones de los bancos y la prima de riesgo. Este efecto se ha visto afectado con el inicio de la crisis financiera al incrementarse la aversión del riesgo de los inversores. Además los resultados del presente capítulo muestran que los ratings responden ante las variaciones que se producen en la rentabilidad de las acciones de los bancos analizados y en la prima de riesgo. Lo que sugiere que las agencias de calificación realmente no adoptan una perspectiva a largo plazo cuando emiten sus ratings. Además debe destacarse que los resultados sugieren que entre las tres agencias de calificación, Moody’s se muestra más independiente de las variaciones que se producen en los mercados financieros. El tercer y cuarto capítulo de la tesis doctoral tienen como objetivo determinar el impacto que ha tenido la crisis financiera sobre el comportamiento de los ratings bancarios. Por este motivo, el tercer capítulo para el caso del Sistema Bancario Español y el cuarto capítulo para el caso de una muestra internacional de bancos plantean las siguientes cuestiones: ¿Se ha… Advisors/Committee Members: Pastor Monsálvez, José Manuel (advisor).

The empirical genesis for this novel inter-disciplinary dissertation was the devastating global financial crisis. A separate and simultaneous Irish crisis was located in the banking sector. The financial market domain, based in its own unique set of norms, and replete with shifting risk concerns and a criminogenic nature, exceeded the authorisations and boundaries of the regulatory control domain with disastrous results. These crises revealed market actor conduct control issues including: questionable risk management practices; fraudulent behaviour; breaches of trust; business culture concerns; governance, control system and regulatory failure; business disclosure and transparency inadequacies; ethical concerns including conflicts of interest; and, ineffectual sanctioning. They presented as both opportunity and motivational driver for the public financial regulatory reform agenda, a socially significant issue. The chosen research lens was the financial regulatory police pairing of criminal and administrative sanctioning, where the prime research issue was coordinated interplay strategy reform, targeted to improve market actor compliance. Three shifting paradigms, those of the financial markets and their two financial regulatory coercive control components, the criminal law and regulation, are the backdrop to the research interrogation. Each paradigm reflects a discrete normative system, and post-crisis each has not settled and is still shifting. Historically, they simultaneously developed and cross-fed. Hobbes and his contemporary Locke theorised contractarianism; the rule of law; and, political autonomy which the state took up from the market and re-branded as laissez faire. For modern democracy, Habermas has recognised that autonomy is the normative key with restriction secondary. Polanyi has argued that restriction was a societal countermovement which established control autonomies, which themselves required constraint. Within public regulation, restriction is regulation, a synonym for coercive control, policing, enforcement and ultimately sanction. Because sanction lies across both the criminal law and regulation their interplay is a vital concern. Within this public regulation, connections were sought between the two coercive policing components, the criminal law and regulation, so as to interrogate their interplay. Because it was ideally suited to a reform or change context the Kuhnian paradigm was engaged to accomplish this. This analysis entailed an instrumental approach based around the norms or assumptions underpinning the coercive control paradigms within the market paradigm context. Thus, a modern normative theoretical framework was developed to test the connections which were found. The framework drew upon both regulatory norms and rule of law values. It was based in Dicey’s rule of law values conceptualisation, drew upon Packer’s control and due process values complex continuum, and employed both Macrory’s accountability and transparency regulatory norms, and Braithwaite’s…

