Cross Hedging Under Multiplicative Basis Risk [PDF]

open access: yesSSRN Electronic Journal, 2011
Cross hedging price risk in an incomplete financial market creates basis risk. We propose a new way of modeling basis risk where price risk and basis risk are combined in a multiplicative way. Under this specification, positive prudence is a necessary and sufficient condition for underhedging in an unbiased market.

Risk management for whales [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
We propose framework for modeling portfolio risk which integrates market risk with liquidation costs which may arise in stress scenarios. Our model provides a systematic method for computing liquidation-adjusted risk measures for a portfolio. Calculation

The Neural Basis of Financial Risk Taking [PDF]

open access: yesNeuron, 2005
Investors systematically deviate from rationality when making financial decisions, yet the mechanisms responsible for these deviations have not been identified. Using event-related fMRI, we examined whether anticipatory neural activity would predict optimal and suboptimal choices in a financial decision-making task.

On Fund Mapping Regressions Applied to Segregated Funds Hedging Under Regime-Switching Dynamics

open access: yesRisks, 2018
Insurers issuing segregated fund policies apply dynamic hedging to mitigate risks related to guarantees embedded in such policies. A typical industry practice consists of using fund mapping regressions to represent basis risk stemming from the imperfect ...

Subcutaneous Administration of Apolipoprotein J-Derived Mimetic Peptide d-[113–122]apoJ Improves LDL and HDL Function and Prevents Atherosclerosis in LDLR-KO Mice

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2020
Mimetic peptides are potential therapeutic agents for atherosclerosis. d-[113–122]apolipoprotein (apo) J (d-[113–122]apoJ) is a 10-residue peptide that is predicted to form a class G* amphipathic helix 6 from apoJ; it shows anti-inflammatory and anti ...

Index insurance and basis risk: A reconsideration

open access: yesJournal of Development Economics, 2020
Index insurance has been seen as an important tool for managing the risks faced by farmers in developing countries but uptake has been disappointingly low. Basis risk is often cited as one of the main reasons for the lack of uptake. We investigate the role of basis risk in greater depth by considering contracts that allow farmers to choose the level of

Hedging Crop Yields Against Weather Uncertainties—A Weather Derivative Perspective

open access: yesMathematical and Computational Applications, 2019
The effects of weather on agriculture in recent years have become a major global concern. Hence, an effective weather risk management tool (i.e., weather derivatives) that can hedge crop yields against weather uncertainties is needed.

Trust and Risk Relationship Analysis on a Workflow Basis: A Use Case [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Trust and risk are often seen in proportion to each other; as such, high trust may induce low risk and vice versa. However, recent research argues that trust and risk relationship is implicit rather than proportional.
