Petersen Co-Supervisor: Dr. Use M. Schoeman November 2008 Potchefstroom Page i of 173 Abstract A topical issue in financial economics is the development of appropriate stochastic dynamic models for banking items and behavior. The issue here is to fulfill the need to generalize the more traditional discrete-time models of banking activity to a Levy process setting. In this thesis, under the assumption that the loan market is imperfectly competitive, we investigate the evolution of banking items such as bank assets (cash, bonds, shares, Treasuries, reserves, loans and intangible assets), liabilities (demand deposits) and bank capital (bank equity, subordinate debt and loan loss reserves). Here we consider the influence of macroeconomic factors and profitability as well as its indicators return on assets (ROA) and return on equity (ROE). As far as bank assets are concerned, we note that loan pricing models usually reflect the financial funding cost, risk premium to compensate for the risk of default by the borrower, a premium reflecting market power exercised by the bank and the sensitivity of the cost of capital raised to changes in loans extended.

Lời Nói đầu: Hàng loạt các báo cáo của Marrill Lynch, HSBC…v.v… đều nhận định thị trường chứng khoán Việt Nam từ nay tới cuối năm không thể có sự bứt phá mạnh mẽ. Phần lớn các tổ chức đều thận trọng đánh giá điểm dừng của VnIndex cuối năm nay trong phạm vi từ 400 tới 500 điểm. Với thực trạng về sức khoẻ tổng thể của nền kinh tế Việt Nam khi mới đây chính phủ quyết định tăng giá xăng lên 19(ngàn/lít) sẽ thúc đẩy lạm phát tăng cao hơn trong giai đoạn cuối năm, kết hợp những phân tích tổng quan tình hình kinh tế, chính trị, diễn biến thị trường hàng hoá trong và ngoài nước chúng tôi cho rằng những đánh giá của các tổ chức là hoàn toàn phù hợp.

Προς την κατεύθυνση αυτή, εκτιμάται ότι θα συμβάλουν τόσο η σημαντική βελτίωση του μακροοικονομικού περιβάλλοντος και η συνακόλουθη αύξηση του επενδυτικού ενδιαφέροντος όσο και η ενίσχυση της ροής ακινήτων προς τα χαρτοφυλάκια των τραπεζών από τη διαδικασία των πλειστηριασμών. Υπενθυμίζεται ότι, σήμερα, στο χαρτοφυλάκιο των τεσσάρων συστημικών τραπεζών (Τράπεζα Πειραιώς, Alpha Bank, Εθνική Τράπεζα και Eurobank) βρίσκονται περίπου 10.000 ακίνητα, με την πλειονότητα εξ αυτών να αφορά διαμερίσματα και κατοικίες. Όπως Ο όμιλος της Τράπεζας Πειραιώς άντλησε περί τα 55 εκατ. ευρώ από την πώληση 300 ακινήτων το 2017, ποσό που ήταν σχεδόν τριπλάσιο σε σχέση με τον ετήσιο μέσον όρο των προηγούμενων ετών. Σύμφωνα με τον κ. Γεώργιο Κορμά, διευθύνοντα σύμβουλο της Πειραιώς Real Estate και της Picar, στόχος για το 2018 είναι η ακόμα μεγαλύτερη βελτίωση της περυσινής επίδοσης, καθώς, όπως τονίζει, «η στόχευσή μας είναι η πιο δυναμική παρουσία μας στην αγορά και η αξιοποίηση του συνόλου του υφιστάμενου χαρτοφυλακίου μας, που περιλαμβάνει ακίνητα όλων των κατηγοριών, από οικόπεδα μέχρι ξενοδοχεία και από γραφεία μέχρι καταστήματα και κατοικίες». Το 2017, το 40% των πωληθέντων ακινήτων ήταν κατοικίες και το 35% επαγγελματικά ακίνητα.

Evidence from a Global Perspective. Kilintari Sofia SID: 3302120028 SCHOOL OF SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY A thesis submitted for the degree of Master of Science (MSc) in Energy Systems Supervisor: Dr. T. Dergiades Supervising Committee Members: DECEMBER 2013 THESSALONIKI-GREECE 2 Does Crude Oil Price Volatility pass on the Stock Market? Evidence from a Global Perspective. By Kilintari Sofia Abstract The present dissertation study investigates empirically the volatility spillover from oil prices to stock markets from a global perspective. The crude oil volatility will be identified through the newly published CBOE Crude Oil Volatility Index (OVX) while at the same time global stock markets will be examined through global stock indexes such as MSCI ACWI, BBC Global 30, Dow Jones Global Titans, FTSE Global100, Global Dow, S&P Global Net Return, S&P Global 1200. For the purpose of this study, we use daily time series data which have been retrieved from the Blooomberg database. The preliminary econometric analysis begins with unit root and stationarity tests in order to test the order of integration of variables and proceeds with cointegration tests. To examine the interrelationship between the variables of interest advance causality techniques were applied. Firstly, the traditional Granger causality test and Todo-Yamamoto causality test were implemented to reveal the linear causality.

