Exclusion of US-holders in cross-border takeover bids and the principle of equality in tender offers
Creators: name: MUCCIARELLI, Federico Maria
Publisher: name: Dipartimento di Economia Marco Biagi - Universit� di Modena e Reggio Emilia
Year: 2009

description: To avoid the cumulative application of takeover regulation of more jurisdictions, it is common practice to exclude from the offer shareholders resident in countries adopting extraterritorial conflict rules. Among such countries, the most significant case is that of US securities regulation: according to US case-law, in order to avoid the application of US takeover regulation and anti-fraud provisions, bidders should completely exclude any publicity of the offer in the US or to US resident and consider acceptances from US residents as void. However, such restrictions could be at odds with the principle of equal treatments of target?s shareholders, provided for by the EU Takeover Directive. In the paper, I argue that only restrictions to dissemination could be reconciled with the equality principle. On the contrary, restrictions to acceptance represent a clear violation of such principle, which can be admitted only if the cumulative application of US law would make the offer unfeasible.

description: In this paper we use the Diebold Yilmaz (2009 and 2012) methodology to estimate the contribution and the vulnerability to systemic risk of volatility risk premia for five European stock markets: France, Germany, UK, Switzerland and the Netherlands. The volatility risk premium, which is a proxy of risk aversion, is measured by the difference between the implied volatility and expected realized volatility of the stock market for next month. While Diebold and Yilmaz focus is on the forecast error variance decomposition of stock returns or range based volatilities employing a stationary VAR in levels, we account for the (locally) long memory stationary properties of the levels of volatility risk premia series. Therefore, we estimate and invert a Fractionally Integrated VAR model to compute the cross forecast error variance shares necessary to obtain the index of total and directional connectedness.
Euro area Inflation as a Predictor of National Inflation Rates

description: The stability of inflation differentials is an important condition for the
smooth working of a currency area, such as the European Economic and Monetary
Union. In the presence of stability, changes in national inflation rates, while
holding Euro-area inflation fixed contemporaneously, should be only transitory.
If this is the case, the rate of inflation of the whole area can also be interpreted
as a predictor, at least in the long run, of the different national inflation rates.
However, in this paper we show that this condition is satisfied only for a small
number of countries, including France and Italy. Better convergence results for
inflation differentials are, instead, found for the USA. Some policy implications
are drawn for the Eurozone.
Sensitivity Analysis and Investment Decisions: NPV-Consistency of Rates of Return

description: Investment decisions may be evaluated via several different metrics/criteria, which are functions of a vector of value drivers. The economic significance and the reliability of a metric depend on its consistency with the Net Present Value (NPV), which signals shareholder value creation. Traditionally, a metric is NPV-consistent if it correctly signals value creation. This paper makes use of sensitivity analysis for measuring consistency between rates of return and NPV. In particular, it introduces a new, stronger definition of NPV-consistency that takes into account the influence of value drivers on the metric output. A metric is strongly NPV-consistent if (it signals value creation and) the ranking of the value drivers in terms of impact on the output is the same as that provided by the NPV. We show that IRR is not strongly consistent and that its degree of inconsistency is not negligible via Spearman's (1904) correlation coefficient and Iman and Conover's (1987) top-down coefficient. We introduce a new metric, called straight-line AIRR, belonging to the class of AIRRs (Magni 2010, 2013), which is associated with straight-line capital depreciation. This new metric enjoys strong NPV-consistency under several (possibly all) methods of sensitivity analysis.
Second homes: households' life dream or (wrong) investment?

description: While the purchase of a primary home is mainly motivated by essential consumption needs, buying a second house has been generally considered a good investment decision. However, second homes may results in many different final uses, ranging from holidays and profitable uses to definitely unprofitable ones. We contribute to the scant literature on second houses by exploring the case of second homes that remain unrented and represent the most notable unprofitable use. The empirical investigation relies on the 2002-2012 Bank of Italy Survey on Household Income and Wealth which, among other things, provides plenty of information on real estates, including the actual use. Our results on the unprofitable use of second homes highlight: a gender gap, whereby this case tends to be more clearly associated with male decision makers; no association with household?s economic characteristics; and, strong association with the specific real estate features, with inherited dwellings more likely to end up being unprofitably used. Thus our results, besides casting some doubts on the goodness of second homes as an investment decision, may have important policy implications on the housing and rental market and call for policy or regulatory interventions.

