The forecast precision of the GARCH-MIDAS model is improved by incorporating global EUIs relatively more than country-specific EUIs.

Applying a short-term event study analysis, we test the stock and Credit Default Swap (CDS) market´s on the mining sector. Moreover, a cross-sectional analysis is performed testing the effect of ESG disclosures on the market reaction –in terms of Cumulative Abnormal Returns, CAR– on the competitors of Vale S.A., the company involved in such ecological catastrophes. Our findings show a statistically significant reaction in both events. Investors´ react negatively and immediately in the case of Vale for both events; CARs are statistically significant for the shorter windows. However, investors react differently in the mining sector sample –excluding Vale–. While CARs are negative in Samarco, investors do so positively in the case of Brumadinho. In that sense, investors seemed as if they switch their perceptions from this first event –Samarco–in comparison to the most recent one –Brumadinho– rewarding the increase of ESG disclosures in the meantime and mitigating a negative contagion effect in the mining sector. The impact on the CDS market is also found positive in mining sector.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":47962,"journal":{"name":"Quarterly Review of Economics and Finance","volume":"95 ","pages":"Pages 256-267"},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2024-04-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1062976924000565/pdfft?md5=6897ed0518caf14706a453ff0ebd438e&pid=1-s2.0-S1062976924000565-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140639040","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Our results demonstrate that more takeover exposure raises customer concentration considerably. Specifically, a rise in takeover susceptibility by one standard deviation increases customer concentration by 8.10%− 9.16%. When insulated from the discipline of the takeover market, risk-averse managers prefer to live a quiet life, trying to reduce firm risk. Consequently, they seek to lower customer concentration as a high level of customer concentration is risky. Therefore, firms more exposed to hostile takeovers exhibit higher customer concentration. Further analysis including entropy balancing, propensity score matching, and instrumental-variable analysis validates the results. Our study is the first to link customer concentration to the market for corporate control.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":47962,"journal":{"name":"Quarterly Review of Economics and Finance","volume":"95 ","pages":"Pages 268-279"},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2024-04-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140650059","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}

This positive effect is more pronounced for households with a higher level of risk preference. At the same time, there is no significant difference in the probability or proportion of risky assets allocation between insured and uninsured households in rural areas.

Our results expand the knowledge about renegotiation to a context that has been scarcely addressed in previous studies: emerging markets.
