A novel model is proposed that has two stages. First, the financial innovation life cycle is weighted by the two-generation technology S-curve (TTSC) for renewable energy investments. Second, the TTSC is ranked with integer patterns for renewable energy investments. For this purpose, the decision-making trial and evaluation laboratory (DEMATEL) is considered with q-rung orthopair fuzzy sets (q-ROFSs). A comparative examination is then performed using intuitionistic and Pythagorean fuzzy sets, and we find similar results for all fuzzy sets. Hence, the suggested model is reliable and coherent. Maturity phase 1 is the most significant phase of the financial innovation life cycle for these projects. Aging is the most important period for financial innovation in renewable energy investment projects—renewable energy companies should make strategic decisions after that point. In this situation, decisions should relate to either radical or incremental innovation. If companies do not make decisions during these phases, innovative financial products cannot be improved. As a result, renewable energy companies will not prefer financing products.","PeriodicalId":37175,"journal":{"name":"Financial Innovation","volume":"16 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":8.4,"publicationDate":"2024-02-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139772241","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To this end, we used the time-varying parameter vector autoregression (TVP-VAR) asymmetric connectedness approach of Adekoya et al. (Resour Policy 77:102728, 2022a, Resour Policy 78:102877, 2022b) and analyzed the time-varying transmitting/receiving roles of sectors, considering the positive and negative impacts of the spillovers. We further estimate negative spillovers networks at two burst times (the declaration of the COVID-19 pandemic by the World Health Organization on 11 March 2020 and the start of Russian-Ukrainian war on 24 February 2022, respectively). Moreover, we performed a portfolio back-testing analysis to determine the time-varying portfolio allocations and hedging the effectiveness of different portfolio construction techniques. Our results reveal that (i) the sectoral return series are strongly interconnected, and negative spillovers dominate the study period; (ii) US sectoral returns are more sensitive to negative shocks, particularly during the burst times; (iii) the overall, positive, and negative connectedness indices reached their maximums on March 16, 2020; (iv) the industry sector is the largest transmitter/recipient of return shocks on average; and (v) the minimum correlation and connectedness portfolio approaches robustly capture asymmetries. Our findings provide suggestions for investors, portfolio managers, and policymakers regarding optimal portfolio strategies and risk supervision.","PeriodicalId":37175,"journal":{"name":"Financial Innovation","volume":"20 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":8.4,"publicationDate":"2024-02-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139773642","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper proposes to explain how financial assets influence realized volatility by developing an optimal day-to-day forecast. The methodological proposal is based on using the best econometric and machine learning models to forecast realized volatility. In particular, the best forecasting from heterogeneous autoregressive and long short-term memory models are used to determine the influence of the Standard and Poor’s 500 index, euro–US dollar exchange rate, price of gold, and price of Brent crude oil on the realized volatility of natural gas. These financial assets influenced the realized volatility of natural gas in 87.4% of the days analyzed; the euro–US dollar exchange rate was the primary financial asset and explained 40.1% of the influence. The results of the proposed daily analysis differed from those of the methodology used to study the entire period. The traditional model, which studies the entire period, cannot determine temporal effects, whereas the proposed methodology can. The proposed methodology allows us to distinguish the effects for each day, week, or month rather than averages for entire periods, with the flexibility to analyze different frequencies and periods. This methodological capability is key to analyzing influences and making decisions about realized volatility.","PeriodicalId":37175,"journal":{"name":"Financial Innovation","volume":"36 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":8.4,"publicationDate":"2024-01-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139578578","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

When the production process is a bit complicated, the calculation needs to be modified. Most existing studies are focused on a single-stage production process under the constant or variable returns to scale specification. However, some processes have two-stage structures, and, in such processes, the concepts of scale elasticity and returns to scale are inextricably related to the conditions of the stages of production. Thus, an evaluation of efficiency, scale elasticity, and returns to scale is sensitive to stages. In this study, we introduced a procedure to calculate technical efficiency and scale elasticity in a two-stage parallel-series production system. Then, our proposed technical efficiency and scale elasticity programs are applied to real data on 20 insurance companies in Iran. After applying our estimations to a real-world insurance industry, we found that, (i) overall, the total inputs of insurers in the life insurance sector should be reduced by 9%. Moreover, the inputs of nonlife insurers should be reduced by 50%. The final output in the investment sector must be increased by 48%. (ii) There are inefficiencies among all insurers in the investment sector, and to improve technical efficiency, the income from investments should be increased significantly. (iii) Finally, the efficiency and elasticity characterizations of insurers are directly subject to stages.","PeriodicalId":37175,"journal":{"name":"Financial Innovation","volume":"59 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":8.4,"publicationDate":"2024-01-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139578671","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The study employed both diagonal BEKK-GARCH and DCC-GARCH to analyze the existence of spillover effects and correlation between both markets. A daily time series dataset from January 1, 2017, to December 31, 2021, was employed to analyze the contagion effect. Our findings reveal a significant spillover effect from cryptocurrency to the African traditional financial market; however, the percentage spillover effect is still low but growing. Specifically, evidence is insufficient to suggest a spillover effect from cryptocurrency to Egypt and Morocco’s financial markets, at least in the short run. Evidence in South