Analysis of the Legal and Regulatory Situation of Uncovered Corporate Bond Issuance in the Baltic States: is there a Common Framework Possible?

2021

While the development of the Baltic corporate bond market is based on the uncovered bond segment, the elaboration of the legislative base has a devoted emphasis on the covered bonds. The shift from a country-focused to the pan-Baltic-focused capital market has been publicly acknowledged by the governments (Ministry of Finance of the Republic of Latvia, 2018) and is in line with the ongoing Capital Markets Union initiative of the European Commission (The High Level Forum on the Capital Markets, 2020). Moreover, a pan-Baltic covered bond legal and regulatory framework has been initiated (Ministry of Finance of the Republic of Lithuania, 2019). The strong demand for the corporate bond segment …

Executive remuneration determinants: New evidence from meta-analysis

2019

This meta-analysis takes stock of 121 C.E.O. pay studies published between 1998 and 2018 with the objective of identifying the main drivers of C.E.O. pay from a global perspective and contributing to the agency vs managerial debate on this ground. The meta-results disclose a positive C.E.O. pay–performance correlation (the highest correlation coefficient corresponds to Earnings per share with a 34%) as the agency theory prescribes and the governance policies promote. However, firm size still predominates as the main driver of C.E.O. pay (correlation coefficient is around 44%) according to managerial premises. Moreover, our results reconcile both approaches because results of the meta-regres…

2010

Ci sono due direzioni principali che consentono di leggere correttamente il patrimonio custodito nel Carré Plantagenêt – Musée d'Archéologie du Mans, e sono disposte secondo una linea orizzontale e una verticale. La prima mette in relazione la storia della città, letta attraverso i suoi reperti archeologici custoditi negli spazi del museo, e il tessuto urbano attuale, attraverso il collegamento visivo che si instaura tra il museo, inteso come grande contenitore di storia, e la città che si intravede dai tagli delle strette fessure nei muri, si vede dalle tante finestre che ritmano le superfici e si contempla dalle grandi vetrate aperte generosamente sul paesaggio. There are two main ways to…
