Contingent capital: A tale of two valuations

Journal of Risk and Insurance, EarlyView.
Abstract This study investigates the valuation gap between buyers and sellers of insurers' contingent capital, driven by asymmetric exposures to tax benefits, capital injections, and bankruptcy costs. We develop a novel Twin‐Tree Model with Jumps (TTMJ) that models the insurer's asset value dynamics by incorporating catastrophe risk, insolvency risk ...

Pharmacokinetics of Moxidectin in Bare‐Nosed Wombats (Vombatus ursinus) After Intravenous, Sub‐Cutaneous and Transdermal Administration

Journal of Veterinary Pharmacology and Therapeutics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The anti‐parasitic drug moxidectin is a frontline treatment for sarcoptic mange in bare‐nosed wombats (Vombatus ursinus), a disease causing significant animal welfare issues and instances of local population declines. Despite widespread usage, knowledge of species‐specific pharmacokinetics of moxidectin in bare‐nosed wombats is still limited ...

The Returns to Education: A Reply

Kyklos, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this response to Lee Crawfurd's comment on The Returns to Education: A Meta‐Study, we address his three main criticisms. We contend that estimates based on compulsory schooling laws constitute the most reliable evidence on causal returns to education. We show that our parsimonious approach to correcting for publication bias is preferable to

On the Exact Limiting Distribution of a Volatility Target Index

Mathematical Finance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Assuming a lognormal distribution for the underlying risky asset, we study the limiting distribution of a volatility target index as the rebalancing time step approaches zero. Two limit theorems (a strong law of large numbers and a central limit theorem) are established, and as an application, the exact limiting distribution is derived.

Do State Lotteries Exploit their Lottery Power? Optimal Lotto Pricing With Heterogeneous Players: Evidence from the United Kingdom

Oxford Bulletin of Economics and Statistics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We propose a new model of revenue‐maximising lottery pricing under income‐related heterogeneity and apply it to 13 years of UK National Lottery data. Our pricing rule shows how a state's lottery power is shaped by heterogeneities in lotto demand and the income distribution, and we study its efficiency and distributional implications.
