The issuance of asset securitization has been subject to a substantial debate by financial regulators and practitioners post the crisis 2008. This study examines impact securitizations on performance stability banks in dual banking system (Islamic conventional). Using unique sample international located 21 countries, our results provide strong evidence that involved are generally riskier less f...

This commentary describes the CPI targeting regime implemented by the Swedish Riksbank during the 1930. This episode is revisited because some people believe that it would be infeasible for a central bank to target a price index successfully. A review of this episode shows that the Riksbank did not face any technical problems in achieving a stable CPI. JEL Codes: E52, E58, N14 Citation: Black, ...

In this paper, we propose the novel application of a technique for filter design that can accurately fit measured tuning curves for the auditory fibres in the log-magnitude domain. This method provides pole-zero filters with guaranteed stability, and its logmagnitude domain criterion allows tuning curves with very steep slopes to be accurately modelled with an 8 to 10 order polezero filter. Thu...

This paper discusses the dynamic performance and the modeling of a DSTATCOM with Capacitor Bank (CB) and Ultra Capacitor Energy Storage (UCES) considering their equivalent series resistance for improving the operation of power quality in power distribution system. The proposed integrated DSTATCOM system is studied for riding through voltage sags and dynamically controlling active power independ...

This study attempted to investigate the level of Bank efficiency in Ghana by using Data Envelope Analysis (DEA). The study revealed that bank efficiency in Ghana has improved after the introduction of financial sector reforms in 1988 which have led to more competitions among banks, increased financial innovation, strict regulatory regime and higher profitability. The operational, technical and ...

A robust entry guidance law without drag rate measurement is designed for drag-tracking in this paper. The bank angle is regarded as the control variable. First, a state feedback guidance law (bank angle magnitude) that requires the drag and its rate as feedback information is designed to make the drag-tracking error be input-to-state stable (ISS) with respect to uncertainties. Then a high gain...