An Anthropological View of how Organisations Think
Creators: name: Bell, Wendy, Dr
Publisher: name: Monash University
Year: 2017
Subjects: Uncategorized

description: Models of rational decision making have been widely used to explain how institutions 'think' or behave, and to train managers to make decisions. As a model, rational decision making has proven remarkably resilient despite increasing evidence in recent years that culture, rather than logic, is central to organisational as well as anthropological study. What will be argued here is that the cultural theories we are accustomed to using in management may need to take into account some of the current anthropological models in order to adequately deal with the complexity of future organisations. Rational decision making itself, has been defined by the British anthropologist, Mary Douglas, as a form of cultural bias, that is, only one of several rational 'ways of seeing' the world. In 1970, Mary Douglas published a two-dimensional typology designed to capture cultural biases and make them visible. It formalised her anthropological experience that cultures could be categorised according to two socio-cultural dimensions; the degree of group pressure which she called Group, and the extent of the social controls exerted upon group members, which she called Grid. In 1990, Michael Thompson, Richard Ellis and Aaron Wildavsky adapted Mary Douglas' Grid/Group schema to propose the existence of five predictable worldviews, or cultural biases, each of which perceives the world quite differently, and are present in any decision point or in any public debate. This paper sets out to apply the above model to management decision making, arguing that as we approach the third millenium, managers will need to harness the energy and engagement of all the competing worldviews which Mary Douglas and her colleagues have suggested comprise organisational and social life. It further suggests that in the future, managers may need to abandon today's one-dimensional or dualist decision making models in favour of a single, multi-dimensional cognitive framework capable of holding co-existing and conflicting points of view in an integrated whole.

description: Modern structural materials utilize tailored microstructures to retain peak performance within the most volatile operating conditions. Features such as grain size, grain boundary (GB) character and morphology and secondary phases are just a few of the tunable parameters. By tailoring these types of microstructural features, the deformation behavior of the material is also altered. The localization of plastic strain directly correlated to material failure. Thus, a systematic approach was utilized to understand the effect of microstructural features on the localization of plastic deformation utilizing digital image correlation (DIC). First, at the macroscopic scale, strain accumulation is known to form parallel to the plane of maximum shear stress. The local deviations in the deformation pathways at the meso-scale are investigated relative to the plane of maximum shear stress. The deviations in the deformation pathways are observed to be a function of the accumulated local plastic strain magnitude and the grain size. Next, strains characterized via DIC were used to calculate a value of incremental slip on the active slip systems and identify cases of slip transmission. The incremental slip was calculated based on a Taylor-Bishop-Hill algorithm, which determined a qualitative assessment of deformation on a given slip system, by satisfying compatibility and identifying the stress state by the principle of virtual work. Inter-connected slip bands, between neighboring grains, were shown to accumulate more incremental slip (and associated strain) relative to slip bands confined to a single grain, where slip transmission did not occur. These results rationalize the role of grain clusters which lead to intense strain accumulation and thus serve as potential sites for fatigue crack initiation. Lastly, at GB interfaces, the effect of GB morphology (planar or serrated) on the cavitation behavior was studied during elevated temperature dwell-fatigue at 700 °C. The resulting γ′ precipitate structures were characterized near GBs and within grains. Along serrated GBs coarsened and elongated γ′ precipitates formed and consequently created adjacent regions that were denuded of γ′ precipitates. Dwell-fatigue experiments were performed at low and high stress amplitudes which varied the amount of imparted strain on the specimens. Additionally, the regions denuded of the γ′ precipitates were observed to localize strain and to be initial sites of cavitation. These results present a quantitative strain analysis between two GB morphologies, which provided the micromechanical rationale for the increased proclivity for serrated GBs to form cavities.

