Stellen Events eine Möglichkeit dar, nachhaltige Mobilität erlebnis-, ereignis- und letztendlich erfolgreicher zu kommunizieren? Anhand eines Vergleichs zwischen Unternehmen der Automobilindustrie und öffentlichen Nahverkehrsunternehmen werden Antworten auf diese Frage gesucht. Dabei wird das...

Das vorliegende Wuppertal Paper setzt sich mit der Frage der Verankerung von Daseinsvorsorge und Dienstleistungsqualität im Öffentlichen Personennahverkehr (ÖPNV) auseinander. Das Papier liefert eine Diskussionsgrundlage, die - ausgehend von der derzeitigen Gesetzeslage - das Politikfeld...

We derive the Green's function for the Black-Scholes partial differential equation with time-varying coefficients and time-dependent boundary conditions. We provide a thorough discussion of its implementation within a pricing algorithm that also accommodates American style options. Greeks can be...

We introduce closed-form transition density expansions for multivariate affine jump-diffusion processes. The expansions rely on a general approximation theory which we develop in weighted Hilbert spaces for random variables which possess all polynomial moments. We establish parametric conditions...

The Amin/Bodurtha framework was developed for the valuation of American-style financial instruments driven by three sources of uncertainty— domestic interest rate risk, foreign interest rate risk and exchange rate risk. The model is not only appropriate for pricing a number of financial...

This paper investigates the performance of international affine term structure models (ATSMs) that are driven by a mutual set of global state variables. We discuss which mixture of Gaussian and square root processes is best suited for modelling international bond markets. We derive necessary...

Using an extensive cross section of U.S. corporate credit default swaps (CDSs), this paper offers an economic understanding of implied loss given default (LGD) and jumps in default risk. We formulate and underpin empirical stylized facts about CDS spreads, which are then reproduced in our affine...

We study the properties of foreign exchange risk premiums that can explain the forward bias puzzle, defined as the tendency of high-interest rate currencies to appreciate rather than depreciate. These risk premiums arise endogenously from the no-arbitrage condition relating the term structure of...
