Abstract:
Platform marketplaces can potentially steer buyers to certain sellers by recommending or guaranteeing those sellers. Money-back guarantees—which create a direct financial stake for the platform in seller performance—might be particularly effective at steering as they align buyer and platform interests in creating a good match. We report the results of an experiment in which a platform marketplace—an online labor market—guaranteed select sellers for treated buyers. The presence of a guarantee strongly steered buyers to these guaranteed sellers, but offering guarantees did not increase sales overall, suggesting financial risk was not determinative for the marginal buyer. This preference for guaranteed sellers was not the result of their lower financial risk, but rather because buyers viewed the platform’s decision to guarantee as informative about relative seller quality. Indeed, a follow-up experiment showed that simply recommending the sellers that the platform would have guaranteed was equally effective at steering buyers. This paper was accepted by Chris Forman, information systems.

Abstract:
Fiduciary material rights are guaranteed. The collateral objects are tangible, intangible and immovable objects that cannot be guaranteed with mortgages. Fiduciary collateral is widely used by finance companies. Debtor defaults, the leasing party executes fiduciary objects unilaterally, this is considered contrary to the 1945 Constitution. Article 15 paragraph (2) and Article 15 paragraph (3) of Act No 42 of 1999 concerning Fiduciary Guarantee is subjected to a material test. After Constitutional Court Number 18/PUU-XVII/2019, Execution of fiduciary guarantees after the decision of the, after Constitusional Court, creditors cannot execution guarantee directly because executorial beslag in fiduciary certificate which have power same with court decision has been canceled. According to Constitutional Court’s decision Number 18/PUU-XVII/2019 states that Article 15 paragraph (2) and Article 15 paragraph (3) of Act No 42 Year 1999 is contradictory to the 1945 Constitution. After the Constitutional Court's Decision No. 18/PUU-XVII/2019 states that the execution of guarantees cannot be carried out unilaterally by creditors, but must be through a District Court decision, unless there is an agreement on breach of contract between the debtor and the creditor and the debtor voluntarily submits the object of fiduciary collateral, this matter impact to lack of creditor’s interest to give loan with moveable object remember executory process need long time and many cost because execution object fiduciary guarantee must be district court decision. Notary as formulate’s agreement must be think carefully to response Constitutional Court Number 18/PUU-XVII/2019 with strengthen clause in fiduciary guarantee deed based on credit agreement which has been made the parties so that occur balanced right and obligation between creditor and debtor. Therefore author take theme about Notary’s role to make Notary’s deeds especially fiduciary guarantee’s deed after Constitutional Court Number 18/PUU-XVII/2019 with research’s method use literature research in the form of juridical data. The research is normative juridical and qualitative research type Research methods.

Abstract:
This study examines corporate bond guarantees by developing a theoretical model that decomposes the overall impact of a guarantee into signalling and incentive effects and presenting empirical evidence based on data from China’s corporate bond market. Our empirical research yields considerable evidence for the effects we posit in the model and provides some important insights into the problems of adverse selection and moral hazard in China’s bond market. The empirical evidence shows that the bond issuer with lower credit rating are more willing to purchase a bond guarantee and guaranteed bonds have a higher issue spread yield than those non-guaranteed bonds, even though both have the same bond credit rating. Our findings suggest that moral hazard would be better than adverse selection to explain the self- selection of bond guarantees. Prior to bond issuance credit rating signal provides a mechanism to mitigate information inequality, while bond guarantees relieve information asymmetry afterwards.

Abstract:
Under a guaranteed annuity option, an insurer guarantees to convert a policyholder's accumulated funds to a life annuity at a fixed rate when the policy matures. If the annuity rates provided under the guarantee are more beneficial to the policyholder than the prevailing rates in the market the insurer has to make up the difference. Such guarantees are common in many US tax sheltered insurance products. These guarantees were popular in UK retirement savings contracts issued in the 1970's and 1980's when long-term interest rates were high. At that time, the options were very far out of the money and insurance companies apparently assumed that interest rates would remain high and thus that the guarantees would never become active. In the 1990's, as long-term interest rates began to fall, the value of these guarantees rose. Because of the way the guarantee was written, two other factors influenced the cost of these guarantees. First, strong stock market performance meant that the amounts to which the guarantee applied increased significantly. Second, the mortality assumption implicit in the guarantee did not anticipate the improvement in mortality which actually occurred. The emerging liabilities under these guarantees threatened the solvency of some companies and led to the closure of Equitable Life (UK) to new business. In this paper we explore the pricing and risk management of these guarantees.

