Recently, China’s fiscal reform to improve government fiscal efficiency has taken center stage. Improved fiscal efficiency allows for the development of a virtuous cycle of transparency, public engagement and budget supervision. The budget waste reporting system implemented in South Korea can be used as a case study example for building such a virtuous cycle. In fact, such a system does indeed help Korea achieve budget reductions. Academic studies in China on how to improve fiscal efficiency have so far centered on areas of transparency, public engagement and supervision. The budget waste reporting system implemented by Korea has demonstrated a virtuous cycle relationship among these systems and is thus of great significance. For the Chinese government, first priority to implementing such a system should be given to improving the system of information disclosure. This means that rather than simply disclosing the budget information, the public should be engaged in how to comprehend such disclosures. Not only can the implementation of such a system in China directly achieve budget cuts, it can also play an important role in improving fiscal transparency and household welfare.

We develop a New Keynesian model with government bonds of mixed matu- rity and solve for optimal time-consistent policy using global solution techniques. This reveals several non-linearities absent from LQ analyses with one-period debt. Firstly, the steady-state balances an inflation and debt stabilization bias to gener- ate a small negative debt value with a slight undershooting of the inflation target. This falls far short of first-best (`war chest') asset levels. Secondly, starting from debt levels consistent with currently observed debt to GDP ratios the optimal pol- icy will gradually reduce that debt, but the policy mix changes radically along the transition path. At high debt levels there is a reliance on a relaxation of monetary policy to reduce debt through an expanded tax base and reduced debt service costs, while tax rates are used to moderate the increases in inflation. However, as debt levels fall, the use of monetary policy in this way diminishes and the authority turns to fiscal policy to continue debt reduction. This endogenous switch in the policy mix occurs at higher debt levels, the longer the average debt maturity. Allowing the policymaker to optimally vary debt maturity in response to shocks and across varying levels of debt, we find that variations in maturity are largely used to sup- port changes in the underlying time-consistent policy mix rather than the speed of fiscal correction. Finally, introducing a mild degree of policy maker myopia can re- produce steady-state debt to GDP ratios and inflation rates not dissimilar to those observed empirically, without changing any of the qualitative results presented in the paper.

We analyse German citizens’ knowledge about monetary policy and the European Central Bank (ECB), as well as the public’s use of mass communication media to obtain information about the ECB. We employ a unique representative public opinion survey of German households conducted in 2011. We find that a person’s desire to be informed about the ECB, together with the use of various media channels to keep informed, are decisive for both (i) the person’s perception of how much he or she knows about the ECB and (ii) the person’s actual knowledge. The media-related influence varies by level of education and is stronger for subjective knowledge. Women are significantly less interested in and knowledgeable about the ECB. We conclude that the ECB is not only well advised to continue with education programmes designed to convince the public of the importance of knowing about monetary policy, but to take the gender-specific differences into account in doing so.

I develop a model of real exchange rate determination that attributes a central role to the intertemporal government budget condition, which equates the market value of government debt to the present value of government surpluses. To enforce this equilibrium condition in the presence of nominal rigidities, the real exchange rate has to adjust in response to shocks to government surpluses. The model predicts that fiscal shocks account for real exchange rate movements, and the factor structure in fiscal shocks aligns with the factor structure in currency returns. Both predictions are confirmed in the sample of developed countries.

With increasing activities of separatists and agitators for self independence taking a heavy toll on the sovereignty of Nigeria, more curiosity has once again been drawn to the accountability strength, transparency quality and the performance trend of the national economy under the post-1999 democratic dispensations in Nigeria. Given the country’s recent exit from economic recession, the scandalous strides of N9 trillion NNPC contracts still awaiting clarifications and the incumbent administration’s recent claim of N1.3 trillion worth of Capital projects execution in 2016, the study intends to substantiate graphically the complementary impact nature of Nigeria’s budget expenditures and her economic performances in the post 1999 democratic dispensations towards appreciating judgmentally, the quality of accountability possibly upheld during this period in the light of exceptional incidences of questionable transparency in public service. This approach will help shed more light into possible implications obtainable given the trend of the nation’s economic growth as witnessed during the years covered. The annual GDP growth rate statistics, annual GDP achieved (in US$), the US to Naira exchange rates, and the annual national Budget of Nigeria (emphasis on Recurrent and Capital Expenditures) as published by the World Bank Group for the years 1999 – 2016 were all adopted and holistically subjected to professional evaluation and assessment using graphics/charts so as to boost readers’ understandability. Evidence from the statistics shows that Nigeria is yet to appreciate the place of accountability, transparency, and absolute compliance to due process in the achievement and sustenance of upward geared economic growth. Further graphical evaluations carried out reveals that while the country’s annual budget figures continued to rise in trillions of Naira especially in the recurrent expenditures, little of this acclaimed effort is felt by the economy and Nigerians, thus depicting possible tendencies of mismanagement of public funds, intransparenvy and poor accountability approach to the same. The study has as a result proffered several antigens to these visible lapses that has since 1999 left Nigeria struggling atop corruption perception index table of Transparency International (TI).

