- Privatization, Foreign Bank Entry and Bank Efficiency: A Fourier-Flexible Function Stochastic Cost Frontier Analysis
- This paper estimates a Fourier-flexible frontier cost function. Specification tests indicate that the stochastic frontier model with a Fourier- flexible form with a truncated normal distribution of the inefficiency term allowing for time varying technical efficiency is preferred. The results show that new private and privatized banks, contrary to some...

- Pricing Catastrophe Insurance Derivatives
- This paper investigates the valuation of catastrophe insurance derivatives that are traded at the Chicago Board of Trade. By modelling the underlying index as compound Poisson process, the paper gives a representation of no-arbitrage price processes using Fourier analysis. This characterization enables us to derive inverse Fourier transform of prices...