Abstract:
The types of guarantee institutions known in the Indonesian legal system can be classified according to their type, nature, purpose and management. Late payment will result in a claim for the guaranteed goods. Execution is an attempt by the ruling party to seek justice through res judicata. Bank guarantees, which are individual guarantees, and trustees, which are physical guarantee institutions, have different implementation methods at the time of default. This study tries to explain the problem of comparing legal situations with bank guarantees and trustees in a normative and juridical way. The results show that The authority to enforce bank guarantees on assets belonging to debtors in default refers to Articles 1131 and 1132 of the Civil Code. According to Articles 1131 and 1132 of the Civil Code, the goods belonging to the debtor (the guarantor) are generally collateral for the debtor's debt, and the proceeds from the sale of the collateral are charged to the recipient of the guarantee.

Abstract:
This article commences with a discussion of recent research on perceptions of treatment of ethnic minority defendants in England, including jury trial. In this context a recent Court of Appeal decision affirms its previous decision that judges may not interfere in jury selection to ensure a fair ethnic or other balance in a jury; European Convention jurisprudence was not relevant to the particular issue before the court. At the same time the US Supreme Court made a rare visit to the problem of ethnic balance in jury selection. The majority held that the prosecution measures during the voir dire did discriminate against the defendant. The dissident justice's opinion is also analysed. The article then uses tests for statistical significance on the measures in issue considered by both majority and dissident. It is suggested that such tests would be helpful to courts generally in such cases. In conclusion a ‘guaranteee’ for fair ethnic representation in British juries is proposed.

Abstract:
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to focus on public guarantees granted to micro-, small- and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) by the Italian national credit guarantee programme (Fondo Centrale di Garanzia – Central Guarantee Fund – (CGF)). The CGF provides a direct guarantee to banks granting loans or a counter-guarantee to mutual guarantee institutions (MGIs) acting as first-level guarantors. Because the behaviour of MGIs could affect the default risk of counter-guaranteed loans, it is vital to investigate their operating and structural characteristics in order to identify an optimal design for public credit guarantee schemes (PCGSs). Design/methodology/approach Using regression models, the paper analyses the determinants of default for 33,229 SME loans guaranteed by an MGI and counter-guaranteed by the Italian CGF. The dependent variable is the ex-post default risk of SMEs’ counter-guaranteed loans in the 2010-2011 period. The explanatory variables are certain characteristics of the MGI. Findings The authors demonstrate that increases in an MGI’s leverage and the size of the counter-guaranteed portfolios increase the default risk. When the counter-guaranteed portfolio increases, MGIs are more risk taking but take less risk than when local and specialized MGIs are at play. Finally, direct public aid is relevant. Practical implications An appropriate design of the PCGS becomes crucial to controlling moral hazard in financial institutions and ensuring the financial sustainability of public intervention in favour of SMEs. Originality/value The paper evaluates an original and confidential firm-level data set that is not available in public documents or supervisory board statistics but is collected directly from the MGIs that participated in this study.

Abstract:
Vacuity legal product of governing aircraft as an object of fiduciary guarantees raises legal problems regarding it’s status. Under the aircraft law the mortgage is guaranteed, but further arrangements regarding mortgage guarantees do not exist until now. The void of regulation has led to differing views about the guarantor institution that is authorized to guarantee aircraft. Apart from the guarantor institution, the types of financing and procedures for execution are difficult to determine because of the legal vacuum.

