Accessing accurate data and its meaningful analysis is becoming vital. The rise of digital technologies driven by the fourth industrial revolution (Industry 4.0) enables this but also poses new risks to insurers. The literature is evolving, and most reviews have focused on technologies or insurance value chain aspects. This systematic review of research on digital technologies in insurance discusses their benefits, enablers and inhibitors with specific reference to Industry 4.0–driven changes and identifies opportunities and imminent changes in the industry. This article discusses directions for future research.

Using fractions of young members, middle-aged members, and government co-contributions for low-income earners as instrumental variables, we find an insignificant effect of expected fund outflows on performance. A potential explanation is that Australian superannuation funds preemptively engage in liquidity management in response to changes in expectations of future fund flows and this helps to limit direct and indirect costs in the rebalancing process.

We construct a novel measure of investment transparency based upon the extensiveness of profitability forecasts and cost disclosures in new project-level capital investment announcements. Using cross-sectional regression, we find that prior to announcement greater investment transparency is associated with lower information asymmetry. We further show that rather than reporting information strategically on a project-by-project basis, managers commit ex-ante to a disclosure policy that influences the disclosure level of new project announcements, and that a firm-level commitment to fuller disclosure reduces information asymmetry in the days surrounding the announcement. Using event study methodology, we also find that investors react more positively to announcements displaying greater investment transparency.

Using descriptive analyses, we explore audit market competition, the provision of non-audit services (NAS), and audit firm tenure. We find that the Australian audit market is highly segmented. Big 4 firms increasingly dominate the larger client segment, while Non-Big 4 firms focus on medium and smaller clients. Auditor-provided NAS fees represent a relatively small fraction of audit fees for smaller clients, but a relatively high fraction for larger clients. We further observe that the share of total revenue from NAS of Big 4 firms increases over time. Finally, a relatively small percentage of clients has long audit firm tenure, and that long tenure is more common in the larger client segments. We discuss the implications of these findings and research opportunities that emerge.

Although we view these findings as somewhat inevitable given institutional and isomorphic pressures, they are of concern if ANZ business schools are to produce research that is both rigorous and relevant beyond the academy.

We find that the reduction in policy changes is more prominent when social ties are stronger due to greater association between the individuals.

The mathematical theory of betting, often known as ‘Kelly betting’, has implications for all financial decision-making under uncertainty. There have been attempts to exploit Kelly betting methods in financial portfolio optimization, but there has been little analysis of conventional capital budgeting methods against a Kelly framework. A simple comparison between methods reveals that capital budgeting decisions made using conventional finance methods can embed the error that Kelly theorists call ‘overbetting’. The outcome of overbetting is that the firm reduces its expected compound capital growth rate while simultaneously adding to the volatility of its anticipated growth path. That unfortunate pairing is mathematically precluded under Kelly betting rules but is implicitly, albeit unknowingly, sanctioned by accepted capital budgeting practices in finance.

The Australian government's Home Equity Access Scheme allows elderly Australians to access the equity in their home and utilise this illiquid wealth. Through stochastic modelling of the scheme, this paper compares two strategies of drawing down housing wealth and provides a framework for comparing strategies that balances income, flexibility and longevity protection. The first strategy supplements other sources of retirement income, whereas the second strategy is similar to a contingent deferred annuity, with non-housing assets drawn down first. Although results vary by cohort and objective, the role of the scheme as a vehicle to protect against poverty in old age is emphasised. This reinforces the potential of home ownership as a financial asset in retirement, in addition to benefits conferred through housing ownership over the entire life cycle.

Moreover, SOEs with more SSCM practices, including supplier management and customer cooperation, could harvest more performance improvement after the trade conflict, while non-SOEs receive performance reduction by doing so.
