Using a large panel of US BHC over the 2001:Q1-2015:Q4, we investigate the risk-taking behaviors of banks within a comparison perspective – between public and private banks - where there exists substantial differences of asymmetry information and agency problems. We document evidence of greater stability of public banks versus their private peers. However, public banks become riskier than private banks during the last crisis. These findings suggest a mixed evidence of risk-taking mitigating role of listing status. Regulatory pressure is effective in limiting risk taking by undercapitalized public banks before, but not during the crisis, casting doubt the effectiveness of regulators during the turmoil times. Public banks with high franchise value expose to risk less than others during the crisis. Debtholders discipline is ineffective in curbing the risk-taking behavior of banks. Our study is of interest for regulators, policymakers who are in search of improving bank risk-taking behavior.
利用2001年第一季度至2015年第四季度的大型美国BHC小组,我们从比较的角度研究了银行的风险承担行为-在公共银行和私人银行之间-其中存在着信息不对称和代理问题的实质性差异。我们记录了公共银行比私人银行更稳定的证据。然而,在上次危机中,公共银行比私人银行风险更大。这些发现表明,上市地位在降低风险方面的作用好坏参半。在此之前,监管压力在限制资本不足的公共银行的风险承担方面是有效的,但在危机期间则不然,这让人怀疑监管机构在动荡时期的有效性。在危机中,拥有高特许经营价值的公共银行比其他银行承担的风险要小。债权人纪律对于抑制银行的冒险行为是无效的。我们的研究对正在寻求改善银行冒险行为的监管机构和政策制定者很有意义。

Claim is the largest expenses of an insurance company. Therefore, claims management is seen as an essential tool of image boosting in insurance industry. Excellence in claims handling gives an insurance company a competitive edge over its competitors. For an insurance company, claims processing is one of its core activities. It could be said to be the main reason why insurance companies are established. Managing it more effectively and efficiently, aligning it with corporate business objectives, and achieving real-time operational awareness are high priorities of an insurance company. This is because claims processing touches all part of the organization, affecting competitive positioning, customer service, fraud management, risk exposure, cost control and Information Technology infrastructure. The objective of this research therefore, is to empirically investigate the impact of claims management on the profitability of non-life insurance companies in the Nigeria insurance industry. Hypotheses were tested to find out whether claims management is significantly related to profitability of non-life insurance companies in Nigeria. The study adopts longitudinal design which follow the same sample over time and make repeated observations; hypotheses were tested using correlation analysis. The study revealed that there is a significant relationship between claims management and the operating cost of non-life insurance companies in Nigeria. However, the study revealed that there is no significant relationship between claims management and profitability of non-life insurance companies in Nigeria. It is recommended that the claims management department should be properly structured with highly technical, trained and experience staff so as to manage the claims of insurance companies properly as a well managed claim lead to profitability through repeated purchase.
理赔是保险公司最大的一项开支。因此,理赔管理被视为保险业形象提升的重要工具。卓越的理赔处理使保险公司比其竞争对手具有竞争优势。对于保险公司来说,理赔处理是其核心活动之一。这可以说是保险公司成立的主要原因。更有效和高效地管理它,使其与公司业务目标保持一致,并实现实时操作意识是保险公司的首要任务。这是因为索赔处理涉及组织的所有部分,影响竞争定位、客户服务、欺诈管理、风险暴露、成本控制和信息技术基础设施。因此,本研究的目的是实证调查索赔管理对尼日利亚保险业非寿险公司盈利能力的影响。假设进行了检验,以找出索赔管理是否与尼日利亚非寿险公司的盈利能力显著相关。本研究采用纵向设计,对同一样本进行长期跟踪,重复观察;采用相关分析对假设进行检验。研究表明,尼日利亚非寿险公司的索赔管理与运营成本之间存在显著关系。然而,研究表明,尼日利亚非寿险公司的索赔管理与盈利能力之间没有显著的关系。建议理赔管理部门结构合理,配备技术水平高、训练有素、经验丰富的员工,妥善管理保险公司的理赔,使理赔管理得当,通过反复购买实现盈利。

Governing the Good State Shareholder: The Case of the OECD Guidelines on Corporate Governance of State-Owned Enterprises 治理好国有股东:以经合组织国有企业公司治理指南为例
Pub Date : 2018-02-01 DOI: 10.54648/eulr2018005