Abstract:
O presente trabalho tem por objetivo apresentar ao leitor as diversas formas de garantia que poderão ser oferecidas ao particular, pelo Estado, como forma de atraí-lo à contratação de parcerias público-privadas, instituídas em âmbito federal pela lei nº. 11.079, de 30 de dezembro de 2004. A escassez de recursos públicos, culminando com a incapacidade estatal de investir em áreas de sua responsabilidade, fez com que se buscassem novas formas de interação entre os setores público e privado. Contudo, o histórico de mau pagador da Administração Pública brasileira implicou na necessidade de oferecimento de garantias àqueles que irão contratar com o poder público, sem as quais talvez poucos ousassem investir seu capital em atividades nem sempre certamente rentáveis. A proposta é analisar as diversas modalidades de garantias, apontando suas fragilidades e seus aspectos favoráveis, sempre no intuito de mostrá-las viáveis e eficientes. Por fim, algumas sugestões de novas espécies serão apresentadas, aumentando a gama de opções que o administrador terá ao seu alcance quando pretender levar a efeito uma contratação desta natureza.
The present work aims at presenting the reader a wide range of guarantees which can be offered to private companies by the State, so as to attract them to contracting public-private partnerships, instituted in federal extent under law number 11.079, dated December 30, 2004. The shortage in public resources, culminating with the incapacity of the State to invest in sectors of its own responsibility, has brought about the pursuit of new ways of interaction between the public and private sectors. Notwithstanding, the fact that Brazilian Public Administration has a history of being a bad payer has implied the need for guarantees to those who will hire the Public Power, taking into consideration that perhaps only a few people will be willing to invest their funds in doubtfully profitable activities. The purpose of this paper is to analyze the various forms of guarantees, pointing out weaknesses and favorable aspects, always targeting on turning them viable and efficient. At last, some other new suggestions will be introduced, enhancing the range of options the administrator may have at reach whenever one intends to put into practice such kind of hiring.

Abstract:
Ce travail de recherche tend à exposer la nécessité de la privation de liberté avant procès et la corrélation entre la sauvegarde de l’ordre public et la liberté individuelle dans le cadre de la manifestation de la vérité. Pour cela, le législateur doit instituer des contrepoids aux mesures privatives de liberté avant jugement (des mesures de milieu fermé ou ouvert) afin de permettre à la personne mise en cause de contrebalancer l’accusation. Dans ce cadre, les personnes privées de liberté doivent bénéficier des garanties judiciaires en vue de contester l’accusation, c’est-à-dire les charges retenues contre elles dans les procédures d’enquête et de l’information, par la voie de contrôle institutionnel afin d’éviter des détentions excessives et arbitraires. C’est ainsi que cette étude analyse l’équilibre des droits entre les parties, c’est-à-dire entre le ministère public et la personne mise en cause, dans la phase de l’avant-procès pénal au sein des politiques criminelles française et haïtienne
The preparatory phase of the criminal trial is characterized by the presumption of innocence in the application of custodial measures. In this regard, the alleged must in some degree be exempted from custody (removal of freedom) because of his status of “presumed innocent” within the definition of the rights to freedom. However, in the contemporary criminal proceedings, custodial measures are taken before trials in order to seek evidence of the truth, safeguard social peace and secure the criminal trial.This derogation from the principle of freedom expresses the need for custodial measures in the pre-trial phase. In this context, the modern criminal procedure is based on the balance between the right to freedom and the protection of the general interest. This the way that the French and Haitian criminal laws establish measures involving removal of freedom prior to trials to relativize the right to freedom during the procedures of investigation and information.This research work is part of this judicial balance in matters of custody prior to trial. Indeed, this study tends to expose the necessity of the removal of freedom before trial and the correlation between the safeguard of public safety and individual freedom in the context of the search of evidence of the truth. Consequently, French and Haitian criminal policies establish a counterweight to the custodial measures prior to trial (closed or open environment measures) in order to allow the alleged to counterbalance the allegations. Thus, custodians must benefit fromjudicial guarantees in order to appeal the allegations, that is to say the charges brought against them, in the procedures of investigation and information, by means of institutional control in order to avoid excessive, arbitrary and illegal detentions. This is how our study analyzes the balance of rights between the parties : the public prosecutor (prosecutor) and the accused person, in the phase of the criminal pre-trial within the French and Haitian criminal policies

