"Empirical Likelihood Methods in Econometrics: Theory and Practice" [PDF]
Recent developments in empirical likelihood (EL) methods are reviewed. First, to put the method inperspective, two interpretations of empirical likelihood are presented, one as a nonparametric maximum likelihood estimation method (NPMLE) and the other as

Interplay Between Green Investment and Market Price Premia in Global Shipping
International Journal of Finance &Economics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Existing research emphasises that the driver of green investment is its future profitability. This paper shows that other investors' decisions also influence green investment. We take the example of scrubber installation in shipping, which is optional by regulation but has an established market for trading its underlying asset.

Household Consumption Intentions by Income Group During Monetary Policy Easing and Tightening
International Journal of Finance &Economics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT We investigate how the monetary policy interest rate affects Brazilian households' consumption intentions under two distinct regimes: monetary easing and tightening cycles. Using data from low‐ and high‐income households, we assess both the magnitude and the dynamics of this relationship.

Empirical likelihood estimators for the error distribution in nonparametric regression models [PDF]
The aim of this paper is to show that existing estimators for the error distribution in nonparametric regression models can be improved when additional information about the distribution is included by the empirical likelihood method.

Institutional Diversity in Banking and Economic Complexity
International Journal of Finance &Economics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT In this paper, we test whether institutional diversity in banking systems is beneficial to economic complexity, using data for Italian provinces in the period 1998–2017. We compute different indexes that consider diversity from an ownership, institutional, business model and competition point of view and find that higher diversity has a ...

Inference about predictive ability when there are many predictors [PDF]
We enhance the theory of asymptotic inference about predictive ability by considering the case when a set of variables used to construct predictions is sizable.

Carbon Performance, Climate Governance, and Equity Risk
International Journal of Finance &Economics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This paper examines the relationship between carbon performance, climate governance, and equity risk. Using a sample of companies listed in the S&P500 index for the period 2009–2023, our results show that better carbon performance reduces equity risk, indicating that proactive carbon management reduces uncertainty and is beneficial to firms ...

WORST-CASE ESTIMATION AND ASYMPTOTIC THEORY FOR MODELS WITH UNOBSERVABLES [PDF]
This paper proposes a worst-case approach for estimating econometric models containing unobservable variables. Worst-case estimators are robust against the adverse effects of unobservables.
