A note on the application of integrals involving cyclic products kernels

A l'estadística de processos estocàstics i camps aleatoris, una funció de moments o un cumulant d'un estimador de la funció de correlació o de la densitat espectral sovint pot contenir una integral amb un producte cíclic de nuclis. En aquest treball es defineix i s'investiga aquesta classe d'integrals i es demostra la desigualtat de Young-Hölder que permet estudiar el comportament asimptòtic de les esmentades integrals en la situació quan els nuclis depenen d'un pàràmetre. Es considera una aplicació al problema d'estimació de la funció de resposta en un sistema de Volterra.

Investor protection, risk sharing and inequality

This paper studies the relationship between investor protection, financial risk sharing and income inequality. In the presence of market frictions, better protection makes investors more willing to take on entrepreneurial risk while lending to firms. This implies lower cost of external finance and better risk sharing between financiers and entrepreneurs. Investor protection, by boosting the market for risk sharing plays the twofold role of encouraging agents to undertake risky enterprises and providing them with insurance. By increasing the number of risky projects, it raises income inequality. By extending insurance to more agents, it reduces it. As a result, the relationship between the size of the market for risk sharing and income inequality is hump-shaped. Empirical evidence from a cross-section of sixty-eight countries, and a panel of fifty countries over the period 1976-2000, supports the predictions of the model.