With the increasing importance of communication networks comes an increasing need to protect against network failures. Traditional network protection has been an "all-or-nothing" approach: after any failure, all network traffic is restored. Due to the cost of providing this full protection, many network operators opt to not provide protection whatsoever. This is especially true in wireless networks, where reserving scarce resources for protection is often too costly. Furthermore, network protection often does not come with guarantees on recovery time, which becomes increasingly important with the widespread use of real-time applications that cannot tolerate long disruptions. This thesis investigates providing protection for mesh networks under a variety of service guarantees, offering significant resource savings over traditional protection schemes. First, we develop a network protection scheme that guarantees a quantifiable minimum grade of service upon a failure within the network. Our scheme guarantees that a fraction q of each demand remains after any single-link failure, at a fraction of the resources required for full protection. We develop both a linear program and algorithms to find the minimum-cost capacity allocation to meet both demand and protection requirements. Subsequently, we develop a novel network protection scheme that provides guarantees on both the fraction of time a flow has full connectivity, as well as a quantifiable minimum grade of service during downtimes. In particular, a flow can be below the full demand for at most a maximum fraction of time; then, it must still support at least a fraction q of the full demand. This is in contrast to current protection schemes that offer either availability-guarantees with no bandwidth guarantees during the down-time, or full protection schemes that offer 100% availability after a single link failure. We show that the multiple availability guaranteed problem is NP-Hard, and develop solutions using both a mixed integer linear program and heuristic algorithms. Next, we consider the problem of providing resource-efficient network protection that guarantees the maximum amount of time that flow can be interrupted after a failure. This is in contrast to schemes that offer no recovery time guarantees, such as IP rerouting, or the prevalent local recovery scheme of Fast ReRoute, which often over-provisions resources to meet recovery time constraints. To meet these recovery time guarantees, we provide a novel and flexible solution by partitioning the network into failure-independent "recovery domains", where within each domain, the maximum amount of time to recover from a failure is guaranteed. Finally, we study the problem of providing protection against failures in wireless networks subject to interference constraints. Typically, protection in wired networks is provided through the provisioning of backup paths. This approach has not been previously considered in the wireless setting due to the prohibitive cost of backup capacity. However, we show that in the presence of interference, protection can often be provided with no loss in throughput. This is due to the fact that after a failure, links that previously interfered with the failed link can be activated, thus leading to a "recapturing" of some of the lost capacity. We provide both an ILP formulation for the optimal solution, as well as algorithms that perform close to optimal.

Abstract:
The Swedish Export Credit Agency (EKN) issues payment guarantees to Swedish companies who face the risk of non-payments in export transactions. Commitments are typically correlated, as defaults of companies are driven by other factors than factors specific to that company, such as the economic cycle or the regional conditions. In deciding upon how much capital to be reserved to remain solvent even in an unlikely scenario, this has to be accounted for in order to not underestimate financial risks.By studying models for credit risk and the research available in the area, the popular CreditRisk+ has been chosen as a suitable model for EKN to use in risk assessments. The model together with a few customizations are described in detail and tested on data from EKN.
Exportkreditnämnden (EKN) utfärdar betalningsgarantier till svenska exportörer som riskerar inställda betalningar. Fallissemang hos olika motparter är typiskt korrelerade. Vid bedömning av risken i portföljen av garantier måste detta tas i beaktning, för att inte underskatta risken väsentligt. Genom att studera befintliga kreditriskmodeller och tillgänglig forskning inom området har en modell föreslagits som kan användas i EKN:s riskbedömningar. Modellen beskrivs i detalj och testas på data från EKN.

