Future Advancements for CSR and the Sustainable Development Goals in a Post-COVID-19 World
The COVID-19 global pandemic has had a profound impact on the global business community.

GEM Spain 2022-2023 Report. Entrepreneurship Observatory of Spain
Every year the GEM Spain team prepares a report on entrepreneurial activity in the country. After 23 years, it would seem unnecessary to explain why this report has become a fundamental tool for understanding the entrepreneurial and innovation ecosystem in our country. Or to have to explain why it is a vital reference for researchers, policy makers, entrepreneurs or anyone interested in business development. It is also well known that the GEM Spain Report analyses with scientific rigour the entrepreneurial phenomenon, activity, characteristics and context. It would be redundant to emphasise that its importance lies in the information it provides annually, giving a complete, detailed and up-to-date vision for designing effective policies and strategies to support and promote entrepreneurship in the country. However, it is important to remember how it is done year after year. In our country, the GEM report is developed in the Spanish Entrepreneurship Observatory through a network of 27 regional teams representing the entire Spanish territory, without whose effort and commitment all this would be impossible.
Basel Accord and Indian Banking Industry
The growth of any economy depends upon the strength of its financial system. In the Indian context, since the eve of independence, banking institutions have played a major role in the structural transformation of the economy. Initially Public sector banks acted both as a catalyst and a major contributor to the development of the Indian financial system without any profit motive. However the introduction of financial sector reforms and the subsequent entry of foreign banks and new generation private sector banks posed a threat to the survival of Public sector banks in India.

Commodity Markets: Asset Allocation, Pricing and Risk Management
The increasing presence of investors and financial intermediaries in commodity markets, together with the huge increase in the volatility of commodity prices, have renewed the interest in commodities and commodity derivatives. In the last decade, a better understanding of the behavior of commodity prices and their idiosyncratic statistical features has emerged as a relevant financial and policy topic. This book tries to provide new insights, first, to analyze the multivariate distribution of commodity returns and its impact on portfolio selection and tail risk measures; and, second, to price commodity derivatives under the presence of non-Gaussian shocks in a continuous time framework.
Summary of the Thesis: "Essays on Financial Stability and Corporate Finance"
El principal objetivo de este trabajo consiste en analizar los efectos que la estructura de propiedad bancaria tiene sobre la toma de riesgos, a nivel microeconómico y sobre el riesgo sistémico, a nivel macroeconómico. Para ello se desarrolla un modelo de competencia oligopolística y se analizan las propiedades del equilibrio de mercado en términos de beneficios, cuota de mercado y micro y macro estabilidad financiera cuando un banco comercial, maximizador de beneficios, compite contra un banco no orientado hacia los beneficios (stakeholder bank). Los resultados teóricos son validados empíricamente usando datos bancarios de 72 países durante el periodo 1997-2007. Concretamente se mue...
Systemic Risk: Measures and Determinants
This book studies the measurement and the determinants of systemic risk, paying special attention to the role of the Credit Default Swaps (CDSs) either as financial instruments containing valuable information about the soundness of the reference institutions or as a market whose distress contributes to potential systemic shocks on the economy. The measurement of systemic risk is addressed from two perspectives, aggregate and individual contribution to systemic risk where the former refers to the level of systemic risk in the overall economy and the latter to the individual contribution of each financial institution to the overall systemic risk. The analysis of the determinants of the individ...

Social entrepreneurship has grown in popularity in recent decades as a way to use business models and innovation to address social and environmental issues. While these ventures are helpful to many, emerging opportunities and challenges in the field still need to be explored.

Covering topics such as ecotourism, leadership styles, and poverty alleviation, this major reference work is an indispensable resource for business leaders and executives, entrepreneurs, government officials, community leaders, students and educators of higher education, economists, sociologists, librarians, researchers, and academicians.
Entrepreneurship and Well-being
Contributing to the targets of SDG #17, this book interrogates how the Global Entrepreneurship Monitor (GEM) and other indicators are (or can be) relevant for entering the global discussion on UN SDGs. By highlighting the topic of 'well-being' as a major connecting point between the SDGs, the GEM and other surveys the book has three main purposes: firstly, it shows that GEM data can contribute significantly to the monitoring process of the attainment of the Sustainable Development Goals; secondly it analyses the survey’s capacity to add value to the global discussion on well-being; thirdly, the book places emphasis on the pressing need for data in order to monitor the achievement of the SDGs. Ultimately, the book provides sound research that can serve as a basis for discussion with the UN on potential partnerships within the framework of SDG 17. The authors encourage GEM and other researchers to ensure that their data serves as a reliable partner to the UN in building a better world, based on well-being for everyone.
