Agglomeration bonus schemes are envisioned to incentivize the connectivity of habitat conservation across landowners. Assuming full cooperation among landowners at landscape scale, bulk literature theoretically finds that agglomeration more cost effective in achieving biodiversity than spatially homogenous payments. However, it may be rational for not cooperate all together but, rather, within ...

One of the issues that have gained a lot of attention in recent years is the board gender diversity. Many researchers believe that gender diversity in the board reinforces corporate social responsibility and on the other hand, gender diversity is one of the signs and effects of corporate social responsibility in the board, so there is a mutual relationship between board gender diversity and cor...

This paper investigates the compensation usefulness of accounting variables along several important dimensions (accruals-based vs. cash-flows based, non-return vs. return, and gross vs. net measures), as well as the time series variation of performance measures in CEO bonus plans, using a unique panel of manually collected CEO bonus determinants spanning fiscal years 2006 to 2011. We document t...

We designed a discrete choice experiment to elicit preferences for compensatory benefits among two sets of workers in the dairy sector: immigrants and US college students planning work sector. find that rank as follows (highest lowest): retirement plan, health insurance, milk quality incentive bonus, housing assistance, bonus meat allotment. Immigrant are willing pay more plan insurance than st...

In performing Bayesian analysis of a bonus–malus system (BMS) it is normal to choose a parametric structure, π0(λ), in the insurer’s portfolio. According to Bayesian sensitivity analysis the structure function can be modelled by specifying a class Γ of priors instead of a single prior. In this paper, we examine the ranges of the relativities, i.e. δ = E[λπ(λ|data)]/E[λπ(λ)], π ∈ Γ . We illustra...