Abstract:
The mapping problem is a major player in mobile robotics, and it is essential for many real applications such as disaster response or nuclear decommissioning. Generally, the robotic mapping is addressed under the umbrella of simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM). Several probabilistic techniques were developed in the literature to approach the SLAM problem, and despite the good performance, their convergence proof is only limited to linear Gaussian models. This thesis proposes an interval SLAM (i-SLAM) algorithm as a new approach that addresses the robotic mapping problem in the context of interval methods. The noise of the robot sensor is assumed bounded, and without any prior knowledge of its distribution, we specify soft conditions that guarantee the convergence of robotic mapping for the case of nonlinear models with non-Gaussian noise. A new theory about compact sets is developed in the context of real analysis to conclude such conditions. Then, a case study is presented where the performance of i-SLAM is compared to the probabilistic counterparts in terms of accuracy and efficiency. Moreover, this work presents an application for i-SLAM using an RGB-D sensor that operates in unknown environments. Interval methods and computer vision techniques are employed to extract planar landmarks in the environment. Then, a new hybrid data association approach is developed using a modified version of bag-of-features method to uniquely identify different landmarks across timesteps. Finally, the results obtained using the proposed data association approach are compared to the typical least-squares approaches, thus demonstrating the consistency and accuracy of the proposed approach.

Full text
Abstract:
This paper describes in detail ALSTOM’s steam path upgrade of JK Spruce Unit 1 GE ‘G2’ HP-IP turbine cylinder. The retrofit features high performance impulse technology three dimensional blade designs for short height turbine stages. Performance improvement was achieved through improved aerodynamic design and increased stage count in the HP expansion (the number of stages in the IP remained unchanged in order to maintain the steam conditions in an extraction part-way down the steam path). The unit was also converted from partial arc to full arc steam admission during the retrofit which resulted in additional performance improvement at full load conditions. Performance guarantees for the retrofit were given in the form of absolute values for HP and IP cylinder adiabatic efficiency and a guarantee on absolute post-retrofit output power. The guarantee levels were based on in-house performance prediction method for turbine cylinders employing the Company’s low reaction technology blading. The code is based on the method first described by Craig and Cox [1], which has been continuously updated and developed to correctly account for advances in the company’s steam path technology over time. The guarantee for the HP cylinder efficiency (excluding the effect of inlet valve pressure drop) was 93.0%, the IP cylinder was guaranteed to achieve an efficiency of 92.8% excluding valves. The retrofit performance achieved was verified by enthalpy drop tests on the HP and IP expansions and the guaranteed performance levels were achieved in both cases. The centre-gland leakage was also measured as part of the performance guarantee testing. A novel method using the centre-gland blowdown pipe was employed, as an alternative to the temperature variation method. This alternative approach is described in the paper. The retrofit has now been in operation for a period of approximately two years and following the initial guarantee testing, additional performance tests have taken place at various points during this period. The data allows any degradation in the performance of the retrofit cylinder over time to be assessed. This is also discussed in the paper.

Full text
Abstract:
Current trends in usage patterns of gas turbines in combined cycle applications indicate a substantial proportion of part load operation. Commensurate with the change in operating profile, there has been an increase in the propensity for part load performance guarantees. When a project is structured such that gas turbines are procured as equipment-only from the manufacturer, there is occasionally a gas turbine part load performance guarantee that coincides with the net plant combined cycle part load performance guarantee. There are several methods by which to accomplish part load gas turbine performance testing. One of the more common methods is to operate the gas turbine at the specified load value and construct correction curves at constant load. Another common method is to operate the gas turbine at a specified load percentage and construct correction curves at constant percent load. A third method is to operate the gas turbine at a selected load level that corresponds to a predetermined compressor inlet guide vane (IGV) angle. The IGV angle for this third method is the IGV angle that is needed to achieve the guaranteed load at the guaranteed boundary conditions. The third method requires correction curves constructed at constant IGV, just like base load correction curves. Each method of test and correction embodies a particular set of advantages and disadvantages. The results of an exploration into the advantages and disadvantages of the various performance testing and correction methods for part load performance testing of gas turbines are presented. Particular attention is given to estimates of the relative uncertainty for each method.