description: The paper presents and discusses the results of a research supported by the European Commission (DG Employment, Social Affairs and Inclusion) concerning the implementation of occupational welfare schemes across Europe by means of social dialogue. Information was collected through the review of secondary sources, a first-hand examination of collective agreements, and in-depth study of companies located in Bulgaria, Estonia, Hungary, Italy, Spain and Sweden. The research adopted a broad conceptualization of occupational welfare, encompassing measures consisting in cash benefits, services or benefits in kind, and changes in work organisation as well. In so doing, the research looks at occupational welfare as a field of intervention that provides new opportunities for social dialogue and collective bargaining to implement juridical-organizational regulations consistent with a high-road approach to competitiveness and thus capable of meeting both the organization requirements for greater competitiveness and the individuals? needs related to the quality of working life and work-life balance. The research results contribute to increasing the knowledge base concerning the implementation of occupational welfare practices in different European industrial relations systems. In all the cases under examination occupational welfare operates at best as a compensation for workers? acceptance of the company requirements for greater flexibility and productivity, rather than as a part of a win-win negotiation strategy aimed at changing the work organization so that to meet jointly the long-term competitive organizational aims and the individuals? needs. In light of that, the paper concludes by highlighting some conditions necessary to direct occupational welfare programmes towards a high-road pathway.

description: Building on the broad and diverse picture of strategic interventions on regions' research and innovation strategies for smart specialisation (RIS3) and on macro-regional strategies, this paper outlines a comparative framework to analyse regions' RIS3 priorities (to outline the intended development path that regions aim at) and socioeconomic conditions (to describe the structural features, as they emerge from Eurostat data). The paper integrates results developed in two companion papers, by Pavone et al. (2018) and by Pagliacci et al. (2018), thus providing a multidimensional perspective on similarity across regions. Identifying which are the similarities is essential in a comparative analysis that aims to measure and monitor the impact of integrated investments on the development of the territory across sectors. Implications of the methodology proposed in the paper are discussed with suggestions for policy makers.

description: Silicon carbide is a useful monolithic and matrix ceramic due to its excellent mechanical properties and corrosion/oxidation resistance at high temperature. This makes it an attractive material for use in advanced applications, such as aircraft engines and high-speed flight. In this study, additively manufactured monolithic SiC and Cf/SiC CMCs, processed via direct ink writing (DIW) of a 53 vol% colloidal suspension, achieved >96% theoretical density through pressureless sintering. When present, fibers are aligned in the direction of the print path. Five different print paths were studied, including a 0o path, 90o path, 0/90o path, 0/15/30/45/60/75/90o path, and 0/30/60/90/60/30/0o path. Four-point bend testing was performed to determine flexural strength and Weibull analysis was performed. Strengths were highest for the 0o print path. The characteristic strength, σo, of this print path was 375 MPa with a Weibull modulus of 7.4 for monolithic SiC and a σo of 361 MPa with a Weibull modulus of 10.7 for Cf/SiC. Weibull modulus was greater for Cf/SiC samples compared to identically printed monolithic SiC samples. SEM and optical microscopy were used to analyze printed parts which showed a high degree of fiber alignment in the direction of the print. Fiber pullout was observed on the fracture surface, as well as intragranular fracture.

description: This paper will focus on the living conditions of disabled people with different degree of limitations as regards to daily activities. In a first step of analysis we focus on the predictors of four specific domains of life satisfaction. In a second step, we attempt to define the different well-being dimensions of disabled people by using the indicators available in the 2011 ISTAT Survey on social inclusion of people with disabilities and by comparing the well-being attainments with respect to the different levels of functional limitations. Given the relevance of social interaction in the life satisfaction of individuals, we focus on this dimension of well-being by analysing the effect of functional limitations on its development, measured by using the observable indicators on the satisfaction of interaction with friends and relatives, the extent of this interaction, and frequency and satisfaction on internet use.

description: In the light of the fundamental role played by small and medium enterprises (SMEs) in the economy of many countries including Italy and of the specific treatment of this issue within the Basel II regulation, the aim of this work is to build a default prediction model for the Italian SMEs. Specifically, we develop a logit model based on financial ratios: using the AIDA database, we focus the attention on a specific region in Italy, Emilia Romagna, where SMEs represent the firms? majority . We find that a parsimonious model based on only four explanatory variables fits well the default data.