Unofficial stock markets existed across Europe through the 1600s, where brokers would meet outside or in coffee houses to make trades ). The Amsterdam Stock Exchange, created in 1602, became the first official stock exchange when it began trading shares of the Dutch East India Company. These were the first company shares ever issued. By the early 1700s there were fully operational stock exchanges in France and England and America followed in the later part of the century. Stock exchanges became an important way for companies to raise capital for investment, while also offering investors the opportunity to share in company profits.

  • The Global Economic & Financial Crisis: a Timeline
    1 The Global Economic & Financial Crisis: A Timeline Mauro F. Guillén Director of the Lauder Institute [email protected] Wednesday, February 7, 2007: HSBC announces losses linked to U.S. subprime mortgages. Tuesday, April 3, 2007: New Century Financial, which specializes in sub-prime mortgages, files for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection and cuts half of its workforce. Thursday, May 17, 2007: Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke said growing number of mortgage defaults will not seriously harm the U.S. economy. Wednesday, June 2007: Two Bear Stearns-run hedge funds with large holdings of subprime mortgages run into large losses and are forced to dump assets. The trouble spreads to major Wall Street firms such as Merrill Lynch, JPMorgan Chase, Citigroup and Goldman Sachs which had loaned the firms money. July 2007: Investment bank Bear Stearns tells investors they will get little, if any, of the money invested in two of its hedge funds after rival banks refuse to help it bail them out. Thursday, August 9, 2007: Investment bank BNP Paribas tells investors they will not be able to take money out of two of its funds because it cannot value the assets in them, owing to a "complete evaporation of liquidity" in the market. The European Central Bank pumps 95bn euros (£63bn) into the banking market to try to improve liquidity. It adds a further 108.7bn euros over the next few days. The US Federal Reserve, the Bank of Canada and the Bank of Japan also begin to intervene. Friday, August 17, 2007: The Fed cuts the rate at which it lends to banks by half of a percentage point to 5.75%, warning the credit crunch could be a risk to economic growth.

The goal of the project is for the participant to gain stock trading experience through a real-time simulation so that she can make calculated, well-informed stock investment decisions in the future. This project reviewed the current stock market, analyzed two existing trading techniques, and ran stock simulations on six targeted companies with an investment of $500,000 for each trading method. The results from the simulations indicate that the Technical Trading method is more profitable than the Swing Trading method. This project provided the participant with valuable trading experiences that will be beneficial to future investments. 2 Acknowledgements The success of my Interactive Qualifying project (IQP) would not have been possible without the help of many individuals.

  • The Financial Crisis, After Warning That No Country Would Be Immune from the Ripple Effects of the Credit Crunch
    1 The Global Economic & Financial Crisis: A Timeline Mauro F. Guillén Director of the Lauder Institute [email protected] Wednesday, February 7, 2007: HSBC announces losses linked to U.S. subprime mortgages.

Thursday, May 17, 2007: Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke said growing number of mortgage defaults will not seriously harm the U.S. economy. Wednesday, June 2007: Two Bear Stearns-run hedge funds with large holdings of subprime mortgages run into large losses and are forced to dump assets. The trouble spreads to major Wall Street firms such as Merrill Lynch, JPMorgan Chase, Citigroup and Goldman Sachs which had loaned the firms money. July 2007: Investment bank Bear Stearns tells investors they will get little, if any, of the money invested in two of its hedge funds after rival banks refuse to help it bail them out. Thursday, August 9, 2007: Investment bank BNP Paribas tells investors they will not be able to take money out of two of its funds because it cannot value the assets in them, owing to a "complete evaporation of liquidity" in the market. The European Central Bank pumps 95bn euros (£63bn) into the banking market to try to improve liquidity. It adds a further 108.7bn euros over the next few days. The US Federal Reserve, the Bank of Canada and the Bank of Japan also begin to intervene.