The newly revised Guidelines on Corporate Governance of State-Owned Enterprises (2015) by the OECD are fast emerging as a new regulatory paradigm for the administration of State-owned enterprises and the organization of the State ownership function. This article analyses the Guidelines’ policy prescriptions, governance strategies, and integration into global governance. Noting that the instrument operates by governing the shareholder’s internal make-up, decision-making and objective setting, the article argues that the Guidelines amount to a robust model for an ideal State shareholder – the Good State Shareholder. Efficient, engaged, and accountable, the Good State Shareholder emerges as a critical actor in the contemporary global economy, where States continue to amass and command immense shareholder power. However, when juxtaposed with the recent attempts by the UN to adopt State ownership as an instrument of human rights governance, the fault lines of the Good State Shareholder model, as well as the emerging techniques of shareholder governance, are exposed.
经合组织新修订的《国有企业公司治理指南》(2015年)正迅速成为国有企业管理和国有职能组织的新监管范式。本文分析了《纲要》的政策处方、治理策略以及与全球治理的融合。文章指出,该工具通过对股东的内部构成、决策和目标设定进行管理而发挥作用。文章认为,《准则》相当于理想国家股东——良好国家股东的一个强有力的模式。高效、参与和负责任的良好国家股东成为当代全球经济中的关键角色,各国继续积累和掌握巨大的股东权力。然而,当与联合国最近将国家所有权作为人权治理工具的尝试并置时,良好国家股东模式的断层线以及新兴的股东治理技术就暴露出来了。

Will Tenure Voting Give Corporate Managers Lifetime Tenure? 任期投票会给公司经理带来终身任期吗?
Pub Date : 2018-02-01 DOI: 10.2139/ssrn.3107225
Paul H. Edelman, Wei Jiang, Randall S. Thomas
Dual-class voting systems have been widely employed in recent initial public offerings by large tech companies, but have been roundly condemned by institutional investors and the S&P 500. As an alternative, commentators have proposed adoption of tenure voting systems, where investor voting rights increase with the length of time that they hold shares. In furtherance of this proposal, some Silicon Valley investors have requested that the SEC permit the creation of a new stock exchange where all of the companies will be required to use tenure voting systems. Is tenure voting a better choice than dual-class stock for both corporate management and shareholders? In this paper, we review the arguments for and against tenure voting that have been made in the literature. In order to shed light on these claims veracity, we generate the first data base that documents institutional investor portfolio turnover rates for stock. We use this data to inform our mathematical voting model of tenure voting to show how its adoption would affect control rights within the corporation. We make two main findings that shed light on this question. First, we show that when corporate management holds a large block of company stock prior to the implementation of tenure voting, and retains at least 20-30% of the total number of company shares on a long term basis, then tenure voting will insure that corporate managers maintain control of the company even in the face of an attempted change of control transaction by a highly motivated dissident shareholder. Our second important finding is that if corporate management chooses to sell off its large initial block of the company’s stock over time, so that inside ownership levels drop eventually down to a low percentage level with the majority of ownership held by institutional shareholders with different investment horizons, then the use of tenure voting systems does little to protect management control in a proxy contest for corporate control. We conclude that tenure voting does indeed represent an intermediate form of voting control from a managers’ perspective: it does not guarantee management control, as dual-class share structures do, but does give control to management who maintain large equity stakes in the firm. Institutional investors are likely to see it as an improvement over dual-class stock structures in terms of giving them corporate governance rights, although less advantageous to these shareholders’ rights than a one share, one vote voting system.
近年来,大型科技公司在首次公开发行(ipo)中广泛采用了双层投票制度,但遭到了机构投资者和标准普尔500指数(S&P 500)的严厉谴责。作为替代方案,评论人士建议采用终身投票权制度,即投资者的投票权随着持股时间的延长而增加。为了推进这一提议,一些硅谷投资者要求美国证券交易委员会允许创建一个新的证券交易所,所有公司都将被要求使用任期投票制度。对公司管理层和股东来说,终身投票权是否比双重股权结构更好?在本文中,我们回顾了文献中提出的支持和反对任期投票的论点。为了阐明这些说法的真实性,我们生成了第一个记录机构投资者投资组合股票换手率的数据库。我们使用这些数据来告知我们的终身任期投票的数学投票模型,以显示其采用将如何影响公司内部的控制权。我们有两个主要发现来阐明这个问题。首先,我们表明,当公司管理层在实施任期投票之前持有大量公司股票,并长期保留至少20-30%的公司股份时,那么任期投票将确保公司经理即使面对高度动机的持不同政见的股东试图改变控制权交易时也能保持对公司的控制。我们的第二个重要发现是,如果公司管理层选择随着时间的推移出售其最初持有的大量公司股票,从而使内部所有权水平最终下降到一个较低的百分比水平,而大多数所有权由不同投资范围的机构股东持有,那么在公司控制权的代理权竞争中,使用任期投票制度对保护管理层控制权几乎没有作用。我们得出的结论是,从管理者的角度来看,任期投票确实代表了一种中间形式的投票控制:它不像双重股权结构那样保证管理层的控制,但确实赋予了持有公司大量股权的管理层控制权。机构投资者可能会认为,这是对双重股权结构的改进,因为它赋予了他们公司治理权,尽管对这些股东的权利来说,不如一股一票的投票制度有利。

