The present paper deals with creation of a model which estimates the negative impact of an unexpected factor on an enterprise information system recovery process, which is planned by the Business Continuity Management teams, towards a system outage caused by another foreseen crisis event. The core hypothesis of the contribution is the simultaneous occurrence of an unexpected factor during the i...

The present paper develops a simultaneous multi-factor model for defaults and recoveries. Applying this model, risk parameters can be forecast using systematic and idiosyncratic risk factors and their implied correlations. The theoretical framework is accompanied by an empirical analysis in which a negative correlation between defaults and recoveries over the business cycle is observed. In the ...

Methods: Blood samples from thirty eight participants in a stress treatment project were analyzed for BDNF in plasma before and after 3 months treatment. Symptom levels were assessed by SCL92, work ability index and a question on stress. Physiological and behavioral measures were collected, all at baselin...

We document empirically the determinants of the observed recovery rates on defaulted securities in the United States over the period 1982–1999. The recovery rates are measured using the prices of defaulted securities at the time of default and at the time of emergence from default or from bankruptcy. In addition to seniority and security of the defaulted securities, industry conditions at the t...

Impairments of lung functionality as long-term effects of cigarette smoking have been well established. To our knowledge, no study on acute recovery patterns in any important lung function index after smoking a very limited number of cigarettes has ever been reported. The present study reports recovery patterns of lung transfer factor (TF) and related parameters in smokers and non-smokers who s...
