Household Leverage [PDF]

open access: possibleJournal of Money, Credit and Banking, 2009
I propose a life‐cycle model where a finitely lived risk‐averse household finances its housing investment by opting to provide a down payment. Given that the household may default, risk‐neutral lenders efficiently charge a default premium to hedge against expected losses. This has two major consequences.

On the Convergence of Leveraging

2002
We give an unified convergence analysis of ensemble learning methods including e.g. AdaBoost, Logistic Regression and the Least-Square-Boost algorithm for regression. These methods have in common that they iteratively call a base learning algorithm which returns hypotheses that are then linearly combined.

The leverage effect without leverage

Finance Research Letters, 2009
We use experimental stock markets to add more evidence that Black's [1976. Proceedings of the 1976 Meeting of the Business and Economic Statistics Section. American Statistical Association, pp. 177–181] leverage effect in financial markets does not necessarily stem from the financial leverage of the firm.

ON THE MEASUREMENT OF LEVERAGE

The Journal of Finance, 1966

Thus some define leverage as the ratio of the value of "senior capital" (= debentures + preferred shares) to the value of the equity;' others use the structure of the income statement;2 and yet ...

Liquidity and Leverage

SSRN Electronic Journal, 2009
In a financial system in which balance sheets are continuously marked to market, asset price changes appear immediately as changes in net worth, eliciting responses from financial intermediaries who adjust the size of their balance sheets. We document evidence that marked-to-market leverage is strongly procyclical.

The Cyclicality of Leverage

SSRN Electronic Journal, 2015
This paper studies the question of the economic scale of financial institutions. We show that banks actively smooth book equity by adjusting payouts to achieve a desired trajectory of book equity. The countercyclical nature of net payouts of financial institutions leads to procyclical book leverage, while market leverage is nearly entirely reflective ...

Leveraging Creativity

2013
Creativity describes the ability to rethink existing solutions, to combine existing ones with solutions used in other fields, or to imagine a new way of doing things, and as such, creativity represents the basis of innovation. But in many companies the thinking prevails that not every employee is able to be imaginative and to create something new. This

The Morality of Leverage and the Leverage of Morality

2014
The language of leverage is pervasive. Indeed, it is so pervasive that we can cease to notice when it is used. So, just to illustrate the almost-unconscious use we make of leverage in everyday life, here are just a few samples from my own life in one random week: (1) A student in a seminar describes the work of Boston Healthcare for the Homeless as ...

Leveraging cyberspace

IEEE Communications Magazine, 1996
People with shared interests are using the Internet to solve problems, accomplish tasks, and create resources that would be well beyond the reach of any one person or organization. The Internet is being used to create virtual libraries, factor large numbers, organize massive volunteer efforts, and filter information in a collaborative fashion.
