ICT and Employment in India: A Sectoral Level Analysis. (arXiv:1704.01316v1 [q-fin.EC])
How technology affects growth or employment has long been debated. With a hiatus, the debate revived once again in the form of how Information and Communications Technology, as a form of new technology, exerts on productivity and employment. Information and Communications Technology perceived as General Purpose Technology like steam engine or electricity in the past, ushered the world into a new techno-economic paradigm, given its deep social, economic and cultural implications. For instance, within economic implication, it is hard to imagine an economic activity that does not it, directly or indirectly. Eventually, Information and Communications Technology intensity, measure as the ratio of Information and Communications Technology investment to total investment, increased phenomenally in industries across sectors.

The Wandering of Corn. (arXiv:1704.01179v1 [q-fin.GN])
Time and Sales of corn futures traded electronically on the CME Group Globex are studied. Theories of continuous prices turn upside down reality of intra-day trading. Prices and their increments are discrete and obey lattice probability distributions. A function for systematic evolution of futures trading volume is proposed. Dependence between sample skewness and kurtosis of waiting times does not support hypothesis of Weibull distribution. Kumaraswamy distribution is more suitable for waiting times. Relationships between trading volume and maximum profit strategies are presented. Frequencies of absolute b-increments are approximated by a Hurwitz Zeta distribution. Relative b-increments are non-Gaussian too. Dependence between b- and a-increments allows to interpret the sample variances of b-increments as a stochastic process. Mean sample variance of b-increments vs. a-increments is presented. The L1 distance and Log-likelihood statistics for independence between a- and b-increments are controversial. Corn price jumps remind of chain branching reactions. Bi-logarithmic plots of the empirical frequencies of extreme b-increments vs. ranks are presented. Corresponding distributions resemble snakes forked tongues. The maximum profit strategy is discussed as a measure of non-equilibrium.

Two-Stage Stochastic International Portfolio Optimisation under Regular-Vine-Copula-Based Scenarios. (arXiv:1704.01174v1 [cs.CE])
In this paper, we present a two-stage stochastic international portfolio optimisation model to find an optimal allocation for the combination of both assets and currency hedging positions. Our optimisation model allows a "currency overlay", or a deviation of currency exposure from asset exposure, to provide flexibility in hedging against, or in speculation using, currency exposure. The transaction costs associated with both trading and hedging are also included.

Designing frameworks for central bank liquidity assistance: addressing new challenges
Liquidity assistance (LA) operations that took place during the 2007-09 Global Financial Crisis presented central banks with a number of challenges. Notwithstanding important changes in the institutional and regulatory landscape, some of these challenges remain in place, and lessons drawn from the crisis experience remain highly relevant. Above all that LA should be provided swiftly but only when there is a clearly identifiable liquidity problem and when other tools are not available. It should also be supplied in ways that ...
