    Comparison of the effects of earnings management on the financial cost between companies in developed and emerging European countries
    (Wiley Online Library, 2023-07) González Sánchez, Mariano; Segovia San Juan, Ana Isabel; Ibáñez Jiménez, Eva María
    Empirical studies found that earnings management (EM) explains firms’ cost of capital both in companies in emerging and developed countries, but until now, it has not been analyzed whether the effect of EM on the financial cost is different among emerging countries inside or outside an economic area (Eurozone). Our results show that the cost of debt and the idiosyncratic component of the cost of equity are related to discretionary accruals and abnormal values of operating cash-flows, that the emerging country effect is more relevant on the cost of debt, that there is a Eurozone effect that makes discretionary accruals more relevant than abnormal values of operating cash-flow and that firms in emerging countries inside the Eurozone benefit from a lower EM penalty on the cost of debt than firms in other emerging European countries.

    Analyzing disability in socially responsible companies
    (Springer Link, 2017-01-01) Saavedra Robledo, Irene; Segovia San Juan, Ana Isabel; Fernández de Tejada Muñoz, Victoria
    The incorporation of People with Disability (PWD) in organizations is a subject taken up by international organizations, such as the European Union and the United Nations, which has had subsequent consequences in Spain with the development of legislation and specific initiatives. In this paper we have considered the concept of disability as part of diversity and, above all, as a fundamental subject of human rights and justice, which has allowed us to include the collective of PWD among the stakeholders of companies. The research on the incorporation of disability as an integral part of the policies of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) in companies is very recent, although the term Corporate Social Responsibility and Disability is already used. The main objective of this paper is to analyze the commitment with PWD of Spanish companies considered socially responsible by the sustainability indices used. We have included in four large dimensions (Stakeholders, Visibility, Human Resources and Accessibility) the indicators that have allowed us to analyze the information on PWD published by these companies in their sustainability reports or similar documents accessible through their websites. The results suggest that the companies are more concerned about improving their image towards the exterior than for the commitment with their own employees, which is consistent with the dimension Visibility being where the companies carry out more actions in favor of PWD.

    Market and Liquidity Risks Using Transaction-by-Transaction Information
    (MDPI, 2021-07) González Sánchez, Mariano; Ibáñez Jiménez, Eva María; Segovia San Juan, Ana Isabel
    The usual measures of market risk are based on the axiom of positive homogeneity while neglecting an important element of market information—liquidity. To analyze the effects of this omission, in the present study, we define the behavior of prices and volume via stochastic processes subordinated to the time elapsing between two consecutive transactions in the market. Using simulated data and market data from companies of different sizes and capitalization levels, we compare the results of measuring risk using prices compared to using both prices and volumes. The results indicate that traditional measures of market risk behave inversely to the degree of liquidity of the asset, thereby underestimating the risk of liquid assets and overestimating the risk of less liquid assets.

    Board of Directors’ Remuneration, Employee Costs, and Layoffs: Evidence from Spain
    (MDPI, 2021-07) González Sánchez, Mariano; Ibáñez Jiménez, Eva María; Segovia San Juan, Ana Isabel
    Most of the empirical studies on board remuneration have focused on finding explanatory performance measures. There are studies that analyze if the compensation contracts of directors reward managers in such a way that they strive to maximize firm performance and shareholders’ wealth; however, there are few studies on the social aspect of corporate governance, or agent–employee and principal–employee relationships. Thus, in this study, our aim is to test whether there is a causal relationship between the remuneration of the board of directors of listed companies and the personnel policies of the companies, expressed through the cost of personnel and layoffs. For that, we used a sample of Spanish listed companies, and we found that two performance measures (return on equity and earnings per share on market price) have a greater effect on the growth rate of board remuneration when layoffs occur. Additionally, we found that the sales revenue and cash flow on total assets subsequently influenced personnel management.