Objective: Bonds experience high trading volume right after their issuance. Outstanding amount of a bond is built by multiple follow on reissuances. Trading volume also picks up when bond is reissued. This paper investigates impact of bond’s age since issuance on its weekly trading volume. In addition it also investigates impact of trade size, outstanding amount, Foreign Institutional Investor (FII) trading, Repo rate volatility, Yield to Maturity volatility and Mumbai Interbank Offer Rate (MIBOR) volatility in the Indian context. Design, Methodology & Approach: This paper builds on Hong and Warga (2000), Kalimipalli and Warga (2002), and Diaz et. al. (2006). Non-linear regression is used to investigate exponential decay of weekly trading market share of 5, 10 and 30 Year bonds with respect to age. The model also explores linear relationship of other factors on the weekly trading volume. Findings: (This) Our research finds evidence of decay in trading with respect to bond age, reissuance and trade size. The model suggests two issuances of 5 year, three issuances of 10 Year and one issuance of 30 year bond per year for optimum trading volume in the Government of India (GoI) bond market. Implications: GoI publishes a tentative schedule with no indication of which tenure will be auctioned. This uncertainty impacts the trading as market lacks anticipation of maturity segments in the yield curve. A regular schedule of 5, 10 and 30 year bonds provides for better public debt management with enhanced trading liquidity and lower cost of public debt. Originality & Value: Literature review provides no evidence of similar study in Indian context. Hence it is the first study of this kind. This study provides a bond issuance approach for enhanced public debt management, market trading and lower cost of public debt. Research Limitations: Due to lack of data, over the counter (OTC) trades are not incorporated in the analysis. Inclusion of treasury bills trades in the model may provide better understanding of trading risk.
目的:债券发行后交易量大。债券的未偿金额是通过多次后续再发行来建立的。当债券重新发行时，交易量也会增加。本文研究了债券发行年限对周交易量的影响。此外，它还调查了交易规模、未偿金额、外国机构投资者(FII)交易、回购利率波动、到期收益率波动和孟买银行间同业拆借利率(MIBOR)波动在印度背景下的影响。设计、方法论和方法:本文以Hong and Warga(2000)、Kalimipalli and Warga(2002)以及Diaz et al.(2006)为基础。采用非线性回归研究了5年期、10年期和30年期债券周交易市场份额随年龄的指数衰减。该模型还探讨了其他因素对周交易量的线性关系。研究发现:(1)我们的研究发现了债券年龄、再发行和交易规模相关的交易衰减的证据。该模型建议印度政府债券市场每年发行两次5年期债券，发行三次10年期债券和发行一次30年期债券，以达到最佳交易量。含义:印度政府公布了一份暂定时间表，没有表明将拍卖哪些土地使用权。由于市场缺乏对收益率曲线上到期部分的预期，这种不确定性影响了交易。定期发行5年期、10年期和30年期债券有助于改善公共债务管理，提高交易流动性，降低公共债务成本。原创性和价值:文献综述没有提供印度背景下类似研究的证据。因此，这是第一次这样的研究。本研究为加强公共债务管理、市场交易和降低公共债务成本提供了一种债券发行途径。研究局限:由于缺乏数据，场外交易没有纳入分析。在模型中纳入国库券交易可以更好地理解交易风险。

We study the employment growth for entrepreneurial ventures that received a government-sponsored participative loan (PL), a hybrid form of financing between debt and equity. We use propensity-score matching (PSM) and instrumental variable analysis (2SLS) to study a sample of 512 entrepreneurial ventures that received a PL from a Spanish government agency between 2005 and 2011. We find evidence that PLs significantly boosted their beneficiaries’ employment. In the two years following loan issuance, a 1-million-Euro PL generated an increase in average employment by between 12.1 (PSM) and 14.7 (2SLS) units relative to the average for the two years prior to loan issuance. The effect on growth is significant and stable, and PLs increase their beneficiaries’ annual employment growth by 10.6%.

This articles analyses the financial industry landscape following the recent financial crisis and new players and channels of obtaining external financing for start‐ups and SMEs. We show that the government intervention to overcome the credit crunch problems was of limited effect, be it national funds of loan guarantees or regulatory changes on market exchanges to incentivize SMEs to tap the public capital market. We further look at the recent trends in VC industry and analyse the phenomenon of crowdfunding that became a viable alternative to the traditional credit channels. Lastly, we look at the rapidly evolving Financial Technology (Fintech) sector and ICOs as its means of financing.
