Innovativeness in London does not arise primarily from technological initiatives, but from the labour intensive, knowledge-based processes characteristic of the city's internationally networked service functions. The financial services are often portrayed as leading these processes, with other professional and business services acting largely in their support. Yet the latter employ more people in central London, and serve a wider array of markets than suggested by this characterisation. This chapter compares the recent innovation experience of the financial services with other forms of KIBS innovation. Major similarities are noted in the need for market responsiveness, high quality labour, and flexible institutional arrangements, but important differences also emerge. These relate especially the influence of information and communications technology, the different forms taken by regulation, and the autonomy allowed KIBS firms by clients. The distinctive national and regional importance of non-financial KIBS innovation require greater attention, even though this poses some daunting methodological challenges.","PeriodicalId":47599,"journal":{"name":"European Journal of Finance","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2009-08-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84514542","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The crisis was initiated by a large number of doubtful loans requested by clients, mostly by physical persons who were not able to pay them off. The market with securities (mortgage bonds) being covered by insolvent mortgages collapsed. This collapse led to an export of the American mortgage crisis to the global financial world because the mortgage bonds had been purchased by huge bank houses and institutional investors in all continents of the financial world. It is paradoxical that these bonds were given the favourable rating evaluations by renowned worldwide rating agencies. The mortgage crisis in the U.S.A. was gradually growing into the global financial crisis, at first in the U.S.A. and then throughout the world. As a consequence of the globalization and worldwide financial internationalization of the financial world the crisis spread to all spheres of the world economy and gave rise to the global economic crisis.","PeriodicalId":47599,"journal":{"name":"European Journal of Finance","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2009-08-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88265697","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this Research Bulletin we look at the risk and return to the EUE3 Liquidity factor in different market environments, the link between stock liquidity and stock size and sector, and the relationship between the significance of the Liquidity factor and market performance. This factor’s return varied with the market cycle during the rally of 1995-2000 and the correction of 2000-2003. In the more recent cycle, there was less dispersion between the rally and the correction. We also find that there are some systematic relationships between a company’s liquidity and its size and sector. Finally, we find that the EUE3 Liquidity factor return tends to be statistically significant when the market moves up or down in a meaningful way, which is consistent with our analysis of the Liquidity factor in GEM2.","PeriodicalId":47599,"journal":{"name":"European Journal of Finance","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2009-07-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74269099","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Our empirical findings, using a large European stock database, mainly rediscover the earlier works by Jean (1973) and Ingersoll (1975), regarding the shape of the extended higher-order moment efficient frontier, and confirm the seminal prediction by Levy and Markowitz (1979) about the accuracy of the mean-variance criterion.","PeriodicalId":47599,"journal":{"name":"European Journal of Finance","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2009-07-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"89158474","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In search of answers and solutions many scholars and practitioners recommend improved output control, i.e. better external incentives or even stricter regulations. Monasteries demonstrate that alternative models may be more suitable to enhance sustainable governance quality and to reduce agency problems. In the long history of monasteries, some abbots and monks were known to line their own pockets and some monasteries were undisciplined. Monasteries developed special systems to combat these excesses thus ensuring their survival over centuries. We study these features from an economic perspective. Derived from an analysis of the Benedictine monastery of Engelberg we offer three improvements of applied governance designed to reduce agency problems. First, monastic governance emphasizes clan control rather than output control. Monasteries demonstrate that organizations can prevent agency problems by complementing external discipline with internal behavioral incentives, such as value systems and voice. Second, organization members making firm-specific investments are motivated by broad participation rights and co-determination. Third, the Benedictines are able to apply supportive external control mechanisms, which are not perceived as controlling.","PeriodicalId":47599,"journal":{"name":"European Journal of Finance","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2009-07-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88502183","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Following the Bover and Arellano (1997) approach, we carry out a dynamic binary choice model where the decision to replace a CEO includes lags of the dependent variable, previous performance, and previous changes in the chairman position as endogenous determinants of this governance intervention. We find that for both listed and unlisted firms, previous performance changes are negatively correlated with CEO turnover. Furthermore, listed and unlisted firms follow different paths when taking decisions linked to CEO replacements: whereas unlisted firms are less likely to replace a recently hired CEO, listed companies appear more impatient. Finally, ownership concentration and the presence of banks are also important determinants of CEO turnover decisions, but only for listed firms. Our results give support to the growing call by academics who highlight the importance of controlling endogeneity to correctly examine the determinants of governance interventions.","PeriodicalId":47599,"journal":{"name":"European Journal of Finance","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2009-06-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"73173553","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