Full text
Abstract:
Abstract The best assurance an owner has to maximize the performance of the entire combined cycle power plant is perfect alignment of HRSG performance guarantee metrics to this goal. Currently, HRSG equipment performance guarantees include steam generation rates and steam temperature at each pressure level plus draft loss and reheater pressure drop. This profusion of guaranteed parameters with multiple bonus/LD rates is not always well correlated to the customer’s ultimate goal of delivering MW from the bottoming cycle since the behavior of each steam generation circuit is a complex function of steam pressure, steam turbine performance, and GT exhaust temperature. This paper proposes a solution that normalizes and combines all HRSG performance measurements into a single value directly and reliably tied to the customer value metric (which may be different for fired and unfired operation or other load points). This is achieved by expressing the HRSG performance guarantee in terms of exergy recovered to steam and plant exergy loss attributable to the HRSG (gas side draft loss). This will be shown, with examples, to serve the goals of the customer to confirm by test that an HRSG delivers the promised steam exergy consistent with the plant level performance requirement.

Full text
Abstract:
For many years now, an increased emphasis has been placed on the energy requirements of electric motor driven equipment. For end-users footing monthly electrical bills, efficiency is important along with the assurance that the equipment delivers the specified output. With fans, it is now commonplace to put performance guarantees in place when purchasing new equipment which specify volume flow, pressure requirements and expectations for efficiency or power that have to be met. Test procedures suitable for conducting fan performance guarantee tests are available in many published AMCA, ASME, ANSI, BS and ISO performance test standards and codes. These procedures specify how to measure the fan performance at discrete operating points and provide uncertainty analysis methods to estimate the accuracy of the test. Some test standards are believed to provide more accurate field test results than others. It is generally recognized throughout industry that it is virtually impossible to have suitable correlation between the site and the specified design conditions for the purpose of a ‘guarantee test’. This is often due to differences in the actual system resistance compared to what was predicted by the original design calculations as well as difficulties of adjusting system resistance and maintaining system stability with a process operating on line. The method of fan volume flow control, whether variable speed or throttle control, influences the amount of time and effort required to get the test point as close as possible to the specified operating point. With possibly the exception of AMCA and BS, published test standards and codes generally do not provide methods for evaluating whether the performance guaranteed by the fan vendor has been verified by a performance test. This technical paper provides guidelines for how to approach the difficult problem of verifying guaranteed operating points on fans. It specifically deals with the following aspects: - Evaluation of both partial and full capacity operating points. - Data collection methodology for selecting the number and relative positions of performance test points that are required to verify a guaranteed operating point. - Evaluation methodology that will relate the test points obtained to the specified operating point; Single Point, Multiple Point Line and Multiple Point Box data collection and evaluation methods. - Potential acceptance tolerances for flow, pressure, power and/or efficiency of the guaranteed operating point. - Field test accuracy and the implications on acceptance tolerances.

Full text
Abstract:
The steam turbine retrofit business has grown in recent years, largely due to advances in the aerodynamic design of steam path components, to the point that retrofitting non-OEM equipment is now common place within the industry. This paper discusses different steam turbine retrofit scenarios and how improvements in component performance translate into tangible power and heat rate benefits for plant operators. Methods for guaranteeing the performance of steam turbine retrofit cylinders, that allow the guarantees to be verified by testing approaches that minimize expense and uncertainty are described. Depending on the retrofit solution, guarantees may be simple turbine cylinder efficiency guarantees, performance improvement guarantees or absolute performance guarantees. Different types of testing are appropriate to verify these different forms of guarantee, and they are discussed in the paper.

Full text
Abstract:
This paper presents a methodology for analyzing the H2 guaranteed cost performance of a discrete-time LTI system with unstructured dynamic uncertainty. Using the methods of guaranteed cost control, an upper bound on H2 guaranteed cost performance over unstructured parametric uncertainty is formulated in terms of feasibility of a linear matrix inequality. It is then shown that the feasibility of this inequality also guarantees the same level of performance also over unstructured dynamic uncertainty. This is then used to formulate the problem of finding the best upper bound on H2 guaranteed cost performance over unstructured causal dynamic uncertainty as a semi-definite program. Finally, it is shown that this optimization problem can be solved efficiently and accurately using discrete algebraic Riccati equations.

