We infer a term structure of interbank risk from spreads between rates on interest rate swaps indexed to the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) and overnight indexed swaps. We develop a tractable model of interbank risk to decompose the term structure i ...
Are some banks prone to perform poorly during crises? If yes, why? In this paper, we show that a bank's stock return performance during the 1998 crisis predicts its stock return performance and probability of failure during the recent financial crisis. Thi ...
Working capital restrictions can have disruptive effects on the coordination of the operations and finances of a company. Working capital restrictions may limit the inventory ordering power, reduce revenues, and increase the use of high premium debt. It ma ...

Implementation of intelligent and bio-inspired algorithms in industrial and real applications is arduous, time consuming and costly; in addition, many aspects of system from high level behavior of algorithm to energy consumption of targeted system must be ...
In this paper, we build on a single product, finite horizon, periodic review inventory management setting and include key financial aspects such as working capital constraints, payment delays and multiple sources of financing. We numerically solve for the ...
