Simulations show market size critical conditions outcomes: larger markets experience smaller productivity cutoff increases, while smaller economies face tighter regulatory binding and larger firm contractions.

Results point out the important roles of entrepreneurship and local governance in reducing the shadow economy. Remarkably, entrepreneurship reduces the shadow economy not only directly but also indirectly through the improvement of local governance. More interestingly, the indirect effect is even stronger than the direct effect. We also acknowledge and test the reverse path—better governance fosters entrepreneurship—and document heterogeneity across the six governance dimensions, with corruption control and administrative procedures exerting the strongest effects on the shadow economy.

Previous research indicates that voters responded to the 2007–2008 financial crisis by punishing the incumbent party in the presidential election of 2008. To further investigate the electoral consequences of the crisis, we use an individual-level data set comprising millions of loan application outcomes to study the impact of mortgage credit contractions on the 2008 House and Gubernatorial elections. We employ a two-stage approach to estimate the effect of mortgage market conditions on election outcomes. In the first stage, we construct a measure of the change in mortgage credit supply from 2004 to 2008, controlling for demand-side factors. In the second stage, we estimate the effect of this change on the change in the challenger party's vote share. Our results indicate no statistically significant impact of mortgage credit contractions on House or Gubernatorial election outcomes. This finding suggests that voters primarily hold the president accountable for changes in mortgage credit conditions, while lower level officials are not perceived as responsible for these shifts.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":46233,"journal":{"name":"Bulletin of Economic Research","volume":"78 4","pages":"826-844"},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2026-10-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149100383","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Financial capability is defined as the combination of knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors that enable individuals to make informed financial decisions and manage their resources effectively. Employing a deductive approach rooted in the theory of bounded rationality and behavioral finance, a questionnaire was administered to 402 first- and fourth-year students. Structural equation modeling (SEM) tested the hypotheses, revealing that financial capability is negatively related to domestic bias. Factors such as financial knowledge, attitudes, long-term planning, price and expense analysis, and preventive behaviors significantly reduce under-diversification in portfolios, thereby benefiting investor's financial well-being. The relationship is further reinforced by the knowledge acquired during the degree program although no direct effect of academic seniority is observed.
