For 366 large non-financial U.K. firms, this paper reports the factors that are important in determining their decision to hedge foreign currency exposure. The results provide strong evidence of a relationship between expected financial distress costs and the foreign currency hedging decision and more significantly the foreign currency only hedging decision. These findings seem stronger than those found in similar studies using U.S. data. The paper argues that this might be due to the fact that several U.S. studies include in their non-hedging sample other hedging firms, such as firms using non-derivative methods for currency hedging and interest rate only hedgers, which might bias the results against the a priori expectations. However, it might also be due to a country specific institu...

Section 113 of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the ``Dodd-Frank Act'') authorizes the Financial Stability Oversight Council (the ``Council'') to determine that a nonbank financial company shall be supervised by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the ``Board of Governors'') and shall be subject to prudential standards, in accordance with Title I of the Dodd-Frank Act, if the Council determines that material financial distress at the nonbank financial company, or the nature, scope, size, scale, concentration, interconnectedness, or mix of the activities of the nonbank financial company, could pose a threat to the financial stability of the United States.

CLEVELAND, Nov. 9, 2010 /PRNewswire/ -- The apparent hiccup in the American economy's recovery, coupled with the uncertainties arising from healthcare reform, place even greater stress on all hospitals. Additionally, reimbursement-related factors also have the potential to increase financial distress, including significant recoupment findings under RAC and other new or enhanced governmental audit processes, increases in uninsured and underinsured populations, and CMS policy changes effecting cost reimbursement. Finally, other economic factors may worsen the financial distress, including increased competition, declining patient populations, the loss of key physicians, and lower community and state support. Critical access facilities, with their rural locations, small markets and limited ...

Most scholars know little about the panic of 1792, America's first financial market crash, during which securities prices dropped nearly 25 percent in two weeks. Treasury Secretary Alexander Hamilton adroitly intervened to stem the crisis, minimizing its effect on the nascent nation's fragile economic and political systems. U.S. policymakers soon forgot the crisis-management techniques Hamilton invented but failed to codify. Many of them were later rediscovered and became theoretical and practical standards of modern central-bank crisis management. Hamilton, for example, formulated and implemented "Bagehot's rules" for central-bank crisis management eight decades before Walter Bagehot wrote about them in Lombard Street.
