• The Analysis of Rational Bubbles in Realty Markets |
Abstract:To promote the healthy development of Chinese real asset market,it is very crucial to prevent it from bubbling up.Based on the rationales of rational bubbles,we construct a local RAM equilibrium model and propose the relative conditions for the birth and existence as well as the burst of the rational bubbles.The model provides a simplified and comprehensive explanation on all the effects in forming rational bubbles by the individuals rational expectation,the banks financing and the governments policies.Meanwhile the model is well consistent with several prominent cases of real asset bubbles in the past.Finally,some proposals are put forward in the macroeconomic perspective. |

• Financial Intermediation and Relationship Banking—Study Based on Guangdong Foreign Companys Data |
Abstract:The study finds empirical support to the financial intermediation theories that the longer the banking relationship, the lower the rate on the foreign currency loans. It also finds empirical support to the rate reducing effects of other key factors such as the majority shareholding by the foreign sponsors, provision of third party guarantee. However, the renminbi-denominated loan rate will be reduced as FIEs maintain relationship with more banks. This suggests that banks compete for customers by offering cheaper credits. If competition is the predominant determinant of loan pricing and that such level of competition does not stimulate more innovative and better quality bank services and products as a means of differentiation, the inflexible Renminbi loan pricing will ultimately deteriorate the profitability of the banks and affect the financial health of the banking system. |

• Test On Rational Expectation Hypothesis in Chinese Stock Market |
Abstract:The Rational Expectations hypothesis, initially developed by Muth, has played a critical role in economic and financial studies. But it is still unclear whether this hypothesis is consistent with peoples decision making. The existing empirical results are mixed. In this article, we test the rational expectation hypothesis directly using survey data from Chinese stock market. We also develop a technique to analyze the discrete or limited independent variable models. We find the survey forecasts can be improved significantly with past information. |

• Empirical Study on the Long-Memory Effect in Chinese Stock Market |
Abstract:The long-memory effect in stock market is a hotspot for financial economists. Based On the literatures using classical R/S analysis, this paper has introduced the modified R/S analysis and ARFIMA model and puts forward to study the returns distribution in Chinese stock market. Twenty-two logarithm return rate series including stock price indices and corporate stocks are studied in this investigation. The empirical result makes clear that these series are non-normality with positive skewness, leptokurtosis, fat tails and special autocorrelation and partial autocorrelation structure. But further investigation shows that no evidence of fractal structure is found in the stock indices, so the aggregate market has no long-memory. The results highlight the differences in fractal structure across different companies series, and show that only several have significantly long-memory effect. This conclusion is different from other studies using classical R/S analysis obviously. |

• Study on Interest of Parties to Share Placement &Additional Issue and Policy Recommendations |
Abstract:This report studies the interest of circulating & non-circulating share holders by the two share-issuing ways including share placement and additional issue through theoretical and empirical research. The circulating share holders concern with five parties such as older shareholders participating and not participating in the additional issue, new shareholders participating in the additional issue, circulating share holders participating and not participating in the placement. The authors discover that share placement can better balance the interest of all parties than additional issue in the current securities market of China. Meanwhile, the empirical research shows that the discount rate of placement has a positive correlation with the excess return rate for circulating share holders, while correlation with the growth rate of net asset per share is of insignificance. This conclusion shows that placement with appropriate discount rate can facilitate both the increases of the net assets for non-circulating share holders and the protection of investment returns for the circulating share holders. In view of these results, the authors offer their policy recommendations for encouraging the practice of share placement, placement with higher discount rate, the upgrading of requirements for additional issue, additional issue preferential for older shareholders, etc. |
