In this video, Wael Rouatbi presents his paper entitled “The role of multiple large shareholders in the choice of debt source”, co-authored with Sabri Boubaker and Walid Saffar, and published in Financial Management in 2017. Using a large sample of French listed companies, this study shows that companies with multiple controlling shareholders tend to resort to bank debt financing. The paper also shows that this effect is more important in companies where agency problems between controlling and minority shareholders are more severe.

Social financial institutions aim to finance social projects. Examples of such institutions include foundations, microfinance institutions, crowdfunding platforms, credit cooperatives, and social or ethical banks. Their operating methods are highly diverse: foundations make donations, while social banks provide loans. Social financial institutions make their investment and financing decisions based on social, environmental, and economic criteria.

Description of the concept of CSR Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) emerged from reflections aimed at questioning the role and mission of companies in society, as well as the responsibilities they bear. This concept appeared during the Second Industrial Revolution in the United States, as a way to examine the practices of large corporations concentrating capital, tools, and human resources.

To understand the term “Sustainable Finance,” we need to look at the two words that make it up. The word “finance” refers to any activity related to money, which serves as a medium of exchange and a store of value. These activities can include financing and investing across different fields such as corporate finance, market finance, public finance, and personal finance. As for the word “sustainable,” it simply means something that lasts over time. Therefore, the term “Sustainable Finance” refers to financial activities that aim to promote sustainability across the four areas of finance. This sustainability can be social and/or environmental.

La valeur perçue du produit décrit l'évaluation globale d'un produit par les consommateurs. Elle prend en compte la mesure dans laquelle un produit répond aux besoins et aux attentes d'un consommateur. Elle prend en compte la mesure dans laquelle un produit répond aux besoins et aux attentes d'un consommateur. La perception de la valeur d'un produit peut être considérée comme un compromis entre la qualité et le prix. Toutefois, des définitions plus nuancées tiennent compte de la nature complexe de la valeur perçue des produits et font référence à ses dimensions : émotionnelle (sentiments générés), sociale (amélioration de l'image sociale de soi), qualité/performance (attentes en matière de qualité et de performance) et prix/valeur de l'argent (utilité et coût du produit).

An Initial Coin Offering (ICO) is a modern fundraising method for start-ups, similar to crowdfunding but using digital tokens instead of traditional cash or rewards. Investors purchase these tokens, which they can later use to buy the product or resell for potential profit. ICOs provide entrepreneurs with a global financing opportunity while offering investors early access to innovative projects. Overall, ICOs connect entrepreneurship, finance, and blockchain technology, making them a revolutionary tool for start-up funding.

The goal of this study is to examine how environmental taxes influence the comparative advantage in environmental products and carbon emissions within emerging economies. To gain a better understanding, we examine whether this impact changes depending on the level of government integrity. The results indicate that increased environmental taxes mitigate the comparative advantage in environmental goods for emerging markets. However, for countries with high levels of government integrity, higher environmental taxes enhance their competitive edge in environmental goods. Additionally, our findings show that although a rise in environmental taxes is associated with higher carbon emissions, raising such taxes results in a reduction in carbon emissions for emerging economies with solid government integrity. These findings suggest that robust political institutions are crucial in promoting the comparative advantage of emerging markets in environmental goods and mitigating climate change. In the absence of substantial confidence in political or governmental institutions, the efficient implementation of climate taxes poses considerable challenges. Furthermore, we observe that an increase in the comparative advantage of environmental goods results in a decrease in carbon emissions.

Recently, ensemble-based machine learning models have been widely adopted and have demonstrated their effectiveness in bankruptcy prediction. However, these algorithms often function as black boxes, making it difficult to understand how they generate forecasts. This lack of transparency has led to growing interest in interpretability methods within artificial intelligence research. In this paper, we assess the predictive performance of Random Forest, LightGBM, XGBoost, and NGBoost (Natural Gradient Boosting for probabilistic prediction) on French firms across various industries, with a forecasting horizon of one to five years. We then apply Shapley Additive Explanations (SHAP), a model-agnostic interpretability technique, to explain XGBoost, one of the best-performing models in our study. SHAP highlights the contribution of each feature to the model’s predictions, enabling a clearer understanding of how financial and macroeconomic factors influence bankruptcy risk. Moreover, it allows for the explanation of individual predictions, making black-box models more applicable in credit risk management.

We experimentally investigate whether and how the potential presence of algorithmic trading (AT) in human-only asset markets can influence humans’ price forecasts, trading activities and price dynamics. Two trading strategies commonly employed by high-frequency traders, spoofing (SP) – associated with market manipulation – and market making (MM) – seen as liquidity provision – are considered.