Governance Challenges of Listed State-Owned Enterprises Around the World: National Experiences and a Framework for Reform 全球国有上市企业治理挑战:国家经验与改革框架

Despite predictions of their demise in the aftermath of the collapse of socialist economies in Eastern Europe, state-owned enterprises (SOEs) are very much alive in the global economy. The relevance of listed SOEs — firms still subject to government ownership, a portion of whose shares are traded on public stock markets — has persisted and even increased around the world, as policymakers have encouraged the partial floating of SOE shares either as a first step toward, or as an alternative to, privatization. In this article, we evaluate the governance challenges associated with mixed ownership of enterprise, and examine a variety of national approaches to the governance of listed SOEs, with a view to framing a robust policy discussion in the many countries where SOE reform is a topic of major significance. We describe the evolution and current status of the institutional framework applicable to listed SOEs in eight different jurisdictions, reflecting a variety of economic, legal, and political environments: France, the United States, Norway, Colombia, Brazil, Japan, Singapore, and China. We leverage the lessons from this comparative analysis to critique the policy prescriptions of international agencies such as the OECD, and to frame policy suggestions of our own.
尽管有预测称,随着东欧社会主义经济的崩溃,国有企业将会消亡,但它们在全球经济中依然生机勃勃。上市国有企业的重要性在全球范围内持续存在,甚至有所增加,因为政策制定者鼓励国有企业部分上市,作为私有化的第一步或替代方案。上市国有企业仍归政府所有,其中一部分股票在公开股票市场上交易。在本文中,我们评估了与企业混合所有制相关的治理挑战,并研究了上市国有企业治理的各种国家方法,以期在国有企业改革具有重大意义的许多国家建立强有力的政策讨论。我们描述了八个不同司法管辖区适用于上市国有企业的制度框架的演变和现状,反映了不同的经济、法律和政治环境:法国、美国、挪威、哥伦比亚、巴西、日本、新加坡和中国。我们利用这种比较分析的经验教训来批评经合组织等国际机构的政策处方,并提出我们自己的政策建议。

Corporate Governance and Firm Value at Dual Class Firms 双重股权结构公司的公司治理与公司价值
Pub Date : 2017-02-01 DOI: 10.2139/ssrn.2968564
Ting Li, N. Zaiats
Abstract This study explores whether corporate governance at dual class firms differs from that of their single class counterparts and whether firm value at dual class firms is associated with governance. Employing a sample of 1309 U.S. dual class firm-year observations for the period 1996–2006, we show evidence that dual class firms are more likely to employ more shareholder rights provisions while exhibiting lower board and board committee independence than single class firms. The results also show that shareholder rights increase while board provisions decrease in wedge at dual class firms. Further findings underscore that firm value at dual class firms decreases in wedge, and increases in shareholder rights and in board-related provisions, particularly in director independence. While strong board-related governance at dual class firms is significantly positively related to firm value in a multivariate setting, shareholder rights are significantly associated with firm value only in instances of the weakest board provisions. Following unification, firms employ more antitakeover provisions while strengthening their board and board committee independence.
摘要本研究探讨双层公司的公司治理是否与单层公司有所不同,双层公司的公司价值是否与公司治理相关。通过对1996-2006年期间1309家美国双股权公司的年度观察样本,我们发现,与单股权公司相比,双股权公司更有可能采用更多的股东权利条款,同时表现出较低的董事会和董事会委员会独立性。结果还表明,在双重股权结构公司中,股东权利增加而董事会规定减少。进一步的研究结果强调,双重股权结构公司的公司价值在楔形下降,而在股东权利和董事会相关规定,特别是在董事独立性方面增加。虽然在多元环境下,双重股权结构公司强有力的董事会相关治理与公司价值显著正相关,但股东权利只有在董事会规定最薄弱的情况下才与公司价值显著相关。统一后,公司采用更多的反收购条款,同时加强董事会和董事会委员会的独立性。

