Estimation of the marginal expected shortfall under asymptotic independence

We study the asymptotic behavior of the marginal expected shortfall when the two random variables are asymptotic independent but positively associated, which is modeled by the so-called tail dependent coefficient. We construct an estimator of the marginal expected shortfall, which is shown to be asymptotically normal. The finite sample performance of the estimator is investigated in a small simulation study. The method is also applied to estimate the expected amount of rainfall at a weather station given that there is a once every 100 years rainfall at another weather station nearby.

区域经济一体化对世界福利及多边贸易体制的影响

随着经济的全球化,在以GATT和WTO为代表的多边贸易自由化不断深化的同时,区域经济一体化组织层出不穷。而区域经济一体化对于世界福利和多边贸易是有利有弊的。因此,在政策制定上要扬长避短,既限制其不利的影响,同时又要积极发挥它的积极作用。     

Diagnostics for dependence within time series extremes

Summary. The analysis of extreme values within a stationary time series entails various assumptions concerning its long- and short-range dependence. We present a range of new diagnostic tools for assessing whether these assumptions are appropriate and for identifying structure within extreme events. These tools are based on tail characteristics of joint survivor functions but can be implemented by using existing estimation methods for extremes of univariate independent and identically distributed variables. Our diagnostic aids are illustrated through theoretical examples, simulation studies and by application to rainfall and exchange rate data. On the basis of these diagnostics we can explain characteristics that are found in the observed extreme events of these series and also gain insight into the properties of events that are more extreme than those observed.     

Towards Enhancement of the Economy of a Thermal Power Generating System through Prediction of Plant Efficiency

The plant ‘Heat Rate’ (HR) is a measure of overall efficiency of a thermal power generating system. It depends on a large number of factors, some of which are non-measurable, while data relating to others are seldom available and recorded. However, coal quality (expressed in terms of ‘effective heat value’ (EHV) as kcal/kg) transpires to be one of the important factors that influences HR values and data on EHV are available in any thermal power generating system. In the present work, we propose a prediction interval of the HR values on the basis of only EHV, keeping in mind that coal quality is one of the important (but not the only) factors that have a pronounced effect on the combustion process and hence on HR. The underlying theory borrows the idea of providing simultaneous confidence interval (SCI) to the coefficients of a p-th p(≥1) order autoregressive model (AR(p)). The theory has been substantiated with the help of real life data from a power utility (after suitable base and scale transformation of the data to maintain the confidentiality of the classified document). Scope for formulating strategies to enhance the economy of a thermal power generating system has also been explored.     

音像业全球化趋势与我国音像业对外经贸策略的创新

在音像业全球化趋势下,尤其是随着加入WTO,我国音像业在对外经贸策略和规章方面存在的诸多问题日益暴露出来。因此,针对我国音像业对外经贸策略的不足,积极对音像业对外经贸策略进行创新,具有重要的理论价值和现实意义。     

Local dependence estimation using semiparametric archimedean copulas

The authors define a new semiparametric Archimedean copula family which has a flexible dependence structure. The generator of the family is a local interpolation of existing generators. It has locally‐defined dependence parameters. The authors present a penalized constrained least‐squares method to estimate and smooth these parameters. They illustrate the flexibility of their dependence model in a bi‐variate survival example.     

归入权问题之研究

通过对归入权行使对象、行使主体、行使范围的论述 ,对《证券法》第 42条的修改提出了相关建议 :归入权行使对象应当扩大 ,行使主体不仅应包括董事会、监事会、股东 ,在一定条件下 ,证监会也可以作为行使主体。在计算归入权的收益上可采取最高卖价减最低买价法予以计算。     

独立董事“独立性”探讨

独立董事制度的引进,原本是寄期望于此新体制能够完善我国上市公司的公司治理结构。但由于种种原因,这项新制度并没有起到预期的效果,独立董事的"独立性"作用没有得到应有的发挥。我国的独立董事制度建设应具有权威性,赋予给独立董事的权利与其承担的义务应相当。独立董事职责重大,在实践中如何保证他们职责的有效行使是我们应重点考虑的问题,也是独立董事制度能否真正有效的关键。     

从分笔交易数据透视中国债券市场流动性

采用分笔交易数据,用相对买卖价差分析我国债券市场流动性,可以得出如下结论:各期限国债流动性差异不大,短期和长期国债流动性相对较好;国债买卖价差最小,可转债累计深度最大;债券市场流动性和波动性特征之间存在紧密的内在联系。
