Enforcing and Trading Patents: Evidence for Europe - Original PDF
Enforcing and Trading Patents: Evidence for Europe - Original PDF
نویسندگان: Fabian Gäßler (auth.) خلاصه: Applying novel datasets, Fabian Gäßler analyzes how key aspects of the current patent system in Europe and Germany, respectively, affect patent enforcement and patent trade. In particular, he shows what factors determine court selection in patent litigation and how the jurisdictional separation of validity and infringement questions favors the patent holder. The author further provides empirical evidence for the market for patents in Europe. The presented findings yield important implications for the ongoing debate on the optimal design of patent systems.

The European Emission Trading System and Its Followers: Comparative Analysis and Linking Perspectives - Original PDF
نویسندگان: Simone Borghesi, Massimiliano Montini, Alessandra Barreca (auth.) خلاصه: Given the rapid spread of ETSs in an increasing number of countries and the important role that they are likely to play for the success or failure of the environmental policy in the years to come, this book provides an interdisciplinary analysis of the EU ETS from both the legal and economic perspectives comparing it with the other main ETSs existing worldwide, in order to assess whether the EU ETS has truly represented a prototype for the other ETSs established around the world and to investigate the current perspectives for linking them in the future.Through the years, the EU ETS has progressively gained a paramount position within the EU environmental policy and climate change legislation and currently represents the most striking flagship in this sector, with more than 11.000 installations covered by the scheme. In parallel, the EU ETS has paved the way for the establishment of many other ETSs in several other jurisdictions. Such schemes are now recognized worldwide as the “cornerstones” of the climate change policy.

Trading on sentiment : the power of minds over markets - Original PDF
نویسندگان: Peterson, Richard L خلاصه: his book is based on a simple claim: There are patterns in market prices. While that assertion is controversial among academics, belief in that notion is a prerequisite to work in the investment industry. Investors who propose to beat the market attempt to harvest some mispricing, somewhere, often systematically. This book covers broad scientific and experimental ground as it makes the case that not only do price patterns exist, but the most predictable pat- terns are rooted in the anatomy of the human brain and the biology of its information processing networks. Some information provokes emotional reactions—as we describe in subsequent chapters—and these reactions predictably alter trading behav- ior. In this book the term sentiment refers to emotions, feelings, outlooks, Trim Size: 6in x 9in Peterson fpref.tex V2 - 02/19/2016 8:51pm Page xix  Preface xix attitudes, and beliefs. Sometimes investors reveal their sentiment through their statements in news and social media, and those statements become the predictive information of interest. Sentiments alter collective behavior, leading to patterns in prices. This book is organized into five parts. Part One explores the foundations of investor behavior. Investor sentiment has been found predictive of market price action based on humans’ innate information processing networks and specific characteristics of information. Part Two examines short-term price patterns that result from both news and social media. Part Three lays out the longer-term price patterns associated with sentiment, including momen- tum and value enhancements with sentiment. Part Four describes complex price patterns such as speculative bubbles and patterns in commodities and currencies. Part Five turns its attention to individual investor psychology, sharing tools to help investors avoid the biases whose effects on collective trading behavior cause the price patterns examined in this book.

Handbook of High-Frequency Trading and Modeling in Finance - Original PDF
نویسندگان: Ionut Florescu, Maria C. Mariani, H. Eugene Stanley, Frederi G. Viens (eds.) خلاصه: Reflecting the fast pace and ever-evolving nature of the financial industry, the Handbook of High-Frequency Trading and Modeling in Finance details how high-frequency analysis presents new systematic approaches to implementing quantitative activities with high-frequency financial data. Introducing new and established mathematical foundations necessary to analyze realistic market models and scenarios, the handbook begins with a presentation of the dynamics and complexity of futures and derivatives markets as well as a portfolio optimization problem using quantum computers. Subsequently, the handbook addresses estimating complex model parameters using high-frequency data. Finally, the handbook focuses on the links between models used in financial markets and models used in other research areas such as geophysics, fossil records, and earthquake studies. The Handbook of High-Frequency Trading and Modeling in Finance also features: • Contributions by well-known experts within the academic, industrial, and regulatory fields • A well-structured outline on the various data analysis methodologies used to identify new trading opportunities • Newly emerging quantitative tools that address growing concerns relating to high-frequency data such as stochastic volatility and volatility tracking; stochastic jump processes for limit-order books and broader market indicators; and options markets • Practical applications using real-world data to help readers better understand the presented material The Handbook of High-Frequency Trading and Modeling in Finance is an excellent reference for professionals in the fields of business, applied statistics, econometrics, and financial engineering. The handbook is also a good supplement for graduate and MBA-level courses on quantitative finance, volatility, and financial econometrics.