    Earnings management in socially responsible firms around seasoned equity offerings: Evidence from France, Germany, Italy and Spain
    (Elsevier, 2023-04) González Sánchez, Mariano; Segovia San Juan, Ana Isabel; Ibáñez Jiménez, Eva María
    Earnings manipulation (EM) has been a matter of interest to researchers for decades. How this is measured or the motivations of managers to engage in such actions have been studied in detail. Some studies find that managers have incentives to manipulate the earnings that accompany financing activities such as seasoned equity offerings (SEO). Under the corporate social responsibility (CSR) approach, profit manipulation actions have been shown to be mitigated in socially responsible companies. To the best of our knowledge, there are no studies that analyse whether CSR mitigate EM actions in a SEO context. Our work contributes to filling this gap. We investigate whether socially responsible companies exhibit EM in periods prior to SEO. This study uses a panel data model of listed non-financial firms from countries with the same currency and similar accounting rules (France, Germany, Italy and Spain) between 2012 and 2020. Our results show that in all the countries analysed, except Spain, there is a manipulation of operating cash flows in the year prior to capital increases, and only in French companies is there a decrease in the management of this variable in companies with higher development of corporate social responsibility.

    Market and model risks: a feasible joint estimate methodology
    (Springer Link, 2022-03-01) González Sánchez, Mariano::virtual::3534::600; Ibáñez Jiménez, Eva María::virtual::3535::600; Segovia San Juan, Ana Isabel::virtual::3536::600; González Sánchez, Mariano; Ibáñez Jiménez, Eva María; Segovia San Juan, Ana Isabel; González Sánchez, Mariano; Ibáñez Jiménez, Eva María; Segovia San Juan, Ana Isabel; González Sánchez, Mariano; Ibáñez Jiménez, Eva María; Segovia San Juan, Ana Isabel
    The increasing complexity of stochastic models used to describe the behavior of asset returns along with the practical difficulty of defining suitable hedging strategies are relevant factors that compromise the soundness and quality of risk measurement models. In this paper we define the risk model as the mispricing a consequence of using an inadequate model to describe asset behavior and we develop a least-squares Monte Carlo methodology to estimate market and model risk simultaneously. The results show that at different confidence levels and time horizons the proposed methodology to estimate the market and model risks has a greater joint explanatory power than the isolated estimate of market risk.

    The extreme temperature factor in asset pricing models: Evidence from Europe
    (ELSEVIER, 2024-08) González Sánchez, Mariano; Arguedas Sanz, Raquel; Segovia San Juan, Ana Isabel
    Growing concern about climate change has led to increased research into the effects of climate on markets. One of the weather variables studied is temperature. The previous studies considered that the temperature influences on asset returns through changes in investor mood. There are few studies that incorporate a risk factor to analyze the effects of temperature changes on asset returns. We extract positive and negative extreme temperature changes to design three temperature factors. By a cross-section asset pricing model, we find evidence that temperature shocks (hot and cold) show a significant monthly risk premium and skewness for temperature changes.

    Causes of country-specific effect related to the value relevance of cash flows and earnings: evidence from France, Germany, Italy and Spain
    (Taylor & Francis, 2022-09) González Sánchez, Mariano; Ibáñez Jiménez, Eva María; Segovia San Juan, Ana Isabel
    Previous studies show that, in common-law countries, the explanatory power of stock returns is higher using cash flows than earnings and accruals, while the opposite is true in code-law countries. Moreover, the literature has shown the existence of a country-specific effect motivated by different causes (taxation, financial system, creditor protection, among others). Our aim is to analyze whether this country-specific effect exists among companies in the largest Eurozone countries (France, Germany, Italy and Spain) despite the common regulatory framework, and also to study the causes that explain this country effect. We find empirical evidence that French, Italian and Spanish firms are influenced by tax rules, while German companies are more affected by creditors protection; also, Spain presents a bank-oriented financial system. Besides, the transitory earnings effect, characteristic of code-law countries, is not a cause of the country-specific effect. Therefore, national regulations are more relevant than the general EU regulatory framework.
