Information asymmetry around operational risk announcements
Operational risk incidences are likely to increase the degree of information asymmetry between firms and investors. We analyze operational risk disclosures by US financial firms during 1995–2009 and their impact on different measures of information asymmetry in the firms’ equity markets. Effective spreads and the price impact of trades are shown to increase around the first announcements of suc...
متن کاملAnticipating Uncertainty: Straddles Around Earnings Announcements
On average, straddles on individual stocks earn significantly negative returns: daily holding period return is -0.19% and weekly holding period return is -2.09%. In sharp contrast, straddle returns are significantly positive around earnings announcements: average at-the-money straddle returns from one day before earnings announcement to the earnings announcement date yields a highly significant...
متن کاملThe Impact of Conservatism in Risk Disclosure on Investment Efficiency considering Information Asymmetry
In firms with conservative risk disclosure more validity is needed to disclose good risk news and a lower standard of validity is needed to disclose bad risk news. Conservatism in risk disclosure(CRD) as a regulatory mechanism can be effective in reducing the investment inefficiency. The aim of this research is to investigate the effect of CRD on investment efficiency. The research period from ...
متن کاملInformation Asymmetry and Risk Transfer Markets
We provide a tractable model of counterparty risk in an intermediated risk transfer market, and analyze the consequences of this risk being private information. We show that unknown type information can be revealed when large trades are observable; however, the allocation is shown to be constrained inefficient. The inefficiency is highlighted by considering the imposition of a transaction tax, ...
متن کاملAsymmetry of Risk and Value of Information
The von Neumann and Morgenstern theory postulates that rational choice under uncertainty is equivalent to maximization of expected utility (EU). This view is mathematically appealing and natural because of the affine structure of the space of probability measures. Behavioural economists and psychologists, on the other hand, have demonstrated that humans consistently violate the EU postulate by ...
