High Frequency Data Analysis in an Emerging and a Developed Market
2002
We compare distributional properties of high frequency (tick by tick) returns of stocks traded at the NASDAQ, NYSE, and BSE (Budapest Stock Exchange). In particular, we model returns with a mixture of a degenerate (zero) and a symmetric stable distribution. We measure time with the number of successive price changes on the market and study the convergence of the index of stability on increasing time horizons. We apply results to calculate expected waiting times to reach given levels of value at risk.

Risk management in the banking industry
2016
El negocio bancario está altamente regulado porque las instituciones financieras captan ahorro público y tienen riesgos específicos y complejidades que hacen que sus estados financieros sean opacos y difíciles de analizar por el público en general (Petrella y Resti, 2013; Morgan, 2001). Para entender y monitorear los riesgos específicos en las empresas del sector financiero, el regulador estadounidense diseñó el sistema de evaluación CAMELS, que es comúnmente utilizado por los reguladores de todo el mundo para evaluar la solidez de las instituciones financieras y para evaluar el nivel de riesgo de los bancos (Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, 2013). Los riesgos que este enfoque eva…
“Managing the Impossible?” Comparing How Countries Address the Dahrendorf Quandary
2021
This paper examines the policy approaches and measures that developed market economies countries have adopted to “manage” what has become known as the Dahrendorf Quandary, a profound challenge facing globalizing economies: over time, staying economically competitive requires either adopting measures detrimental to the cohesion of society or restricting civil liberties and political participation. Examining a range of countries over time, it is found that their policy choices and subsequent performance are too varied to support the inevitable, almost mechanical, incompatibility the Quandary implies. While balancing the relationship between economic globalization, social cohesion, and democra…
