Predicting Sovereign Default
With the financial crises ongoing in Greece and Venezuela, sovereign debt crises have become more and more prominent in the public eye.

We collected publicly available data in order to train models to predict, given a nation’s economic status in one year, whether they would be in a debt crisis the next...
متن کاملOptimal sovereign default
When is it optimal for a government to default on its legal repayment obligations? We answer this question for a small open economy with domestic production risk in which contracting frictions make it optimal for the government to finance itself by issuing non-contingent debt. We show that Ramsey optimal policies occasionally deviate from the legal repayment obligation and repay debt only parti...
متن کاملSovereign default: which shocks matter?
This paper analyses a small open economy that wants to borrow from abroad, cannot commit to repay debt but faces costs if it decides to default. The model generates analytical expressions for the impact of shocks on the incentive compatible level of debt. Debt reduction generated by severe output shocks is no more than a couple of percentage points. In contrast, shocks to world interest rates c...
متن کاملRecent Developments in Copula Models
Copula models have become very popular and well studied among the scientific community. Now, most academic researchers, engineers, modelers, etc, own at least some basic copula toolkit and are able to apply it in real situations. Based on the famous Sklar’s theorem (Sklar 1959), copulas allow to put in place the fruitful idea of splitting the specification of a multivariate model into two parts...
متن کاملPhytoestrogens: recent developments
Phytoestrogens are polyphenolic non-steroidal plant compounds with estrogen like activity exerted through estrogen receptors. These receptors are distributed in several tissues such as male and female reproductive systems, bones, cardiovascular and central nervous systems. These natural phenolic compounds include isoflavonoids, flavonoids, lignans and stilbenes. Isoflavonoids are the most studi...
