Pricing of electricity futures based on locational price differences : empirical evidence from Finland

2016

Tietyn maantieteellisen alueen kilpailullisilla sähkömarkkinoilla on yleensä viitespot-hinta, joka kuvastaa yleistä hintatasoa tukkumarkkinalla, ja jota käytetään johdannaisten viitehintana. Paikallisten markkinoiden hinnat saattavat kuitenkin poiketa tästä viitehinnasta siirtoyhteyksien rajallisuuden takia. Pohjoismaisilla sähkömarkkinoilla ns. systeemi- ja tarjousalueen aluehinnan väliseltä basis-riskiltä suojaudutaan ns. aluehintaero-johdannaisilla (eng. Electricity Price Area Differential, EPAD). Tutkin tässä pro gradu- työssä Suomen tarjousalueen EPAD-tuotteiden ja vastaavan aluehintaeron yhteyttä. Koska sähkö ei ole varastoitavissa, yleisen näkemyksen mukaan sopiva sähköfutuurien hinn…

Yrittäjän vapaus hoivapalveluissa : tutkimus hoivayrittäjien praktisesta vapaudesta

2018

Tutkimuksen tavoitteena oli analysoida yrittäjän vapautta hoivan tuottamisessa yhteiskuntafilosofisesta näkökulmasta. Tutkimuksen käsitteellinen konteksti rakentui hoivasta yrittäjyyden toimialana, jossa hoivaa jäsennettiin palveluna ja markkinaistuneena tuotteena. Tutkimuksen teoreettiset käsitteet muodostuivat Hegelin oikeusfilosofiaan perustuvista praktisen vapauden ulottuvuuksista, joita täydennettiin Berlinin negatiivisen ja positiivisen vapauden käsitteillä. Tutkimusaineisto muodostui viidentoista yrittäjän haastatteluista (N=15). Kahdeksan (8) yrittäjää toimi itsenäisinä yrittäjinä ja seitsemän (7) ketjuyrittäjinä kolmessa suomalaisessa franchisingketjussa. Tutkimuksen kohteena oleva…

2013

Charity gardens are a proposal for social intervention, which may form part of social and labour active inclusion policies, within the structure of the territory, generating a social and economic system. This study examines the model of French garden created in Réseau Cocagne and compares this with the analysis of similar business cases found in Spain. The paper focuses on the importance of using traditional agricultural spaces in peri-urban areas, through being areas where several factors and functions converge, capable of generating social, economic and environmental wealth helping to promote social inclusion.

Booms and busts in housing markets: determinants and implications

2009

This study looks at real estate price booms and busts in industrialised countries. It identifies major and persistent deviations from long term trends for 18 countries and estimates the probabilities of their occurrence using a Random Effects Panel Probit model over the period 1980-2007. It finds that 1) most recent housing booms have been very persistent and of a significant magnitude; 2) there appears to be a strong correlation between the persistence and magnitude of booms and subsequent busts; 3) economic costs (in terms of GDP losses during the post-boom phase) depend significantly on the magnitude and duration of the boom and money and credit developments during that period; 4) a numb…

How the unbanked cope with financial exclusion: Evidence from Pakistan

2016

This article investigates both the coping strategies employed by low-income unbanked consumers in Pakistan and the consequences of those strategies. Qualitative data were gathered from low-income unbanked consumers through in-depth interviews. The findings suggest that unbanked consumers utilize their respective social networks and various market and personal resources to cope with financial exclusion. The utilization of social network resources to cope with financial exclusion typically enabled participants to fulfill their obligations in a positive manner and enhanced solidarity and trust among group members, whereas the use of market and personal resources tended to produce more negative…
