A bibliometric review of sukuk literature

2023

Abstract Sukuk (Islamic bonds) are one of the Islamic finance sectors that have experienced the fastest growth during the last decade. Using a quali-quantitative approach known as meta-literature review, the aim of this paper is to survey the sukuk literature over the period 1950–2018. In total we review and analyze 80 papers through bibliometric citation analysis (using HistCite and VOSviewer software) coupled with content analysis. We show the influential aspects of the literature, such as countries, institutions, journals, authors, articles and topics. We also present the co-authorship network and identify three research streams: (1) sukuk overview and growth, (2) sukuk and finance theor…

Do we really know the predictors of competence-creating R&D subsidiaries? Uncovering the mediation of dual network embeddedness

2017

Abstract Many changes have been recorded in the R&D role played by the foreign subsidiaries of multinational corporations (MNCs), to the extent that today many are recognised as key players in the development of firm innovation-related competences. Given this trend, we examine the predictors of a subsidiary's R&D role as a competence-creating contributor to the MNC's long-term success. Traditionally, the predictors of subsidiaries' R&D roles have been sought in the specific features of the internal corporate and external host-country environments. However, we find that favourable corporate- and country-level conditions may not necessarily lead to the enhancement of a subsidiary's R&D role u…

Nuevo régimen de responsabilidad de los servicios digitales que actúan como intermediarios a la luz de la propuesta de Reglamento relativo a un merca…

2021

El pasado 15 de diciembre de 2020, la Comisión Europea presentó las Propuestas de Reglamento relativo a un mercado único de servicios digitales (Ley de Servicios Digitales) y sobre mercados competitivos y justos en el sector digital (Ley de Mercados Digitales) , que modernizan el régimen aplicable a los prestadores de servicios de intermediación . Esenciales en el entramado de internet, los intermediarios son agentes fundamentales de la transformación digital de estas últimas décadas. Aunque constantemente cuestionados por el poder e influencia que algunas compañías (como Google, Apple, Amazon o Facebook, por citar algún ejemplo de las big tech) ostentan en el entorno digital, lo cierto es …

Interest Rate Risk in Banking: a Theoretical and Empirical Investigation through a Systemic Approach (Asset & Liability Management).

2013

The paper provides a theoretical analysis of the interest rate risk in banking through a systemic approach that is known in literature as “asset & liability management” approach. The paper provides also an empirical investigation on the exposure of banks to interest rate risk, using three different scenarios: parallel shift, slope shift, and bump shift of interest rate curves.

Le scelte strategiche e operative delle banche locali nelle regioni dei distretti tecnologici italiani

2011

Con questo lavoro si intende verificare se si sono manifestati dei cambiamenti associati alla crisi finanziaria globale nelle scelte operative, strategiche e attinenti la natura dell’offerta della particolare categoria di intermediario finanziario rappresentata dalle banche locali. Si cercherà di verificare se quest’ultima tipologia di intermediario, sfruttando i propri punti di forza connessi alla vocazione territoriale delle scelte strategiche incentrate sulla filosofia del relationship lending che pone come valore di riferimento il cliente e di conseguenza alla disponibilità di un portafoglio informativo sulle esigenze del cliente molto più ampio sia stata grado di offrire alla clientela…

Catastrophic risks and the pricing of catastrophe equity put options

2021

In this paper, after a review of the most common financial strategies and products that insurance companies use to hedge catastrophic risks, we study an option pricing model based on processes with jumps where the catastrophic event is captured by a compound Poisson process with negative jumps. Given the importance that catastrophe equity put options (CatEPuts) have in this context, we introduce a pricing approach that provides not only a theoretical contribution whose applicability remains confined to purely numerical examples and experiments, but which can be implemented starting from real data and applied to the evaluation of real CatEPuts. We propose a calibration framework based on his…

An empirical investigation into market risk disclosure: is there room to improve for Italian banks?

2020

PurposeThis paper aims to examine the market risk disclosure practices of large Italian banks. The contribution provides insights on the way banks should provide information about market risk. The problem related to the asymmetric information between banks from one side, and investors and stakeholders on the other, represents a crucial issue that requires further considerations by scholars and regulators.Design/methodology/approachThis contribution adopts a mixed methodological approach to analyse both qualitative and quantitative profiles of market risk disclosure in banking. This paper analyses the most important documents Italian banks are required to prepare for risk disclosure purposes…

Market risk reporting in banking overcoming the limits of IAS/IFRS and Basel regulation

2017

Market risk in banking activity is becoming a more severe issue day by day for several reasons. Analysing it from a regulatory point of view is fundamental for assessing whether or not banks are in the conditions of disclosing a satisfactory degree of information about their market risk exposure. The two regulatory constraints to consider are International Accounting Standards (IAS/IFRS) and the Basel regulation. Both of them seem to put too many constraints on banks. They turn out to be over-over-regulated. Even if regulators put many efforts in trying to provide a useful regulation for banks' risk reporting and capital adequacy, we are still far from a good regulation. The regulatory proc…

Knowledge sharing and subsidiary R&D mandate development: A matter of dual embeddedness

2014

Sharing knowledge across borders has proven to be especially relevant to multinational corporations (MNCs). Foreign subsidiaries have become active players in these knowledge flows. However, the network effects of interacting with multiple agents on the evolution of the R&D role played by subsidiaries are still undeveloped. The present study focuses on changes in subsidiary capabilities and on the dynamic mechanisms by which their R&D role might evolve, especially, as a consequence of their interaction with a variety of knowledge networks. We examine this issue by conducting four longitudinal case studies of subsidiaries operating in Spain. Using an inductive approach to theory building, we…
