摘要：
we develop a utility-based model to estimate the adjusted willingness to pay (wtp) for long-term care insurances (ltci) considering ltci has a health effect on the insured. to evaluate the role that health effect of ltci may play in evaluating ltc, we first calibrate the health dynamics to obtain ltci-dependent health transition matrix. then we develop a utility-based model and use backward induction to calculate the adjusted wtp incorporating health effect and decompose this wtp into two parts, namely the risk pooling part originating from consumption smoothing effect and risk mitigation part originating from health effect. based on this adjusted wtp, we discuss different ltci policy designs regarding to eligibility criteria and reimbursement methods. the findings suggest that wtp for ltci exhibits an inverted u shape as wealth increases. moreover, considering the health effect, wtp for all wealth groups is increased. when the investigating the preferences for four different ltci pro-grams, we find the poorer prefer ltci that only covers severe disabilities and pays in cash, while the wealthier prefer ltci that covers both moderate and severe disabilities and pays in-kind. our estimates provide important policy implications for both evaluating public ltci policy and explaining private ltci demand puzzle.

摘要：
this paper investigates the spillover effects of super factories on local manufacturing sector through agglomeration in developing economies. we use evidence from the largest provider of electronic manufacturing service in the world: foxconn. using its unexpected investment in henan province of china as a quasi-natural experiment, we adopt a geographic difference-in-difference approach that exploits the spatial decay of the agglomeration effects from foxconn factories. we find that the increase in the labor productivity of the regions closer to foxconn factories is larger than those of regions further away. this finding is robust to a battery of validity checks. consistent with the agglomeration spillovers, firm entry and labor costs increase more in regions closer to foxconn factories than further away.

摘要：
we test the role of enterprise risk management (erm) in bolstering investor confidence in a dynamic risk environment. specifically, we examine whether firms' use of an erm program reduces the impact of an external negative risk shock—intra-industry restatement contagion. we hand-collect firms' erm status and measure contagion risk using the change in industry peers' option-implied volatility skewness around restatement filing dates. we find that erm mitigates restatement contagion risk. consistent with information benefits, erm's effect on contagion is larger among peers with larger bid/ask spreads or analyst forecast dispersion, lower institutional ownership, and higher idiosyncratic volatility. consistent with real benefits, erm firms are less likely to engage in a material misstatement or overinvestment when another firm in their industry misstates earnings. overall, we find that investors perceive erm as a valuable tool to protect firms against downside risk and the perception is supported by firms' real underlying risk reduction.

摘要：
in this paper, we analyze regressions with observations collected at small time intervals over a long period of time. for the formal asymptotic analysis, we assume that samples are obtained from continuous time stochastic processes, and let the sampling interval δ shrink down to zero and the sample span t increase up to infinity. in this setup, we show that the standard wald statistic diverges to infinity and the regression becomes spurious as long as δ → 0 sufficiently fast relative to t → ∞. such a phenomenon is indeed what is frequently observed in practice for the type of regressions considered in the paper. in contrast, our asymptotic theory predicts that the spuriousness disappears if we use the robust version of the wald test with an appropriate long-run variance estimate. this is supported, strongly and unambiguously, by our empirical illustration.