Abstract:
Personal guarantees represent a person (guarantor) assumed in favor of a creditor in order to guarantee the satisfaction of the creditor's claim against a debtor (principal debtor). The surety is the obligation of the guarantor (guarantor) assumed for the benefit of a creditor in order to guarantee the obligation that the debtor owes to the creditor (secured obligation) and which appears and becomes due only if the secured obligation appears and becomes due. The surety has a double meaning, namely: the right of guarantee, which arises from the contract concluded in favor of the creditor and the obligation assumed by a person outside a legally binding relationship.

Abstract:
Subset selection with cost constraints is a fundamental problem with various applications such as influence maximization and sensor placement. The goal is to select a subset from a ground set to maximize a monotone objective function such that a monotone cost function is upper bounded by a budget. Previous algorithms with bounded approximation guarantees include the generalized greedy algorithm, POMC and EAMC, all of which can achieve the best known approximation guarantee. In real-world scenarios, the resources often vary, i.e., the budget often changes over time, requiring the algorithms to adapt the solutions quickly. However, when the budget changes dynamically, all these three algorithms either achieve arbitrarily bad approximation guarantees, or require a long running time. In this paper, we propose a new algorithm FPOMC by combining the merits of the generalized greedy algorithm and POMC. That is, FPOMC introduces a greedy selection strategy into POMC. We prove that FPOMC can maintain the best known approximation guarantee efficiently.

Full text
Abstract:
This paper studies the effect of government-backed partial credit guarantees on firms' performance. These guarantees are automatically granted to firms without enough collateral in order to lift their credit constraints. We put together a panel, covering the period 1997-2007, that combines data from DANE's Annual Manufacturing Survey; DIAN's export and import information; and firm-level records from the National Guarantee Fund (NGF), the government agency in charge of implementing this policy. Using propensity score matching and difference-in-differences, we found that firms that gain access to credit backed by the NGF are able to grow in terms of both output and employment. However, we did not find any effect on productivity, wages, or investment. These results suggest that firms use the new funds as working capital to grow their businesses rather than for investment in new durable goods that increase their capital stock.

Full text
Abstract:
This evaluation reviews the experience of the Inter-American Development Bank Group (IDB Group) with using medium- and long-term guarantees to support its clients during the period 2005 to 2020. This is the first evaluation by the Office of Evaluation and Oversight (OVE) of the guarantee instrument - an instrument that has the potential to mobilize private resources and has been in the tool kit of the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB) since its establishment (see IDB, 1996). The evaluation is delivered at a time when the IDB Group and its borrowers are looking for innovative ways to mobilize additional financing to confront the consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic, to meet the Sustainable Development Goals, and to comply with the Paris Agreement. The From Billions to Trillions initiative prepared jointly by several multilateral development banks (MDBs) aims to mobilize private financing for these goals (AfDB et al., 2015). This evaluation examines the extent to which the IDB Group has used guarantees to mobilize private resources and identifies the main challenges to the use of long- and medium-term guarantees. The focus is on guarantees as an instrument, and thus the evaluation does not assess the outcomes of projects and programs financed using guarantees.

Full text
Abstract:
This evaluation examines IDB's management of credit risk of Non-Sovereign Guaranteed Operations. Although the IDB is not subject to the Principles for the Management of Credit Risk issued by the Basel Committee for Banking Supervision, these principles have been used as guidelines for this assessment. It can be concluded that the IDB largely complies with Basel's credit risk management principles. To further develop what is already a solid foundation for its credit risk management system, it is recommended that the IDB adopts a comprehensive Credit Risk Framework that clearly defines its risk appetite for NSG. Such framework should spell out the objectives and procedures supporting the desired NSG loan/guarantee portfolio. The strengthening of the Portfolio Management Function is also recommended to complement the current credit administration and risk management functions being carried out by the originating divisions within SCF and OMJ, PMU and RMG. The IDB should also address the risks posed by the current absence of an integrated information system to support the loan/guarantee granting, administration, risk and portfolio management.