Africa, Nigeria, and Kenya indicates a moderate but growing spillover effect from cryptocurrency to the financial market. Similarly, we found no evidence of a spillover effect from the African financial market to the cryptocurrency market. The conditional correlation result from the DCC-GARCH revealed a positive low to moderate correlation between cryptocurrency volatility and the African financial market. Specifically, the DCC-GARCH revealed a greater integration in both markets, especially in the long run. The findings have policy implications for financial regulators concerning the dynamics of both markets and for investors interested in portfolio diversification within the two markets.","PeriodicalId":37175,"journal":{"name":"Financial Innovation","volume":"3 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":8.4,"publicationDate":"2024-01-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139578672","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Examples of NFTs include art (e.g., image, video, animation), collectables (e.g., autographs), and objects from games (e.g., weapons and poisons). NFTs provide content creators and artists a way to promote and sell their unique digital material online. NFT coins underpin the ecosystems that support NFTs and are a new and emerging asset class and, as a new and emerging asset class, NFT coins are not immune to economic uncertainty. This research seeks to address the following questions. What is the time and frequency relationship between economic uncertainty and NFT coins? Is the relationship similar across different NFT coins? As an emerging asset, do NFT coins exhibit explosive behavior and if so, what role does economic uncertainty play in their formation? Using a new Twitter-based economic uncertainty index and a related equity market uncertainty index it is found that wavelet coherence between NFT coin prices (ENJ, MANA, THETA, XTZ) and economic uncertainty or market uncertainty is strongest during the periods January 2020 to July 2020 and January 2022 to July 2022. Periods of high significance are centered around the 64-day scale. During periods of high coherence, economic and market uncertainty exhibit an out of phase relationship with NFT coin prices. Network connectedness shows that the highest connectedness occurred during 2020 and 2022 which is consistent with the findings from wavelet analysis. Infectious disease outbreaks (COVID-19), NFT coin price volatility, and Twitter-based economic uncertainty determine bubbles in NFT coin prices.","PeriodicalId":37175,"journal":{"name":"Financial Innovation","volume":"25 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":8.4,"publicationDate":"2024-01-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139578675","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, methods for effectively regulating GWBs in GFPs are unclear. This study constructed a tripartite evolutionary game model to analyze the formation and governance mechanisms of GWBs in GFPs among regulatory authorities, enterprises, and investors. Subsequently, the stability equilibrium strategy and key factors influencing the system equilibrium were discussed. Several interesting conclusions were drawn. First, we demonstrated that an interdependence mechanism exists among three game agents who mutually influence each other. The larger the probability of regulatory authorities choosing active supervision and investors adopting feedback, the more enterprises are willing to carry out green projects. Second, three corresponding governance modes for GWBs were put forward following the developmental stages of GFPs. Among these, the collaboration mode is the most effective in incentivizing enterprises to implement green projects. Third, based on sensitivity simulations, the initial willingness of the tripartite stakeholders, investor feedback cost, investor compensation, the penalty for greenwashing enterprises, and the reputational benefit of enterprises are critical factors that influence evolutionary results. Finally, targeted countermeasures were provided for regulatory authorities to prevent enterprises from engaging in GWBs.","PeriodicalId":37175,"journal":{"name":"Financial Innovation","volume":"37 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":8.4,"publicationDate":"2024-01-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139578676","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We compute the CoVaR for the two portfolios across five allocation strategies. The novel vine copula captures the complex dependence patterns and tail dynamics. The APARCH DCC incorporates volatility clustering, skewness, and kurtosis. The results reveal that the CoVaR estimates vary based on portfolio strategy, with higher values for the cryptocurrency portfolio. However, CoVaR appears relatively robust across strategies compared to ΔCoVaR. The cryptocurrency portfolio has a greater overall vulnerability. The findings demonstrate the value of CoVaR estimated via the vine copula and APARCH-DCC in assessing portfolio systemic risk. This advanced approach provides nuanced insights into strengthening risk management practices. Future research could explore the sensitivity of the CoVaR to different weighting schemes, such as equal versus market-weighted portfolios. Incorporating the Gram–Charlier expansion of normal density into the APARCH specification enables a nonparametric, data-driven fitting of the residual distribution. Furthermore, comparing the CoVaR to another systemic risk measure could provide further insights into its reliability as a systemic risk measure.","PeriodicalId":37175,"journal":{"name":"Financial Innovation","volume":"34 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":8.4,"publicationDate":"2024-01-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139555720","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Furthermore, its implications for investment opportunities and growth are even less known. The study investigates the link between energy indicators and Tobin's Quotient (TQ) in listed companies globally, finding that the carbon content of energy presents a negative yet modest effect on financial performance. Furthermore, we investigated the effect carbon prices in compliance markets have on TQ for exempted and non-exempt firms, finding that Energy efficiency measures yield greater effects in the latter group. Conversely, it is also true that carbon prices marginally reduce TQ more in non-exempt firms. This implies that auction-mechanisms create burdens that companies are eager to relinquish by reducing emissions. However, reducing GHG yields positive effects on TQ only as long as it results in energy efficiency improvements.","PeriodicalId":37175,"journal":{"name":"Financial Innovation","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":8.4,"publicationDate":"2024-01-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139514787","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