Subjects: Other education not elsewhere classified

description: This investigation is a comparative study of the artistic development research of Rhoda Kellogg and the research of Helga Eng, Henry Schaefer-Simmern, and Viktor Lowenfeld. The intent of this investigation is to compare Kellogg’s children’s artistic development research to other theorists of the period to discover similarities and differences in her work, validating its significance. The criteria of the selection of the theorists limit the investigation to the research of children’s artistic development stage theories in the mid-twentieth century. The results of this investigation found that Kellogg’s children’s artistic development research consisted of far more categorizations of marks in the scribble and pre-schema stages than Eng, Schaefer-Simmern, and Lowenfeld’s research. The study also expands on the significance of Kellogg’s children’s artistic development research in the field of art education and the context in which Kellogg undertook her research. This investigation also brought attention to and documented Kellogg’s research more extensively than previous studies.

Comparing redistributive efficiency of tax-benefit systems in Europe
Creators: name: MANTOVANI, Daniela
Publisher: name: Dipartimento di Economia Marco Biagi - Universit� di Modena e Reggio Emilia
Year: 2017

description: In empirical analysis, the Kakwani index is the most frequently used indicator for comparing progressivity across countries and over time. The Kakwani is often assumed to measure to what extent a policy design is targeted to the poor. It has, however, a major drawback: it is not defined for net tax incidence?that is, the whole system of taxes and benefits. Moreover, it is defined over different intervals for different pre-tax income distributions and different average tax rates. This paper proposes an index based on the concept of relative redistributive efficiency that is not affected by these drawbacks. The Redistributive Efficiency index was compared to the Kakwani index for taxes/benefits in EU countries by using Euromod baselines. In addition, the Redistributive Efficiency index was computed on the whole tax-benefit system; that is, taxes and benefits were evaluated together. Only Ireland and the UK combine high levels of redistributive efficiency with a relevant amount of tax revenues and social expenditures. They obviously obtain very high redistribution, above 15 points. Most of the countries considered show an intermediate level of redistribution (between 7 and 12 points), but with a different mix. A group of Central and Northern European countries plus Slovenia and Hungary combine medium levels of redistributive efficiency and medium size, while some Southern European countries (Spain and Portugal) and new members compensate a rather low amount of transfer and taxes with quite high levels of efficiency. The remaining new member states and Southern EU countries show a very low level of redistribution, below 7 points. Interestingly, they vary in the level of tax burden and of resources devoted to benefits but all of them show a poor Redistributive Efficiency. This suggests that low Redistributive Efficiency plays a key role in explaining why certain countries perform a limited amount of redistribution.

Differential Evolution for Multiobjective Portfolio Optimization

description: Financial portfolio optimization is a challenging problem. First, the problem is multiobjective (i.e.: minimize risk and maximize profit) and the objective functions are often multimodal and non smooth (e.g.: value at risk). Second, managers have often to face real-world constraints, which are typically non-linear. Hence, conventional optimization techniques, such as quadratic programming, cannot be used. Stochastic search heuristic can be an attractive alternative. In this paper, we propose a new multiobjective algorithm for portfolio optimization: DEMPO - Differential Evolution for Multiobjective Portfolio Optimization. The main advantage of this new algorithm is its generality, i.e., the ability to tackle a portfolio optimization task as it is, without simplifications. Our empirical results show the capability of our approach of obtaining highly accurate results in very reasonable runtime, in comparison with quadratic programming and another state-of-art search heuristic, the so-called NSGA II

Theoretical Perspectives on EU Constitutional Law
Creators: name: Komárek, Jan
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2024

description: Abstract: This chapter, which will appear in the forthcoming Research Handbook on EU Constitutional Law (edited by Leonard Besselink, Nicola Lupo and Mattias Wendel), provides an overview of the development of EU constitutional theory - the field of scholarly inquiry concerned with the broader and deeper questions of the basic concepts of EU constitutional law, in particular the nature of the EU, its legal order and its various elements. It argues that while claims about the constitutional nature of the European integration project have been made since its early beginnings, a truly original constitutional theory of the EU emerged much later, coinciding with the establishment of the European University Institute and its first major project, Integration through Law, in the late 1970s. The chapter concludes with an overview of the main constitutional theories of the EU today, based on earlier research conducted as part of IMAGINE.

