The approximation formula we derived involves some one-dimensional integrations. We calculate these integrals using the generalized Gauss–Laguerre quadrature rule and Taylor expansion methods. In particular, we derive an analytical approximation formula under the Variance Gamma model for some exchange options. Moreover, we extend the approximation formulas proposed by Kirk (1995) and Carmona and Durrleman (2003b) to the Normal Tempered Stable Lévy model. Numerical tests show that our approximation formulas are highly accurate. Furthermore, we show that our approximation formulas outperform the Fourier inversion method introduced by Caldana et al.

Utilizing a unique dataset comprising Vietnamese listed firms from 2007 to 2022, we suggest that heightened bank competition, as reflected by lower values of concentration ratios, the Lerner index, and the Boone indicator, raises firms’ investment efficiency. Further analysis reveals that bank competition increases investment efficiency specifically in the form of mitigating the underinvestment issue. The validity of the result holds through numerous robustness tests, especially with careful consideration of endogeneity concerns. Through mechanism tests, our study reveals that increased bank competition elevates corporate investment efficiency by mitigating firms’ financing constraints, offering more bank credit, and reducing financing costs. In cross-sectional analysis, we document that the relationship between bank competition and capital investment efficiency is stronger for firms with closer bank-firm ties, greater investment opportunities, and weaker financial positions (captured by firm size, state ownership, and listing location).
