Predicting Credit Rating and Credit Rating Changes: A New Approach
In this paper, we propose a hazard rate model for studying credit rating and credit rating changes. Theoretically the hazard rate model is more appropriate than the previous static models. Yet it is difficult to estimate hazard rate model, especially when the covariates are time-varying. This paper extends the results of Shumway(2001) and shows that a multiple-state hazard rate model can be est...
متن کاملWhat Drives Changes in Carbon Emissions? An Index Decomposition Approach for 40 Countries
This study analyzes carbon emission trends and drivers in 40 major economies using the WIOD database, a harmonized and consistent dataset of input-output table time series accompanied by environmental satellite data. We use logarithmic mean Divisia index decomposition to (1) study trends in global carbon emissions between 1995 and 2009, (2) attribute changes in carbon emissions to either influe...

The analysis suggests that card networks demand higher interchange fees to maximize card issuers’ profits as card payments become more efficient. At equi...
متن کاملCredit Rating Changes, Information Acquisition and Stock Price Informativeness
How do rating changes affect investor behavior and price informativeness? In a model with endogenous information acquisition and investors with limited attention, we show that the returns to information and the informativeness of the price system increase after a downgrade, but should not experience a significant change after an upgrade. Using a sample of U.S. publicly traded firms that experie...
