We empirically analyze the impact of uninsured deposits on a bank's cost of public debt. Uninsured depositors can exert market discipline over a bank and potentially reduce its agency cost of debt through informed monitoring. We use a sample of public bond issues by U.S. bank holding companies...

Recent studies document strong empirical support for multifactor models that aim to explain the cross-sectional variation in corporate bond expected excess returns. We revisit these findings and provide evidence that common factor pricing in corporate bonds is exceedingly difficult to establish....

We investigate the impact of enterprise digital transformation on bond credit spread based on Chinese A-share listed companies. The empirical results show that digital transformation has a significant impact on reducing credit spread and the negative relation is robust to a number of robustness...

In this paper, we price a widely-used financial instrument, the callable range accrual linked to constant maturity swap (CMS) spread, with the least square Monte Carlo method (LSMC) under the generalized swap market model (GSMM). This method, based on the swap rate, does not only provide an...

This paper studies the pricing of discrete arithmetic Asian options (AAOs) with fixed strikes under the Hull-White interest rate model. For the pricing of AAOs, we first investigate the stochastic dynamics of the price of the underlying asset under the T-forward measure, and then study the...

This study shows that corporate debt accumulation during credit booms can explain increases in sovereign risk during stress periods. Using detailed firmlevel database across six Eurozone countries, I construct granular instruments for aggregate corporate leverage. Instrumental variable...

In the transmission of monetary policy, banks’ administered interest rates set by their market power may not coordinate well with the policy intention. In this study, we examine the effect of banks’ net interest rate spread (NIS) on real economic growth in response to changes in the...
