    In light of the debate on the distinction between addition and energy transition, this study sought to identify the potential and limitations of Chinese investments and financing for the decarbonization of the economies of Brazil and Argentina, as well as to verify the similarities and differences between the modes of operation of Chinese companies and institutions in each country. Both countries have seen the growth of Chinese engagement in the renewable energy sector in recent years. It was argued that China has been contributing to the energy diversification trajectories of both countries, with impacts, potential and limitations that are sometimes similar and sometimes different. It was noted that in Brazil, the acquisition of existing assets predominates, while in Argentina, financing plays a more relevant role. The reduction of energy intensity in the generation sector in Argentina was identified. The potential lies in the expansion of capacities through investments in new units and internalization of production chains associated with the energy transition. The prevalence of acquisitions in the Brazilian market is an important limitation, while the macroeconomic fragilities of Argentina present an important challenge.

    This study explores how market power and financial flexibility shape corporate investment policies among U.S. large and mature corporations, by estimating firm-specific, time-varying investment-to-added-value sensitivities. We find that firms with market power exhibit lower investment sensitivities, and this effect is more pronounced for the most financially flexible firms. We show that the firm's debt capacity is an important moderator in the relationship between market power and investment sensitivities. Our findings support theoretical predictions that market power and financial flexibility jointly influence investment decisions. The implication is that a lack of competition impedes corporate investments. For investors, these findings highlight the need to monitor both the competitive landscape and financial flexibility of firms in their portfolios.

    This paper examines the determinants of private equity activity across Europe. We analyze a total of 43 explanatory variables, categorized into six groups: Economy; Finance and capital markets; Quality of institutions; Life quality; Economic freedom and Globalization. We assess their impact on three target variables representing overall private equity activity: Investments, Divestments and Fundraising. The study covers 26 European countries over the period from 2007 to 2022. First, we use Bayesian Model Averaging (BMA) to identify which variables are essential for further analysis. We then conduct a multicollinearity test and remove variables highly correlated with those deemed significant by BMA. The final step involves panel data analysis to identify the key variables that countries should prioritize in order to enhance their private equity activity and make the necessary policy adjustments to improve their attractiveness in the private equity sector. Our findings highlight the significance of certain variables that have not been previously analyzed, alongside some traditionally acknowledged factors. Notably, trade openness, bank credit to the private sector, public spending on education, inflation and labor force emerge as significant determinants across Investments, Divestments, and Fundraising.

    We study whether investors perceive responsible investments (i.e., investments in assets with environmental or social benefits) as luxury goods. We exploit windfall wealth due to inheritance from parental death to obtain plausibly exogenous variations in wealth. We show that windfall wealth increases the likelihood of holding responsible mutual funds and green stocks. Our findings indicate that both supply factors (e.g., bank advice) and demand factors (e.g., preferences) play a role in shaping allocations to responsible investments. Notably, beneficiaries with a history of charitable donations exhibit a stronger response, emphasising the influence of a "warm glow" effect on portfolio compilation.
