Title: Banking System Stability. A Cross-Atlantic Perspective
"... A particularly important sector for the stability of financial systems is the banking sector. Banks play a central role in the money creation process and in the payment system. Moreover, bank credit is an important factor in the financing of investment and growth. Faltering banking systems have ..."

IMPLICATIONS OF CLIMATE CHANGE: POSSIBLE IMPACTS ON AQUATIC FOOD PRODUCTION
"... The unimaginable drift of meteorological conditions like temperature, precipitation and wind actions play a crucial role on aquatic food production and its safety. The onset of monsoons, occurrence of extreme climatic events, changes in monsoonal rain patterns and storminess in general are the major ..."

The impacts of climate changes significant, however, with a wide projected range (between 5 million and 170 million additional people at risk of hunger by 2080) strongly depending on assumed socio-economic development. Both capture and culture fishery are main elements
IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON SIGNAL PROCESSING 1 Hidden Relationships: Bayesian Estimation with Partial Knowledge
"... Abstract—We address the problem of Bayesian estimation where the statistical relation between the signal and measure-ments is only partially known. We propose modeling partial Bayesian knowledge by using an auxiliary random vector called instrument. The statistical relations between the instrument a ..."

-case design strategy and is shown to be advantageous in many aspects. We provide a thorough analysis showing in which situations each of the methods is preferable and propose a non-parametric method for approximating the estimators from a set of examples. Finally, we demonstrate our approach in the context

"... Gait variability has been correlated with fall risk in the elderly. Older adults typically display greater variability than young adults, but the cause of this increase is unclear. Slower walking leads to greater variability in young adults, but slow speeds are also typical in older adults. Increase ..."

Do Legal Institutions and Securities Regulation Matter? *
, 2003
"... This paper examines international differences in firms ’ cost of equity capital across 40 countries. We analyze whether the effectiveness of a country’s legal institutions and securities regulation is systematically related to cross-country differences in the cost of equity capital. We employ four d ..."

We find that countries with extensive securities regulation and strong enforcement mechanisms exhibit lower levels of cost of capital than countries with weak legal institutions, even after controlling for various risk