▼ The year 1997 was a major milestone for Hong Kong: it experienced the height of the Asian financial crisis and the sovereignty handover from the United Kingdom (UK) to China. Hong Kong in sharp contrast to its neighbours came out of the turmoil relatively unscathed. It recovered quickly after the crisis in both the real and the financial sectors. Critical to protecting its reputation as a financial centre, Hong Kong was successful in defending its pegged exchange rate regime despite repeated and concerted efforts of speculators to dislodge the currency. Why did Hong Kong avoid the worst of the financial crisis?The three main research questions posed in this thesis are: (i) What were Hong Kong's strategies in mitigating the worst impact of the crisis? (ii) Why did Hong Kong commit to the resilience of its currency? (iii) Was the recovery due to luck or deliberate interventions? These questions are answered by a combination of statistical, qualitative, and economic indicator methods.Specifically, the Iterated Cumulative Sums of Squares (ICSS) algorithm together with GARCH modelling is employed to identify break points in the Hang Seng Index in the lead up to and during the crisis. The least square technique is then used to quantify the contributions of policies and events to the unfolding crisis. Next, the Structural Vector AutoRegressive (SVAR) model is imposed to study the contemporaneous relationships between the real and the financial sectors. This study then draws on data collected from 20 semi-structured interviews with informed commentators to investigate reasons for the resilience of the Hong Kong dollar. Before conclusion, the Kaminsky-Lizondo-Reinhart (KLR) signal approach is employed to forecast future currency crises.The analysis shows that: (i) Hong Kong mitigated the negative effects of the crisis through timely and appropriate interventions; (ii) committing to its position as an international financial centre, Hong Kong defended its currency persistence; (iii) mainland China contributed in underwriting pronouncements to enhance regional confidence given the reunification.Enlightened by Hong Kong's experience, exposure to currency crises can be reduced with prudent policy interventions, trans-regional co-operation, and the backing of a large and cash-strapped partner.

The financial crisis has highlighted the impact of human failure on a global scale. The financial crisis has illuminated the individual, organizational, institutional and societal impact of dysfunctional or dark side behavior. This thesis explores the antecedent conditions that have the potential to contribute to the emergence, legitimation and institutionalization of dark side behaviors within the organizational setting – financial institutions. In doing so, the thesis draws on numerous public inquiries from the US and UK as well as a number of official government reports on the causes of the various banking crises that formed the basis of the global financial crisis. This thesis explores the organizational and institutional factors that can contribute to the development of dark side behaviors on a scale not considered previously. This thesis identifies the potential for a new organizational governance role for HR leaders that may minimize the potential for the institutionalization of organization-wide dark side behaviors. This thesis explores the theoretical foundations of HRD and challenges the performativity orientation as a facilitator of dark side organizational behavior. In doing so, it provides empirical evidence that the performance objective of many HRD practitioners may indeed facilitate the legitimation of dark side behaviors. This thesis also utilized a novel methodological approach to exploring HR interventions that may facilitate future inquiry of sensitive organizational topics. This approach provides a replicable framework for HR researchers to uncloak organizational behavior thought to be beyond the analytic gaze of the research community. Finally, this thesis explored how HR interventions can have a double-edge sword effect on human emotion potentially facilitating the emergence of an organization-wide disposition focused on dark side behaviors as a result of a positive emotional association with the organization.

peer-reviewed

Lessons have been learned since the Irish banking crisis, and important regulatory and supervisory actions have been taken both domestically and internationally. While, there exists an extensive body of research investigating the Irish banking crisis, a number of important questions remain unanswered in relation to whether the latent distress in the Irish retail banking system could have been recognised contemporaneously. To address these gaps, this thesis builds upon the existing literature in two ways. First, the main Irish banks are compared to a European sample of peers across a unique database of financial indicators using econometric analyses to see if the severe financial distress in which they found themselves could have been identified earlier. Secondly, using a case study approach, this thesis presents an original and detailed comparative analysis of the Canadian and Spanish retail banking systems to investigate whether any regulatory and supervisory lessons can be identified. These countries’ commercial retail banks provide a useful benchmark given their relative resilience during the Global Financial Crisis. The main findings from this research can be summarised as follows: (1) Statistical evidence is presented which shows structural differences in the lead up to the crisis between those banks that had to be bailed out and those that did not. In particular, funding structure was the most robust predictor of performance – banks with more depository funding experienced a lower probability of being bailed out. (2) In addition, robust funding models and vigorous liquidity management were identified as important determinants of banking performance. The Spanish case study found that Spanish banks were far more internationally diversified than their Irish peers – their balance sheets thus provided greater access to capital to cushion the problems they faced when the Spanish real estate sector collapsed. The Spanish banks’ unique use of countercyclical provisioning was also found to be a key differentiating factor. The Canadian case study showed that Canadian banks had higher capital levels, relied more heavily on equity and used more deposit-based funding structures compared to their Irish peers.

