Name : Testing the Efficiency of the Treynor Black Model in the Post Global Financial Crisis Era
Author : Dr. Anurag Singh,Vinay Khandelwal,Rishab Gupta
Abstract :
Active portfolio management by the Treynor Black Model (T-B Model) calls for constructing a combined portfolios that is a mix of benchmarked index portfolio, with the mispriced securities selected on the basis of security analysis. This combined portfolio provides greater risk-adjusted returns when compared to the returns of benchmarked market portfolios. The superior risk-adjusted returns of combined portfolios are measured in terms of Sharpe Ratio, Jensen's Alpha and Treynor measure. This paper attempts to test the efficiencies of the T-B Model in context of the Indian capital market, in a post global financial crisis period. 40 securities have been selected on the basis of security analysis belonging to mid-cap funds from the stocks listed on BSE. 15 combined portfolios have been constructed, each consisting of 20 securities randomly selected from 40 covered securities along with BSE Mid Cap fund, which is substituted for benchmarked passive portfolio. The result provides valuable insights to the fund managers, for following active portfolio management proposed by the T-B Model in the context of the Indian capital market, to obtain superior portfolio returns.

Most interventions promoting women's empowerment has identified the economic independence and economic stability as one of the most important dimensions of women empowerment. There are of course other documents which show that the only economic power fails to ensure the process of empowering the women. But this phenomenon would only be a temporary one. There are many studies which deal with the relationship between the economic empowerment of women and their well-being. The economic stability of women determines the level of autonomy the women enjoy in the society and also it protects them from many odds in the real world. Domestic violence is one.

Though, only a few studies have examined the association between government effectiveness and technological innovation. This research is to analyze the empirical link between government effectiveness and technological innovation by using a panel data set of 58 countries for the period 2002 to 2018. For the empirical testing of hypotheses, we utilized the OLS, Panel negative binomial, and panel quantile regression. The empiricalfindings indicate that government effectiveness has a positive and significant impact on national technological innovation across countries. We further conducted various robustness tests to verify the obtained results. In addition, we divided the selected countries into two groups i.e. OECD and Non-OECD. The results from robustness tests and different groups of countries were found to be in line with the baseline results of this study.

The concept of liquidity management by the commercial bank indicates the capability of the bank to finance its commitments as and when it gets due, comprising of investment and lending obligations, withdrawals, and other ensued burdens. The effectiveness and efficiency of the banks are majorly the function of its management of the liquidity. Therefore, for managing the short-term obligations, it is of vital importance for the banks to keep a desired liquidity ratio. The decisive objective is to maintain desired balance between liquidity and profitability. Against this backdrop, a sincere effort is being made in this research paper to study the impact on the profitability owing to the prudent liquidity management by the Indian banking sector. Accordingly, various banks from the board spectrum were selected as per the need of the research study comprising of public sector banks (27), private banks (20) and foreign banks (15). The independent variable includes Credit-Deposit Ratio (CRDR), Investment-Deposit Ratio and Cash-Deposit Ratio (CDR), which indicates the Banks' management of liquidity. On the other hand, for gauging the profitability, Return on Equity (ROE) and Return on Assets (ROA) are taken as proxy. Based on the research, statistically no significant relationship found between the liquidity of all the types of banks operating in India and profitability, factoring in all the variables. In the research, coefficients of the regressors found to be negative are for all the types of banks (Public, Private and Foreign). Nonetheless, the relationship lacks statistical significance.

Name : Assessing the Determinants of Tax Revenue: Empirical Evidence from Pakistan
Author : Abdul Manan,Zubair Nawaz,Waseem Ahmed,Mirza Nouman Ali Talib
Abstract :
Raising tax revenue is a critical question for non-resource-based revenue-generating economies. There are few studies intending to contemplate the relationship of economic and financial variables with tax revenue. In Pakistan, this question has not been addressed by the researchers previously. This study chooses economic and financial factors as exogenous variables and tax revenue as an endogenous variable in the case of Pakistan for the period ranging from 1980 to 2019. The study uses ARDL Bound Testing as it contains the data of the variables that are stationary at the level and first difference. The study finds that financial variables influence tax revenue positively whereas per capita income has an inverse relationship with tax revenue. According to the results of the study, the financial variables, which include bank capital to total asset ratio, bank non-performing loans, and the bank risk premium on lending, relate positively and the economic variables, which include broad money and foreign development assistance, relate positively except per capita income, which gives results otherwise. The results of the study dictate that increasing reliance on indirect taxation results in a negative relationship between tax revenue and national income because its incidence is on the poor. It suggests that established financial institutions, inclusive growth, consolidation of the money market, and a progressive tax system could help the economy generate more rewarding revenue generation activity. Indirect taxation creates disparity and regressive taxation, which hampers economic growth; therefore, it is suggested efficient taxation with more portion of direct taxation by the study.
