The ABC of the Federal Reserve System
Renowned economist Edwin Kemmerer narrates the inception and history of the Federal Reserve System, while outlining its functions and purposes in the economy of the United States.The Federal Reserve was conceived as an antidote to a succession of financial panics in the late 19th and early 20th century. The great panic of 1907 was, for government legislators weary of the chaos and joblessness brought by such volatility, the final straw. For a time J. P. Morgan, a banking magnate, aggressively plowed funds to stabilize, avert and mitigate the chaos. However a longer term, government-backed solution was needed: in 1913, the Federal Reserve was formally established. Edwin Kemmerer was already influential in academia at the time of the Federal Reserve's creation, and broadly supported the concept of the 'central bank' as a stabilizing force. The order brought to finance by centralization, together with a pegging of the dollar to gold, formed lifelong pillars of the author's economic philosophy. Although the gold standard in particular has since fell from favor, many of the guiding principles in this book stand in modern day economics, and its historical value is undoubted. Together with a comprehensive account of the Federal Reserve, the Appendices of this book contain relevant law of the era. The Federal Reserve Act, together with salient portions of the Farm Loan Act (an early exemplar of the post-Fed system of credit) are included with the author's notes. In all, this book offers readers an in-depth justification and narration of the Fed's creation and early years.
The CAPM with time-varying covariances
Seminar paper from the year 2021 in the subject Economics - Finance, grade: 1,3, University of Hagen (Fakult瓣t f羹r Wirtschaftswissenschaft, Lehrstuhl f羹r Angewandte Statistik), language: English, abstract: The CAPM provides a single state, single factor, general equilibrium theory of the risk-return relation. However, in the 1960s, Mandelbrot (1963) already observed stock returns to have a very peaked distribution with heavy tails and also periods of persistent volatility, which contradicts the CAPM. In response to these observations, the Conditional CAPM (C-CAPM) has been discussed by several authors. In a C-CAPM investors can price an asset or portfolio conditional on the available information at a point in time. This is done by replacing the unconditional by conditional moments of returns. Statistically, processes of "Generalized Autoregressive Conditional Heteroscedasticity" (GARCH) can capture the so called "stylized facts", some observed by Mandelbrot (1963). GARCH models were developed by Engle (1982) and Bollerslev (1986) and try to model time-varying second moments of asset returns. If a GARCH process is assumed for the disturbance term in a C-CAPM, a GARCH-in mean model (GARCH-M) can be estimated, where the conditional variance or covariance impacts the conditional expectation of (excess) returns. The GARCH-M can model time-varying conditional moments, but also time-varying risk premia and the implied beta factor. As for this seminar paper, I mostly follow the comprehensive dissertation "Das CAPM mit zeitabh瓣ngigen Beta-Faktoren" of Linnenbrink (1998) and the paper of Bollerslev et al. (1988). First, the theoretical foundations of the CAPM, the C-CAPM, GARCH processes and the GARCH-M extension are presented. Then, in the empirical part, I estimate a (univariate) GARCH-M representation of the C-CAPM. I compare its performance to a traditional CAPM with a single stock portfolio of an investor (selected stock: Tesla, Inc.).

Estimating the systematic component of credit spreads
Master's Thesis from the year 2022 in the subject Economics - Finance, grade: 1,7, University of Hagen (Fakult瓣t f羹r Wirtschaftswissenschaft, Lehrstuhl f羹r Bank- und Finanzwirtschaft), language: English, abstract: Corporate bond credit spreads are much larger than historical default rates, which leads to an unexplained gap between the default premium component and total credit spread. This gap is referred to as the "credit spread puzzle" in the literature and has driven the discussion of the components of credit spreads in the past decades. The size of each component affects the decision of whether to purchase a particular class of bonds; this underlines its importance in risk management, portfolio management, and valuation. The first goal of the thesis is to provide a comprehensive review of the current state of research on how to decompose credit spreads and estimate their parts. Second, in an empirical study, the systematic risk in current EUR-denominated credit spreads is estimated and compared to the results of Elton et al. (2001). Furthermore, I analyze the regime-dependence of credit spreads for different cross-sections, as systematic risk has proven important in crisis periods. Finally, implications for the calculation of debt beta are derived as in business valuations it is possible to use a debt beta if the debt of the valuation object is subject to a systematic risk that leads to a signifcant risk premium demanded by debt providers. I show that the systematic part of the credit spread for observed EUR-denominated bond spreads from 2009 to 2021 can be assumed higher than in the US bond market, is regime-dependent and would have direct implications on the calculation and relevance of a debt beta for business valuations.
