Strikingly, these forms of self‐entrapment are not simply the result of reason being overpowered by forces external to it, but arise out of reason itself, as pathological versions of otherwise ...

How Does Credit Information Sharing Shape the Cyclicality of Bank Liquidity Creation?
ABSTRACT We investigate the effect of credit information sharing in the banking sector on the fluctuations of bank liquidity creation over the business cycle. Using the Berger and Bouwman comprehensive measure of bank liquidity creation and data representing 354 banks from 40 developing countries between 2012 and 2020, we find that on‐ and off‐balance ...

The first stage addresses a multi‐objective problem where conflictive impacts generated by the energy portfolios should be optimised according to the corresponding economic, social or ...