Worlds Apart Trading Together: The organisation of long-distance trade between Rome and India in Antiquity - Original PDF
Worlds Apart Trading Together: The organisation of long-distance trade between Rome and India in Antiquity - Original PDF
نویسندگان: Kasper Grønlund Evers خلاصه: Worlds Apart Trading Together sets out to replace the outdated notion of ‘Indo-Roman trade’ with a more informed perspective integrating the new findings of the last 30 years. In order to accomplish this, a perspective focusing on concrete demand from the ground up is adopted, also shedding light on the role of the market in long-distance exchange. Accordingly, the analysis conducted demonstrates that an economically highly substantial trade took place between the Mediterranean and the Indian Ocean in the 1st–6th cen. CE, altering patterns of consumption and modes of production in both India, South Arabia and the Roman Empire. Significantly, it can be documented that this trade was organised at the centres of demand and supply, in Rome and India, respectively, by comparable urban associations, the transport in-between being handled by equally well-organised private networks and diasporas of seagoing merchants. Consequently, this study concludes that the institution of the market in Antiquity was able to facilitate trade over very long distances, acting on a scale which had a characteristic impact on the economies of the societies involved, their economic structures converging by adapting to trade and the market.
The Multilateral Trading System and Human Rights: A Governance Space Theory on Linkages - Original PDF
The Multilateral Trading System and Human Rights: A Governance Space Theory on Linkages - Original PDF
نویسندگان: Mihir Kanade خلاصه: This book contributes an original theory to understanding human rights and international trade. It offers the ‘governance space’ framework for analysing the linkages and normative relationships between the multilateral trading system (MTS) and human rights regimes. Drawing upon key case studies, the author identifies connecting strands as also gaps in linkage issues. He further examines the ‘right to development’ approach to resolve tensions between these two regimes and demonstrates how the approach may be the most appropriate road map to finding sustainable solutions in balancing human rights and equitable free trade in a complex globalised world. Presenting new legal analyses informed by current debates drawn from international organisations – the World Trade Organization, United Nations, International Labour Organization – governments, civil society and academia as well as global commitments such as the Sustainable Development Goals, the book proposes a systematic and holistic policy intervention. This timely and transdisciplinary text will be of great interest to academics, students and scholars of human rights, international trade, international law, development studies, public policy and governance, economics, politics and international relations. It will also be useful to policymakers, think-tanks, human rights advocates, professionals, lawyers, civil society organisations, non-governmental organisations and trade experts.

Multi-Period Trading via Convex Optimization - Original PDF
نویسندگان: Stephen Boyd خلاصه: Our investments will be in a universe of n assets, along with an associated cash account. We let ht ∈ Rn+1 denote the portfolio (or vector of positions or holdings) at the beginning of time period t, where (ht)i is the dollar value of asset i at the beginning of time period t, with (ht)i < 0 meaning a short position in asset i, for i = 1, . . . , n. The portfolio is long-only when the asset holdings are all nonnegative, i.e., (ht)i ≥ 0 for i = 1, . . . , n. The value of (ht)n+1 is the cash balance, with (ht)n+1 < 0 meaning that money is owed (or borrowed). The dollar value for the assets is determined using the reference prices pt ∈ Rn +, defined as the average of the bid and ask prices at the beginning of time period t. When (ht)n+1 = 0, the portfolio is fully invested, meaning that we hold (or owe) zero cash, and all our holdings (long and short) are in assets. Total value, exposure, and leverage. The total value (or net asset value, NAV) vt of the portfolio, in dollars, at time t is vt = 1T ht, where 1 is the vector with all entries one. (This is not quite the amount of cash the portfolio would yield on liquidation, due to transaction costs, discussed below.) Throughout this paper we will assume that vt > 0, i.e., the total portfolio value is positive. The vecto

Barometer of fear: an insider's account of rogue trading and the greatest banking scandal in history - Original PDF
نویسندگان: Stenfors, Alexis خلاصه: I had gone to India on holiday, and on the second day (it was 17 February 2009) I made a phone call to my manager at Merrill Lynch, who, as it happened, was also away from the office, telling him I wanted to talk. He said he was in a ski lift in Switzerland, and told me that he would call back in two or three hours. When he did, he initiated a conversation that would become the most difficult of my life. I informed him that my trading books were overvalued and had been so since mid-January. I had hoped that this would only be temporary but the markets had continued to move against me. ‘How much are we talking about?’ he asked. ‘It could be 100 million.’ ‘Why didn’t you tell me?’ ‘I really don’t know,’ I replied. ‘But now I feel ashamed. I want to apologise.’ Having opened the floodgates, the questioning began. I was interrogated about risk, volatility, hedging, 2008, liquidity, the credit crunch, Lehman Brothers, Merrill Lynch, other people’s losses, price movements, my previous boss, Bank of America, bonuses, profits, honesty, 2009, management, pressure, smoothing of profit and loss, exhaustion. Towards the end of our 45-minute conversation he asked: ‘Could this be a momentary lapse of reason?’ ‘Yes,’ I replied. ‘This is obviously very serious,’ he said. ‘It could go all the way up to the FSA.’
