Debt and Deficit Fluctuations and the Structure of Bond Markets [PDF]
We analyse the implications of optimal taxation for the stochastic behaviour of debt. We show that when a government pursues an optimal fiscal policy under complete markets, the value of debt has the same or less persistence than other variables in the ...

Green Talk, Costly Walk: The Financial Cost of Greenwashing
ABSTRACT This study investigates the financial consequences of greenwashing, operationalized as the misalignment between ESG disclosure and actual ESG performance. While prior research has explored the reputational and ethical dimensions of greenwashing, its impact on firms' cost of debt remains underexamined.

A Political Economy Theory of Government Debt and Social Security [PDF]
This paper analyzes the determinants of government debt and social security for the old in a closed-economy, overlapping-generation model. Under the probabilistic voting, the model presents (i) an intergenerational link of resource allocation via debt ...

Powering Transparency: Global Drivers of Sustainability Reporting in the Electricity Sector
ABSTRACT We examine the drivers of sustainability reporting quality (QSR), conceptualised along two complementary dimensions, relevance and reliability, to assess how firm‐level attributes and institutional conditions jointly shape disclosure practices in the electricity sector.

Each bank holds cash and a tradable risky asset. Banks choose absolutely continuous trading rates in order to maximize expected terminal equity, with trades subject to transaction costs ...

A Markov approach to credit rating migration conditional on economic states
Abstract We develop a model for credit rating migration that accounts for the impact of economic state fluctuations on default probabilities. The joint process for the economic state and the rating is modelled as a time‐homogeneous Markov chain. While the rating process itself possesses the Markov property only under restrictive conditions, methods ...

Isoperimetric inequalities on slabs with applications to cubes and Gaussian slabs
Abstract We study isoperimetric inequalities on “slabs”, namely weighted Riemannian manifolds obtained as the product of the uniform measure on a finite length interval with a codimension‐one base. As our two main applications, we consider the case when the base is the flat torus R2/2Z2$\mathbb {R}^2 / 2 \mathbb {Z}^2$ and the standard Gaussian measure
