Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Using a large sample of non-financial firms from 47 countries, we examine the effect of derivative use on firm risk and value. We control for endogeneity by matching users and non-users on the basis of their propensity to hedge. We also use a new technique to estimate the effect of omitted variable bias on our inferences. We find strong evidence that the use of financial derivatives reduces both total risk and systematic risk. The effect of derivative use on firm value is positive but more sensitive to endogeneity and omitted variable concerns. However, hedging with derivatives is associated with significantly higher value, abnormal returns, and larger profits during the economic down-turn in 2001-2002, suggesting firms are hedging downside risk.

Book excerpt: The appropriateness of rules governing the financial reporting of derivatives securities depends critically on corporations' intended purpose for holding these instruments. Empirically, however, little is known about how these instruments impact firms' risk-exposures. This study examines the role of derivative securities in a sample of firms that begins using derivatives. The results are generally consistent with firms using derivatives for hedging purposes, and not for increasing shareholder risk. Firm risk (measured several ways) declines in the first year of derivative use. The realized risk reduction varies across firms as a function of the expected benefits from hedging and the characteristics of the derivatives position held. Finally, the decision to initiate a derivatives-based risk- management program is positively related to firms' expected benefits from hedging.

Download or read book Financial Derivatives and the Globalization of Risk written by Benjamin Lee and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 2004-09-29 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The market for financial derivatives is far and away the largest and most powerful market in the world, and it is growing exponentially. In 1970 the yearly valuation of financial derivatives was only a few million dollars. By 1980 the sum had swollen to nearly one hundred million dollars. By 1990 it had climbed to almost one hundred billion dollars, and in 2000 it approached one hundred trillion. Created and sustained by a small number of European and American banks, corporations, and hedge funds, the derivatives market has an enormous impact on the economies of nations—particularly poorer nations—because it controls the price of money. Derivatives bought and sold by means of computer keystrokes in London and New York affect the price of food, clothing, and housing in Johannesburg, Kuala Lumpur, and Buenos Aires. Arguing that social theorists concerned with globalization must familiarize themselves with the mechanisms of a world economy based on the rapid circulation of capital, Edward LiPuma and Benjamin Lee offer a concise introduction to financial derivatives. LiPuma and Lee explain how derivatives are essentially wagers—often on the fluctuations of national currencies—based on models that aggregate and price risk. They describe how these financial instruments are changing the face of capitalism, undermining the power of nations and perpetrating a new and less visible form of domination on postcolonial societies. As they ask: How does one know about, let alone demonstrate against, an unlisted, virtual, offshore corporation that operates in an unregulated electronic space using a secret proprietary trading strategy to buy and sell arcane financial instruments? LiPuma and Lee provide a necessary look at the obscure but consequential role of financial derivatives in the global economy.
