We examine whether board representation of bondholders can be an effective market discipline mechanism to reduce bank risk, using a unique dataset combining information on bondholders and boards of directors of European listed banks. Our results show that the influence of bondholder representatives on the bank board significantly reduces bank risk without impacting profitability. The beneficial effect of this market discipline mechanism is stronger when bondholder representatives have regulatory experience, current or long relationships with their affiliated bondholders, and for more complex banks. In contrast, the reducing impact on bank risk is smaller for banks with lower capitalization levels.

Activity Engagement Purchases and Happiness

Cette recherche développe un nouveau cadre conceptuel basé sur l'intention d'utilisation pour classer les achats. Elle dépasse ainsi la dichotomie dominante entre achats matériels et achats expérientiels et ajoute un troisième type d'achat : les achats d'engagement actif, définis comme des achats qui favorisent une activité de consommation soutenue dans la durée. Cette nouvelle typologie est examinée empiriquement afin de comprendre comment les différents types d'achat contribuent au bonheur du consommateur. Les achats d'engagement actif apparaissent comme un type d'achat distinct, conceptuellement et empiriquement, que les consommateurs peuvent facilement classer et mémoriser. Ils génèrent également un bonheur supérieur à celui des achats matériels ou expérientiels, ce qui s'explique par leur capacité à répondre aux besoins de compétences des consommateurs et à faciliter l'expression de leurs valeurs.

Lego Serious Play to promote cohesion in the classroom

A game to foster class cohesion? That's exactly what Nick Ware, director of the Master's in Arts and Culture Management and lecturer at BSB, implemented. Indeed, communication among international students is not always easy, especially at the beginning of a program. Lego Serious Play is a method that, through the use of Lego bricks, encourages non-verbal and metaphorical expression while creating a shared language. It ensures the involvement of every participant, including the more introverted ones. This approach has proven effective in facilitating interaction among students from different linguistic and cultural backgrounds and in strengthening class cohesion.

Consumer-activity identification: identifying antecedents and outcomes

Although consumers rely on their activities to help construct their identity, antecedents and outcomes of consumer-activity identification (CAI) have not been elucidated. This research addresses this gap through the development of a conceptual model that is tested through two studies. Study 1 finds that CAI leads to consumer-brand identification (CBI). Further, CBI mediates the relationship between CAI and brand loyalty. Study 2 expands these findings by understanding the role of brand and activity social benefits as antecedents for CAI and CBI and including a second brand outcome: brand relationship continuance. Taken together, the results indicate that consumers indeed rely on the activities a brand is used within to construct their identity in addition to the brand.

Board Gender Quotas: Can women realistically boost firm performance

L’objectif de notre article est d’étudier l'impact des quotas de genre sur la performance des entreprises. Nous considérons pour cela les lois imposant un quota de genre dans certains pays européens comme une expérience quasi naturelle. Les résultats de notre analyse empirique mettent en évidence que les quotas de genre réduisent le coût des fonds propres à court terme des entreprises, mais diminuent leur Tobin’s Q à long terme, tout en ayant un impact neutre sur leur rentabilité à court terme et à plus long terme. Notre analyse soutient également l'argument selon lequel les responsables politiques peuvent recourir à un dispositif de quotas pour favoriser la parité au sein des conseils d'administration sans générer d'effets négatifs sur la performance à court terme des entreprises.

What is the Initial Coin Offering?

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.

Environmental Tax Policies in Emerging Markets: Does Confidence in Political Institutions Matter?

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.

In Machine Learning We Trust: A Bankruptcy Prediction Application

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.

Algorithmic trading, what if it is just an illusion?

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.
