A unique data set from a large German discount broker gives us the opportunity to analyze the trading behavior of 1,454 investors, making 89,958 transactions in 6,724 warrants on 397 underlyings. In different logit regression, we make use of the facts that investors can speculate on rising and falling prices of the underlying with call and put warrants and that we also have information about the stock portfolios of the investors. We report several facts about the trading behavior of individual investors in warrants that are consistent with the literature on the behavior of individual investors in the stock market. The warrant investors buy calls and sell puts if the price of the underlying has decreased over the past trading days and they sell calls and buy puts if the price of the underlying has increased. That means, the investors follow negative feedback trading strategies in all four trading categories observed. In addition, we find strong evidence for the disposition effect for call as well as put warrants, which is reversed in December. The trading behavior is also influenced if the underlying reaches some exceptionally prices, e.g. highs, lows or the strike price. We show that hedging, as one natural candidate to buy puts, does not play an important role in the market for bank-issued warrants.}, language = {en} } @article{SchmitzWeber2007, author = {Schmitz, Philipp and Weber, Martin}, title = {Buying and selling behavior of individual investors in option-like securities}, pages = {1 -- 36}, year = {2007}, language = {en} } @article{GoedhuysJanzMohnen2014, author = {Goedhuys, Micheline and Janz, Norbert and Mohnen, Pierre}, title = {Knowledge-based productivity in "low-tech" industries: evidence from firms in developing countries}, series = {Industrial and corporate change}, volume = {23}, journal = {Industrial and corporate change}, number = {1}, publisher = {Oxford University Press}, address = {Oxford}, issn = {1464-3650 (E-Journal); 0960-6491 (Print)}, doi = {10.1093/icc/dtt006}, pages = {1 -- 23}, year = {2014}, abstract = {Using firm-level data from five developing countries—Brazil, Ecuador, South Africa, Tanzania, and Bangladesh—and three industries—food processing, textiles, and the garments and leather products—this article examines the importance of various sources of knowledge for explaining productivity and formally tests whether sector- or country-specific characteristics dominate these relationships. Knowledge sources driving productivity appear mainly sector specific. Also differences in the level of development affect the effectiveness of knowledge sources. In the food processing sector, firms with higher educated managers are more productive, and in least-developed countries, additionally those with technology licenses and imported machinery and equipment. In the capital-intensive textiles sector, productivity is higher in firms that conduct R\&D. In the garments and leather products sector, higher education of the managers, licensing, and R\&D raise productivity.}, language = {en} } @article{MoehrenBergmannJanseretal.2024, author = {M{\"o}hren, Felix and Bergmann, Ole and Janser, Frank and Braun, Carsten}, title = {Assessment of structural mechanical effects related to torsional deformations of propellers}, series = {CEAS Aeronautical Journal}, journal = {CEAS Aeronautical Journal}, publisher = {Springer}, address = {Wien}, issn = {1869-5590 (eISSN)}, doi = {10.1007/s13272-024-00737-7}, pages = {22 Seiten}, year = {2024}, abstract = {Lifting propellers are of increasing interest for Advanced Air Mobility. All propellers and rotors are initially twisted beams, showing significant extension-twist coupling and centrifugal twisting. Torsional deformations severely impact aerodynamic performance. This paper presents a novel approach to assess different reasons for torsional deformations. A reduced-order model runs large parameter sweeps with algebraic formulations and numerical solution procedures. Generic beams represent three different propeller types for General Aviation, Commercial Aviation, and Advanced Air Mobility. Simulations include solid and hollow cross-sections made of aluminum, steel, and carbon fiber-reinforced polymer. The investigation shows that centrifugal twisting moments depend on both the elastic and initial twist. The determination of the centrifugal twisting moment solely based on the initial twist suffers from errors exceeding 5\% in some cases. The nonlinear parts of the torsional rigidity do not significantly impact the overall torsional rigidity for the investigated propeller types. The extension-twist coupling related to the initial and elastic twist in combination with tension forces significantly impacts the net cross-sectional torsional loads. While the increase in torsional stiffness due to initial twist contributes to the overall stiffness for General and Commercial Aviation propellers, its contribution to the lift propeller's stiffness is limited. The paper closes with the presentation of approximations for each effect identified as significant. Numerical evaluations are necessary to determine each effect for inhomogeneous cross-sections made of anisotropic material.}, language = {en} } @article{BeckerDelfmannDietrichetal.2016, author = {Becker, J{\"o}rg and Delfmann, Patrick and Dietrich, Hanns-Alexander and Steinhorst, Matthias and Eggert, Mathias}, title = {Business Process Compliance Checking — Applying and Evaluating a Generic Pattern Matching Approach for Conceptual Models in the Financial Sector}, series = {Information Systems Frontiers}, volume = {18}, journal = {Information Systems Frontiers}, number = {2}, publisher = {Springer}, address = {Berlin}, issn = {1572-9419}, doi = {10.1007/s10796-014-9529-y}, pages = {359 -- 405}, year = {2016}, abstract = {Given the strong increase in regulatory requirements for business processes the management of business process compliance becomes a more and more regarded field in IS research. Several methods have been developed to support compliance checking of conceptual models. However, their focus on distinct modeling languages and mostly linear (i.e., predecessor-successor related) compliance rules may hinder widespread adoption and application in practice. Furthermore, hardly any of them has been evaluated in a real-world setting. We address this issue by applying a generic pattern matching approach for conceptual models to business process compliance checking in the financial sector. It consists of a model query language, a search algorithm and a corresponding modelling tool prototype. It is (1) applicable for all graph-based conceptual modeling languages and (2) for different kinds of compliance rules. Furthermore, based on an applicability check, we (3) evaluate the approach in a financial industry project setting against its relevance for decision support of audit and compliance management tasks.}, language = {en} } @article{Weigand1992, author = {Weigand, Christoph}, title = {Economic Machine Adjustment in the Case of Product Screening .E.v.Collani, Ch.