▼ Purpose - The study sought to examine the liquidity linkages between the South African bond and equity markets before the global financial crisis in 2008. Design/methodology/approach: The window of observation covered the period January 2000 to September 2008. In order to ensure robustness in the estimation, the study used foreign participation in the various markets as an additional measure of liquidity. The other liquidity measures considered in the study were volume and value traded of the various securities respectively. Time series modeling techniques were used in the estimation. An unrestricted vector autoregressive (VAR) model was estimated following which the standard innovation accounting techniques, impulse response functions and forecast error variance decompositions were applied. In the empirical analysis, the Granger-causality between the two markets was also used. Findings - While all the liquidity measures suggest the existence of linkages between the bond and equity markets, the direction of causality was found to be unidirectional from equity to the bond market using the volume and value measures. On the other hand, the foreign participation measure of liquidity suggests bi-directional causality. The study also provides evidence of long run relationship between key macroeconomic variables such as inflation, exchange rate and interest rate on one hand and liquidity in the debt and equity markets on the other. As empirical findings indicates that the linkages in liquidity between these markets positive, this consistent with studies conducted by Chordia et al (2003 & 2005) and Engsted and Tanggaard (2000) who found the relationship was a positive one. When volumes of trade and trade values, the study find evidence on uni-directional causality and strong bi-directional causality is evidence when foreign investor participation is used as a liquidity measure. In summary, there is a strong evidence liquidity linkage between the bond and equity market from the empirical results.

▼ This research critically analyses a significant yet, uncertain area of law in South Africa - the regulation of cryptocurrencies. Cryptocurrencies are digital representations of value supported by cryptography and function within a global computerised ledger system called the blockchain. Cryptocurrencies are multifaceted with its use extending beyond an alternative payment method. Cryptocurrencies are not issued nor controlled by a central regulatory authority, hence, they are not considered to be legal tender in South Africa. Currently, as at September 2019, cryptocurrencies are not directly regulated in South Africa. South African financial regulators, particularly the South African Reserve Bank and the South African National Treasury caution users about the risks associated with cryptocurrencies and vigorously indicate that citizens have no recourse to South African authorities. On the other hand, the South African Revenue Service indicates that citizens must declare their cryptocurrency gains and losses as part of their taxable income. It intends on regulating cryptocurrencies within the existing tax law framework by amending certain provisions to include cryptocurrencies and its use thereof. This research has shown that this position lacks coherency because it does not address the regulatory and legal uncertainty heralded by the emergence of cryptocurrencies. Significantly, cryptocurrency intermediaries possess similarities to traditional financial intermediaries. Thus, the applicability of existing financial legislation to cryptocurrencies and its use thereof is uncertain. This research serves as an initiative to reduce this uncertainty by analysing South Africa’s financial legislative framework, with the hope that South African financial regulators perform a similar task. Consequently, this unregulated environment increases the risk for cryptocurrencies to be used as vehicles for financial crime, consumer risks, and risks to the overall financial sector. As a result, this research proposes that an effective legal and regulatory framework must be implemented for cryptocurrencies and its use thereof in South Africa. In considering the regulatory approaches of international jurisdictions such as the United States of America, Australia and Japan, this research ultimately proposes that South African financial regulators adopt a functional approach to cryptocurrency regulation. This will entail a unified regulatory approach consisting of a blend of one or more of the following approaches: the development of an industry regulator over the cryptocurrency industry supported by the amendment of existing financial legislation under the aegis of the Twin Peaks model such as the Conduct of Financial Institutions Bill, 2018 and financial services laws, the issuing of bespoke legislation and consumer protection guidelines.

