slope of the Treasury term structure are negatively correlated with changes in the credit spread on investment-grade corporate bonds. We also find that the relation between credit spreads and the Treasury term structure is relatively stable through time. This is good news for value-at-risk calculations, as this suggests that the correlations among assets of different credit classes are stable; therefore use of historic correlations to model spread relations can be valid.

subsidies. We establish the relation between subsidy rates and spillovers from the sequential adoption of the new technology and we find that they evolve in the same direction over time. The intuition suggests that subsidy rates should be decreasing over time when the cost of adopting the new technology decreases over time. First, we show that contrary to the intuition, spillovers from adoption hence subsidy rates are not always monotonic. Then we show that when subsidy rates are increasing, their growth

Even if Golf is practiced in Scotland for a long time, it’s very difficult to know precisely where the sport was born. But one thing is certain; the Golf as we know today was born in Scotland many years ago. Different historians agree that several civilisations already played a similar game. Indeed, an
