We posit that the financial market comprises a risk-free asset and a risky asset that follows a general stochastic volatility model. The objective of the wage earner is to identify optimal investment, consumption, and life insurance strategies that maximize the expected utility of discounted intertemporal consumption, legacy wealth, and terminal wealth throughout the uncertain lifespan. Using the dynamic programming principle, we derive the Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman (HJB) equation to describe the optimal investment–consumption–insurance strategy and its corresponding value function. By solving the HJB equations, we derive the analytical solutions for the optimal strategy and value function in the cases of the exponential-polynomial form and the Heston's stochastic volatility model. Through numerical simulations, we investigate the impact of several parameters, providing further economic insights obtained in this study.","PeriodicalId":46664,"journal":{"name":"International Review of Finance","volume":"25 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2025-05-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/irfi.70025","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144148258","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study adds to the literature by empirically examining the impact of the domestic monetary policy shock on FPI flows to India using the structural VAR methodology. It further disaggregates the analysis of FPI flows into portfolio equity flows (PEF) and portfolio debt flows (PDF) to investigate whether a domestic monetary policy shock affects the two flows similarly or differently. The study finds that domestic monetary policy shock (measured through shocks to interest rate differential and domestic money supply growth) significantly influences FPI flows to India, explaining about 10.1% of the total variation in these flows. The disaggregated analysis of FPI also reveals similar results for both portfolio equity flows and portfolio debt flows; however, the impact of the domestic monetary policy shock is greater on the debt component of FPI (portfolio debt flows) than on the equity component of FPI (portfolio equity flows).","PeriodicalId":46664,"journal":{"name":"International Review of Finance","volume":"25 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2025-05-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143944452","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}

This study examines how agricultural production loans influence farmers' crop storage decisions. Based on a theoretical two-period household model, we demonstrate that the net effect of such loans on grain storage behavior is ambiguous, contingent upon the relative dominance of liquidity constraint relief versus production enhancement incentives. Utilizing data from the China National Fixed-Point Survey (2004–2014), our empirical analysis using fixed-effect models corroborates the theoretical predictions. Specifically, we find that agricultural production loans negatively affect wheat storage and the storage-to-output ratio for wheat. Conversely, these loans positively correlate with storage levels and storage-to-output ratios for maize and soybeans. Additionally, our results indicate a negative impact on rice storage but no significant effect on the rice storage-to-output ratio. Further analysis reveals that, compared with wheat and rice, maize and soybeans have a higher output return of capital input. Furthermore, we find agricultural production loans raise household income and consumption.","PeriodicalId":46664,"journal":{"name":"International Review of Finance","volume":"25 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2025-05-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143908867","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}

We use changes in import tariffs as exogenous shocks to product market competition to examine how the effect of these shocks on performance varies with corporate governance. We find that elevated product market competition due to import tariff cuts results in significant performance deterioration for firms with strong corporate governance, but little effect or even a significant positive effect on performance for firms with poor governance. We further find that these effects are much stronger for nonexporting firms and small firms because they do not have the opportunity/resources to soften the impact of increased competitive pressure. Our findings suggest that elevated market competition helps to reduce managerial entrenchment/slack, which can offset the adverse effects of increased competitive pressure, especially for nonexporting firms and small firms. The findings lend support to the hypothesis that managerial slack is inversely related to industry competitive pressure and, hence, that product market competition and internal corporate governance are substitutes for each other.","PeriodicalId":46664,"journal":{"name":"International Review of Finance","volume":"25 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2025-05-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/irfi.70018","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143900917","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

By analyzing cross-sectional ESG data from various sources related to 56 countries, we find that ESG information plays a crucial role in shaping analyst forecasts. More importantly, we examine the interaction between internally and externally sourced information on affecting analysts. Our results suggest that while ESG information from the media attenuates the impact of firms' ESG disclosures on reducing analysts' forecast errors and dispersion, information from ESG rating agencies increases this impact. We also find that globally implemented mandatory ESG disclosure regulations significantly increase the effect of ESG information from all three sources on analysts. In countries with a stronger stakeholder orientation, financial analysts tend to derive greater relative benefits from ESG information obtained from various sources. Overall, the findings of this study support the conclusion that both externally and internally sourced ESG information is of significant value for financial analysts, and the implementation of mandatory ESG disclosure requirements in a country increases this significance.","PeriodicalId":46664,"journal":{"name":"International Review of Finance","volume":"25 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2025-04-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143857122","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}
