This study analyzes Indian data from 1970 to 2022 to demonstrate that rising carbon emissions significantly and asymmetrically increase public debt, establishing a unidirectional causal link that underscores the urgent need to integrate climate risks into fiscal policy and debt management strategies.
Using a unique dataset from the Italian Business Angel Network, this study reveals that while individual angel investors prioritize founding teams and solution innovativeness, collective group decisions systematically shift toward defensible, codified criteria like value proposition clarity, often penalizing the most innovative proposals due to the need for peer justifiability.
This paper analyzes 91,756 observations of unlisted Italian firms to demonstrate that while capitalization coefficients are unstable and unidentifiable due to endogeneity, the labor-share coefficient remains robust across diverse estimation methods and functional forms, a stability driven by genuine economic heterogeneity rather than mere accounting identities.
This study analyzes the impact of India's post-2014 defence industrialisation and indigenisation policies on skilled employment, manufacturing output, and economic growth by examining empirical trends in domestic production, capital expenditure, and exports from 2014–15 to 2024–25.
This paper reconciles conflicting literature on the relationship between bank and trade credit by demonstrating that bank indebtedness is complementary to the credit firms extend to customers but substitutive for the credit they receive, a duality explained by a unified theoretical model and revealed through a comprehensive analysis of Italian SMEs that highlights how measurement scaling choices can obscure these distinct margins.
Using an ARDL framework to analyze Nepal's data, this study finds that while renewable energy adoption, urbanization, and economic growth significantly reduce carbon emissions, trade openness increases them, and the results confirm a stable long-run equilibrium with a specific inverted U-shaped Environmental Kuznets Curve pattern.
Using Global Findex 2024 data from 38 lower-middle-income economies, this study reveals that Muslim-majority countries exhibit significantly lower financial inclusion than their non-Muslim counterparts across account ownership, a stronger reliance on bank-only access pathways, and reduced digital enablement among account holders, highlighting the need for ecosystem-specific policy interventions.
This paper proposes a novel valuation framework for cryptocurrency airdrop-linked claims that integrates market risks with project-specific uncertainties—such as eligibility, allocation, vesting, and dilution—by modeling the payoff as a compound contingent claim, thereby offering both a theoretical benchmark and a practical calibration tool demonstrated through the Hyperliquid genesis distribution.
Using a nationwide panel of Japanese municipalities from 2013 to 2023, this study identifies specific population density thresholds that determine whether density growth improves or worsens fiscal rigidity, revealing that the relationship is primarily driven by adjustments in recurrent revenues rather than expenditures.
This study quantifies the substantial and growing macroeconomic welfare burden of six major metabolic diseases across 120 low- and middle-income countries, revealing that these conditions cost 35.74% of total GDP in 2023, with hypertension currently dominating losses but obesity projected to drive the fastest future increase, thereby highlighting urgent needs for integrated prevention and equitable resource allocation.
