I exploit a natural experiment in South Korea to examine the real effects of macroprudential foreign exchange (FX) regulations designed reduce risk-taking by financial intermediaries. By using crossbank variation regulation's tightness, show that it causes reduction supply FX derivatives (FXD) and results substantial decline exports for firms were heavily relying on FXD hedging. offer mechanism...

Abstract We investigate the information contained in foreign exchange (FX) volume using a novel data set from over-the-counter market. find helps predict next-day currency returns and is economically valuable for investors. Predictability implies stronger return reversal pairs with abnormally low driven by component of unrelated to volatility, liquidity, order flow. rationalize these findings v...

This work studies the information content of trades in world’s largest over-the-counter (OTC) market, foreign exchange (FX) market. It analyzes a novel, comprehensive order flow data set, distinguishing among different groups market participants and covering large cross-section currency pairs. We find compelling evidence heterogeneous superior across agents, time, pairs, consistent with asymmet...

We investigate the statistical properties of the foreign exchange (FX) network at different time scales by two approaches, namely the methods of detrended cross-correlation coefficient (DCCA coefficient) and minimum spanning tree (MST). The daily FX rates of 44 major currencies in the period of 2007–2012 are chosen as the empirical data. Based on the analysis of statistical properties of cross-...

and Applied Analysis 3 Definition 1.11 see 4 . Let f and g be two self-mappings from a G-metric space X,G into itself. Then the mappings f and g are said to be weakly compatible if G fgx, gfx, gfx 0 whenever G fx, gx, gx 0. Proposition 1.12 see 1 . Let X,G be a G-metric space. Then, for all x, y, z, a in X, it follows that i if G x, x, y 0, then x y z; ii G x, y, z ≤ G x, x, y G x, x, z ; iii G...

BACKGROUND Back pain due to Lumbar Disc Disease is a major clinical problem. The treatment options range from physiotherapy to fusion surgery. A number of minimally invasive procedures have also been developed in the recent past for its management. Disc-FX is a new minimally invasive technique that combines percutaneous discectomy, nuclear ablation and annular modification. Literature on its ro...

Background Human peripheral blood neutrophils contribute to the first line of defence in the immune system and are critical for maintaining health and immunity against opportunistic infections. Neutrophils and their granule-derived mediators are frequently found elevated in patient samples in viral infections, asthma exacerbations, and other respiratory ailments. COLD-FX has been shown to reduc...

Recent evidence supports a role for vitamin K-dependent coagulation zymogens in adenovirus serotype 5 (Ad5, subgroup C) infection of hepatocytes. Here, we assessed the effect of virus-zymogen interaction on cellular transduction using a panel of fiber (f)-pseudotyped viruses derived from subgroup D (f47, f33, f24, f45, f17, f30). Each virus directly bound factor X (FX) as determined by surface ...