LLPs and Professional Malpractice Insurance: Grading the Mortgage Grader Decision 有限责任合伙企业和职业医疗事故保险:抵押贷款评级机构的评级决策
Pub Date : 2016-11-21 DOI: 10.2139/SSRN.2873675
T. Rutledge
A limited liability partnership (LLP) is first a general partnership that makes a special election for LLP status, thereby achieving limited liability for the partners. Many states, including New Jersey and Kentucky, require that, in order for a law firm to elect LLP status, it must have in place malpractice insurance or similar protections for clients. The rules as to the maintenance of malpractice insurance are, however, generally silent as to the consequences when that requirement is not satisfied.
有限责任合伙(LLP)首先是一个普通合伙,通过特别选举LLP身份,从而实现合伙人的有限责任。包括新泽西州和肯塔基州在内的许多州都规定,要想获得LLP资格,律师事务所必须为客户提供医疗事故保险或类似的保护措施。然而,关于维持医疗事故保险的规则一般没有说明不满足这一要求时的后果。

Portfolio Execution with Multi-Period Stochastic Forecasts and Size Constraints 具有多周期随机预测和规模约束的投资组合执行
Pub Date : 2016-09-28 DOI: 10.2139/ssrn.2814597
Dmitriy Nuriyev
This paper investigates the problem of finding a dynamically updating trading schedule for a portfolio with stochastically evolving forecasts, absolute value based execution costs and a decaying market impact as well as size constraints. This is achieved by deriving a continuous time stochastic state evolution model as well as a Hamiltonian with a corresponding HJB equation which is then approximately solved to third order accuracy which provides a Value function and the optimal controls.
本文研究了具有随机演化预测、基于绝对值的执行成本、衰减市场影响和规模约束的投资组合的动态更新交易计划问题。这是通过导出连续时间随机状态演化模型以及具有相应HJB方程的哈密顿量来实现的,然后近似求解到三阶精度,从而提供值函数和最优控制。

Insurance Choice Under Third Degree Stochastic Dominance 三度随机优势下的保险选择
Pub Date : 2016-05-23 DOI: 10.2139/ssrn.2783203
Yichun Chi
In this paper, we investigate the insurance choice of a risk-averse and prudent insured by assuming that the insurance premium is calculated by a general mean–variance principle. This general class of premium principles encompasses many widely used premium principles such as expected value, variance related, modified variance and mean value principles. We show that any admissible insurance contract, in which the marginal indemnity above a deductible minimum is decreasing in the loss and has a value greater than zero and less than one, is suboptimal to a dual change-loss insurance policy or a change-loss insurance policy, depending upon the coefficient of variation of the ceded loss. Especially for variance related premium principles, it is shown that the change-loss insurance is optimal. In addition to change-loss insurance, a numerical example illustrates that the dual change-loss insurance may also be an optimal choice when the insurance premium is calculated by mean value principle.
本文在假定保费按一般均值-方差原则计算的前提下,研究了风险规避型和谨慎型投保人的保险选择问题。这类一般的溢价原则包括许多广泛使用的溢价原则,如期望值、方差相关原则、修正方差原则和均值原则。我们证明了任何可接受的保险合同,其中边际赔偿高于可扣除的最小值在损失中减少并且值大于零且小于1,对于双重变化损失保险单或变化损失保险单来说是次优的,这取决于损失的变化系数。特别是对于与方差相关的保费原则,证明了变化损失保险是最优的。除了变更损失保险外,数值算例表明,当保费按均值原则计算时,双变更损失保险也可能是最优选择。

Regulating Bitcoin: On What Grounds? 监管比特币:基于什么?
Pub Date : 2016-05-13 DOI: 10.2139/ssrn.2631307
William J. Luther
Bitcoin is a relatively new technology with much promise. As the world’s first successful cryptocurrency, it seems likely to lower the costs of transacting. Nonetheless, many regulators hold a strong presumption that something must be done. I considered the popular justifications for regulating bitcoin with the idea of efficient regulation in mind. I also offer some simple guidelines for regulators to keep in mind while moving forward.
比特币是一项相对较新的技术,前景广阔。作为世界上第一个成功的加密货币,比特币似乎有可能降低交易成本。尽管如此,许多监管机构强烈认为必须采取行动。我考虑了监管比特币的流行理由,并考虑了有效监管的想法。我还提供了一些简单的指导方针,供监管机构在前进的过程中牢记。