Mestrado em Contabilidade e Análise Financeira

Ao longo dos últimos anos o número de estudos que têm por base a relação entre a crise financeira e a estrutura de capital das empresas tem vindo a crescer. Esses estudos deram origem a esta dissertação, que tem como objetivo verificar se a crise teve efetivamente influência nas decisões das empresas relativamente à determinação da forma de financiamento através de capitais alheios ou capitais próprios. Apesar da crise financeira dos últimos anos ter atravessado várias fases, desde a crise do subprime, passando pela crise da dívida soberana, até à fase do pedido de assistência financeira por Portugal em 2011, o especial foco deste trabalho concentra-se no intervalo entre os anos de 2010 e 2014, uma vez que foi um período de grandes alterações ao nível das condições macroeconómicas e das medidas a elas associadas. As principais variáveis macroeconómicas abordadas pelos especialistas e que levaram a que fossem testadas nesta dissertação, são a rendibilidade, a tangibilidade e a dimensão. O painel de empresas da amostra é constituído por 29120 entidades portuguesas e os resultados a ele associados revelam que a variável rendibilidade tem uma tendência sempre negativa, enquanto a tangibilidade e a dimensão apresentam coeficientes positivos. Estas conclusões corroboram com as previsões da teoria da Pecking Order. Simultaneamente, chegou-se à conclusão que as empresas menos endividadas não sofreram alterações de relevo relativamente ao objeto de estudo mas as empresas que tendem a usar mais o passivo registaram uma diminuição do endividamento entre 2010 e 2013 e um aumento em 2014. O nível de endividamento médio de toda a amostra demonstrou um comportamento semelhante ao verificado nas empresas mais endividadas.

Over the past few years the number of studies about the relationship between the financial crisis and the capital structure has been growing. These studies have led to this dissertation that aims to determine if the crisis had effectively influence in business decisions regarding the determination of the form of financing through borrowed capital or equity. Although the financial crisis of recent years has gone through several stages, from the subprime crisis, through the sovereign debt crisis, to the stage of the request for financial assistance from Portugal in 2011, the special focus of this paper is in the interval between 2010 and 2014, since it was a period of great changes in terms of macroeconomic conditions and measures attached to them. The main macroeconomic variables addressed by specialists, and which led to them being tested in this dissertation, were profitability, tangibility and size. The companies’ sample panel consists of 29120 portuguese entities and the results associated with it show that the variable profitability always follows a negative trend while the tangibility and size have positive coefficients. These findings corroborate with the predictions of the Pecking Order theory. At the same time, we came to the conclusion that the least…

▼ I solve a consumption based model, with interfirm systemic risk, for a portfolio optimization with arbitrary return distributions and endogenous stochastic discount factor (sdf). The model highlights a new systemic risk: systemic allocation risk. In contrast to the case without systemic risk, the market and planner allocate capital differently. The externality causes the planner to reduce investment in the risky firm. The market, modeled as a representative agent, does not just ignore the externality and invest as if there were none. Instead, systemic risk increases the representative agent's investment in the systemically risky institution or industry, further increasing systemic risk. I introduce bailout of the financial industry and find it has a beneficial direct effect and a distortion effect. In some cases, investor moral hazard can make ex post optimal bailouts reduce ex ante utility - even when bailout does not benefit the financial industry's investors. I show that systemic risk, as opposed to systematic risk, can be characterized as a situation where the fundamental theorems of asset pricing do not apply.Next I put the the model into a factor model, using the arbitrage pricing theory for market pricing of the firms. I use the model to distinguish between systematic and systemic risks. By directly including systemic risk, the potential of an interfirm or inter-industry externality, the model shows that including terms with fat tails in specifications for returns does not make them systemic risk if they still meet the definition of systematic risk (Systematic risk is risk within a firm's returns that is both non-causal and correlated with the stochastic discount factor - and therefore undiversifiable. In a factor model, systematic risk in the financial industry is the overall magnitude of firms loading onto systematic factors. The systematic factors do not need to be Gaussian.). The model shows why systematic risk is so often mistaken as systemic risk, why systematic risk in the financial industry is important, and why it should be considered along with systemic risk in regulatory efforts. The model is then used to delineate and outline the various types of risk. This vocabulary can facilitate communication and research in systemic risk. Finally, I derive a popular systemic risk measure directly in terms of the parameters of a pricing model. I test the one that attempts to include causality in its measure, CoVaR.CoVaR seeks to use joint return data to measure a firm's contribution to systemic risk. To learn what comprehensive regulatory changes can do to systemic risk in general, and CoVaR in particular, Part 4 estimates the impact of the extensive and coincident U.S. regulatory changes of 1993 (including Prompt Corrective Action law and Basel I) on the systemic risk level of commercial banks, as measured by CoVaR. Investment banks not subject to the law are used as controls. In a difference-in-difference framework, the law is used as a treatment shock. Use of a novel CoVaR measure (unconditional rolling…

