Behavioral Charity: Third‐Party Ratings of Nonprofits as Salience and Heuristics
ABSTRACT Financial disclosure through tax returns is the primary regulatory mechanism for holding nonprofits accountable to donors in the USA. The assumption that donors will make rational decisions using disclosed information when giving to nonprofits is central to this regulation. But what if they rely on mental shortcuts instead? This study examines

Transfer Learning Under Group‐Label Shift: A Semiparametric Exponential Tilting Approach
ABSTRACT This article studies unsupervised transfer learning for a binary outcome, with labeled source data and unlabeled target covariates. The setting is motivated by cases where standard covariate‐shift and label‐shift assumptions are inadequate: group‐ or environment‐related features may vary jointly with the label across populations, while the ...

Modeling Downside Risks for China's Security Markets: Does Greenness Make Bonds a Safer Haven?
ABSTRACT Motivated by its current defective governance regime and institutional characteristics of green finance, this study models Value‐at‐Risk and Expected Shortfall of security markets for China. We extend Patton et al.'s (2019) models by introducing four exogenous risk factors including China's climate policy uncertainty (CCPU).
