  • An Analysis of the Level of Qualitative Efficiency for the Equity Research Reports in the Italian Financial Market
    http://ijba.sciedupress.com International Journal of Business Administration Vol. 9, No. 2; 2018 An Analysis of the Level of Qualitative Efficiency for the Equity Research Reports in the Italian Financial Market Paola Fandella1 1 Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore, Italy Correspondence: Paola Fandella, Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore, Italy. Received: January 15, 2018 Accepted: February 6, 2018 Online Published: February 8, 2018 doi:10.5430/ijba.v9n2p21 URL: https://doi.org/10.5430/ijba.v9n2p21 Abstract Corporate reports issued by various financial intermediaries play a major role in investment decisions. For this reason, it is particularly interesting to understand the accuracy of the forecasts, by carrying out an empirical analysis of the "equity research" system in Italy, identifying structural features, degree of reliability and incidence in the market. The choice of the analysis of the efficiency level information on the Italian market proposes to assess the interest of equity research of a niche market (339 listed companies in 2017) but with characteristics of potential growth such as having been acquired by LSEGroup in 2007, the 6th stock-exchange group at international level for the number of listed companies and the 4th for capitalization. The analysis was carried out on the reports issued on companies belonging to the Ftse Mib stock index during a period of 5 years. It aims to analyse the composition of the equity research system in Italy as well as the analysts' ability to properly evaluate the stocks' fair price, so as to test their degree of reliability and detect possible anomalies in recommendations to the investors.

  • Insurance in Agriculture
    INSURANCE IN AGRICULTURE Review Article Economics of Agriculture 1/2013 UDC: 368.5 INSURANCE IN AGRICULTURE Milan Počuča1, Zdravko Petrović2, Dragan Mrkšić3 Summary Damage in agricultural production can be crucial for the economy of a state, especially in countries where agricultural production prevails in the gross national income, as it is the case with Serbia. However, it is equally important that our agricultural producers manage incomes and expenditures in an efficient manner and optimize profit per surface unit, which is the basis of their business. Insurance plays an important part in the protection of the income statement of every agricultural producer as insurance costs are at the level of 1.5% to 2% on average of the production value, i.e. they are very low and saving on insurance could lead to the loss of the total yield and consequently total profit. However, agricultural insurance in Serbia is not developed enough. The state’s attempt to boost insurance development amounts to insurance subsidies, which, in the period of the implementation of this regulation, i.e. since 2006, has raised awareness of the need of such a type of protection of agricultural producers. Key words: agriculture, insurance, subsidies JEL: K13, Q14 Introduction People are not prone to taking risk and prefer certainty than uncertain consumption levels; essentially they prefer more certain outcomes4. This does not mean that risk should be avoided at all costs, but only that it should be considered when taking decisions5. From the point of view of an agricultural producer, insurance represents a method of the transfer of risk from themselves to an insurance company, in exchange for a premium in a certain amount.
