Notations et écarts de rentabilité : le marché français avant l'euro
2003
The main task of this paper is to confront two classical measures of default risk of the issuer, the rating and the spread. The first is attributed by agencies specialized in this activity (Standard and Poor's or Moody's) while the second results directly from the market price of the bond. This article studies this link over a period of two years for about forty French denominated bonds. Two measures of the spread are used and the results obtained show the very partial consideration of this information by the investors on the French bond market.

Factors influencing mobile banking continuous use in Sub-Sahara Africa : A study of mobile banking users in Nigeria
2019
The ubiquitous diffusion of information and communications technology is fundamentally impacting several sectors. In the financial services sub-sector, the convenience and speed that mobile banking (m-banking) applications offer users have made it one of the most popular applications in use. However, the growth trajectory of the application is questionably different as it has continually seen a decline in the Nigerian market. The aim of this study is therefore to examine the factors influencing m-banking continuous use in an emerging market context by using a hybrid of unified theory of acceptance and use of technology (UTAUT2), uses and gratification, and privacy theories. Survey data were…

Production network and financing
1993
L'un des grands apports de Keynes à la science économique est d'avoir découvert que le financement courant de l'économie se fait à partir de la production courante. La théorie moderne des émissions, développée par B. Schmitt, nous permet de saisir maintenant que la rémunération des travailleurs n'est pas issue de fonds préalablement accumulés, et que l'émission des salaires est la source unique du financement de la production. Pourtant on considère souvent que la "finance" est un moyen complémentaire de financement que les banques mettent à la disposition des entreprises. Or, il apparaît que la logique même de l'émission de la monnaie interdit de retenir une telle hypothèse. La "finance" ne…
Financing of development and the international monetary system
1994
Three categories of developing countries must be distinguished. Of these, one cannot constitute either sufficient domestic savings, or a balance of trade surplus, which would allow it to finance its development. This same category which has no possibility^ to pay back its debts doesn't have a good standing among the borrowing countries, on the international financial market. International organizations don't have sufficient funds to face up tothe needs of these countries. Therefore, the current international monetary system is not favorable to these countries. Consequently, a reform of the international monetary system is necessary. This reform should make the study of international liquidi…

"LA FINANZA PER L'ESTERO:IL PUNTO DI VISTA DELLE BANCHE LOCALI E DELLE PMI MARCHIGIANE"
2009
Questo studio descrive la relazione tra funzione finanziaria e strategie di internazionalizzazione delle PMI, visto che non risulta possibile tracciare una netta linea di demarcazione tra aspetti finanziari e di economia reale, soprattutto a seguito delle sfide competitive lanciate dalla globalizzazione e dalla diffusione di un nuovo modo di concepire il rapporto banca-impresa secondo le regole di Basilea 2. Un’attenta analisi degli aspetti attinenti sia all’offerta da parte delle banche locali della Regione Marche di prodotti/servizi finanziari volti a favorire l’ingresso delle PMI nei mercati esteri, in modo da poter valutare quanto tali prodotti/servizi siano conosciuti dalle banche loca…
Ursula Hicks and Vera Lutz’s Contributions to Development Finance
2018
International audience; This paper analyses the different approaches of two pioneering economists in the field of development finance, Ursula Kathleen Hicks (1896-1985) and Vera Constance Lutz (1912-1976). While research in economics in the 1950s focuses predominantly on finance in already developed countries (Goldsmith, 1969 and Gurley and Shaw, 1955), Hicks and Lutz extended the analysis to developing countries and/or regions – an original initiative for this period of time. Interested in the study of money and banking, Hicks and Lutz nevertheless had different beliefs on the way to promote economic development. This difference of thought comes from differing philosophical backgrounds.
Amministrazione di sostegno e home banking dispositivo
2021
Il commento affronta il tema della legittimità del diniego da parte della banca della possibilità per l’amministratore di sostegno di operare mediante home banking dispositivo sul conto corrente intestato alla beneficiaria, in presenza di un decreto di nomina che lo autorizza alla movimentazione del suddetto conto. L’Autrice si sofferma sia sulle caratteristiche e il ruolo dell’Arbitro Bancario Finanziario, sia sulla c.d. teoria della dinamicità dei poteri affermata in sede applicativa in ambito di misure di protezione delle persone incapaci, per poi concentrare l’attenzione sulla qualificazione operata dall’Arbitro in termini di vessatorietà della clausola invocata dalla banca per escluder…