Keywords: EU constitutional theory, intellectual history of EU constitutionalism, integration through law
Community detection of agents interacting through regional innovation policies: structures, processes and functions
Creators: name: RIGHI, RICCARDO
Publisher: name: Dipartimento di Economia Marco Biagi - Universit� di Modena e Reggio Emilia
Year: 2016

description: The detection of communities of agents that interacted over time through regional innovation policies is analyzed through the application of three methodologies: Clique Percolation Method (CPM) by Palla et al. (2005), Infomap by Rosvall and Bergstrom (2008), and Dynamic Cluster Index analysis (DCI) by Villani et al. (2013). In a economic context of analysis centered on such a complex object as innovation, the three methodologies are applied to investigate different specific aspects of community organizations aimed at developing innovative activities. The investigation of relational structures (through CPM), of shared processes (through Infomap) and of integrated behaviors (through DCI analysis) allowed the identification of communities that reveal, respectively, meaningful characterizations in terms of agents? participations in specific waves of the policy, of agents? participations in projects operating in particular technological domains, and in terms of agents? institutional typologies. The case study regards the policy interventions implemented by region Tuscany (Italy) in 2000-2006 with the aim of supporting innovative network projects among local actors.

Asymmetric correlations and hedging effectiveness of cryptocurrencies for the European stock market

description: The aim of the paper is twofold: first, to examine the hedging effectiveness of cryptocurrencies and cryptocurrency portfolios for European equities in bearish and bullish market conditions, and second, to contrast cryptocurrencies with gold as a safe haven asset. To this end, daily data from 2018 to 2021 were employed in a linear and nonlinear Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) framework.
The findings have significant implications for investors, financial intermediaries and regulators. First, none of the cryptocurrencies under investigation acts as a safe haven for the European stock market. Second, an asymmetric relationship was found between Bitcoin / Ethereum returns on the one hand and stock market returns on the other, indicating the risk of large joint losses during periods of market turmoil. Third, cryptocurrency portfolios appear to perform better than Bitcoin and Ethereum for diversification purposes. Fourth, among cryptocurrency portfolios, the portfolio made up of the top ten cryptocurrencies appear to be the best in terms of diversification benefits and the risk-return profile. Finally, during the 2020 bear market conditions, not even gold acted as a safe haven for European stocks, highlighting the need to investigate alternative safe haven assets to mitigate portfolio risks.

description: My art practice research project Frankenstein2; or, The Monster of Main Stream involves using all and only the words from Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein; or, The Modern Prometheus (1831) to create a new contemporary novel and associated collaborative works, facilitated by a customised database software programme, FrankenWriter [FrankenWriter was developed by French robotics artist, Patrick Tresset.] The resulting reconfigurations of Shelley’s words become vehicles to rehearse contemporary political, theoretical and artistic concerns, while creating new dialogical relationships and exploring ideas of the expanded novel and dispersed authorship in the digital age. 

My theoretical research is largely concerned with the transformation of cultural value within neoliberal and computational rationalities, with a focus on self-reflexive methodologies that deploy cultural objects as dispositifs (apparatuses) or lenses through which I analyse and produce the reconfiguration of knowledge. The thesis implicitly and playfully challenges the proposition for newness in cultural research through neologisms such as ‘datocracy’, ‘infomanticism’ and ‘LouisQuatorzisation’ in which fragments of data assume sublime agency and cultural objects play out power relations, thereby representing potent apparatuses for everyman and totalitarian alike. At the core is my construction of a methodology maudite, a promiscuous dispositif that draws from diverse existing and evolving methodologies, theories and paradigms in the production of exorbitant imaginary relationships between fragments of cultural data, illustrated by the key example of Last Tango Inception, an illicit conjoining of two films that would not ordinarily be seen together. As an artist engaged in performative conceptual writing, I am interested in the proposition that methodology, in its ideological maturation of process, might now subsume form and content.
