The present study attempts to estimate the shadow price of unextracted groundwater in the Vozvozi aquifer. In the context of this study, we model the production function of vertically integrated agricultural firms in terms of an input-oriented distance function with multiple inputs. Duality...

This paper examines the performance of 358 European diversified equity mutual funds controlling for gender differences. Fund performance is evaluated against funds’ designated market indices and representative style portfolios. Consistently with previous studies, no significant differences in...

This paper uses the approach suggested by Akrigay (1989), Tse and Tung (1992) and Dimson and Marsh (1990) to examine the forecasting accuracy of stock price index models for industrialised markets. The focus of this paper is to compare the Mean Absolute Percentage Error (MAPE) of three models,...

Extreme Value Theory methods are used to investigate the distribution of the extreme minima in the German stock market over the period 1973 to 2001. Innovative aspects of this paper include (i) a wide set of distributions considered, (ii) L-moment diagrams employed to identify the most...

Using the event study methodology introduced by Brown and Warner (1985) for six Greek industrial and construction firms, we attempt to measure the abnormal returns on stock prices on the day of the acquisition announcement. Estimation period and event period in our market model is -211 -11 -10,...

Employing an augmented univariate EGARCH model, we estimate the dynamic impact of information arrival as measured by volume on asymmetric news in the pre and post 2009 global financial crisis in the Athens Stock Exchange (ASE). Our results reveal that trading volume appears to capture a...

Purpose –This paper develops the approach suggested by Howe et al. to examine the impact of cross-listings on stock price volatility in Europe. Design/methodology/approach - A modified generalized autoregressive conditional hetero-skedasticity (GARCH) modeling approach as suggested by Li and...

This study examines a combination of comovement and integration effects on volatility of home cross-listed equities in three Germanic markets (Frankfurt, Zurich and Vienna). Specifically, we investigate the impact of lagged stock prices and lagged futures contracts on asymmetric (bad and good...