▼ The twenty-year period from 1990 to 2010 exhibited significant and consequential international economic phenomena. Global imbalances, primarily the U.S. current account deficit, were very prominent, along with the development and bursting of a real estate bubble, low interest rates and saving rates, and a brief shock to the oil market in 2008. This thesis addresses these phenomena. The first paper addresses the question of whether speculative oil inventories were accumulated in response to conditions in asset markets, and whether such inventories were the cause of the oil price shock. Using cointegration techniques, it tests whether the arbitrage condition required for speculative inventories to be accumulated held at any period. It finds evidence that above-ground and below-ground speculative inventories were accumulated, but not at the time of the oil price shock. The second paper addresses the issue of how to test the dynamic efficiency of an economy. The real estate bubble in the early 2000s and the correspondingly low interest rate suggests the possibility of dynamic inefficiency in the U.S. economy. Previous methods used to test dynamic efficiency are shown to be inadequate for testing dynamic efficiency in this period. Cointegration analysis is introduced as an ideal testing methodology for determining the long-run equilibrium relationship between capital accumulation and profit and whether any bubbles mask that relationship. It finds the U.S. economy became dynamically inefficient in 2000. The third paper proposes a model to explain the U.S. current account deficit, low interest rate, low saving rate, and the real estate bubble. The model demonstrates how the behaviour of all four variables could have been caused by shocks to the U.S. terms of trade. These shocks initially increased domestic saving and foreign income, creating higher demand for financial assets. Greater demand for assets started the decline of the interest rate. The trade deficit created the current account deficit. The declining interest rate created dynamic inefficiency, causing the emergence of the real estate bubble. Low interest rates encouraged domestic borrowing to finance consumption. Domestic saving rates declined while foreign income continued to increase. The effect of the higher foreign supply of loanable funds was stronger than the increased domestic demand for loanable funds, resulting in a low equilibrium interest rate.

▼ The major objective of this study is to identify the strategic responses by the selected major commercial banks in Kenya to the recent global financial crises of 2008. Many banks in other parts of the world were negatively affected and even closed down. It is therefore important to understand how the banks were able to cushion themselves against the adverse effects of the global financial crises. For this study the banks that were selected are Barclays Bank, Kenya Commercial Bank, Equity Bank and cooperative Bank of Kenya. Global financial crises of 2008 started in the USA where Banks doing mortgage faced a liquidity problem due to lending to sub-prime borrowers who could not be able to pay back loans. They would repossess the houses sold to other sub-prime borrowers. The circle continued until there were more houses repossessed than the market could absorb. The value of the property dropped and banks had a lot of worthless properties and little money to support operations. This saw some big banks close down or run bankrupt. This study has revealed the strategic responses adapted by the selected major commercial banks in Kenya to cushion them. This included prudent cost management and review of existing products and policies especially in lending. Among the fourteen respondents it was noted that all the banks strategically responded to the global financial crises in order to remain competitive. Using s five-point Likert scale with (A lot, average, less, No change and I don’t know) the study was able to reveal that more attention was focused on realigning and reviewing policies around products as well as prudent cost management. It is incumbent that upon firms keep on scanning the environment to identify any threats or opportunities so as to be able to strategically respond. From the study it is important to note that the banks responded in different ways towards the effects of Global financial crisis. While some were slowing down in expansion programs, others were accelerating in the same. Going forward it is important that Kenya Bankers Association which is a linking body and a policy custodian with all Commercial bank in collaboration with the central bank of Kenya to come up with a nerve centre for research. This would help raise a flag in case of any expected force from the environment. Banks should also invest a lot in research and development not only in products but also on matters relating to global economics.
