This paper tests hypotheses regarding the parameters in investorsasset demand functions. Most important is the hypothesis that federal bonds are closer substitutes for equity than for money; it is associated with the hypothesis of portfolio crowding out by federal borrowing. Previous regression studies of asset demand functions have not been able to obtain precise and plausible estimates for the parameters, without the imposition of prior beliefs. The present paper uses a MLE technique that dominates regression in that it makes full use of the constraint that the parameters are not determined arbitrarily, but rather are determined by mean-variance optimization on the part of the investor. The technique also dominates, on the other hand, previous estimates of the optimal portfolio from ex post return data, in that expected returns are not assumed to be constant over time, or to change slowly, but rather are allowed to fluctuate freely. Thus the framework is consistent with questions such as the effects of a sudden increase in federal debt on the expected returns of the various assets. Some hypotheses are tested where the answer seems clear in advance, such as a negative effect of the supply of money on the expected rate of return on equities. There the results of the MLE technique are much more plausible than the regression results. In the case of greatest controversy, a point estimate shows portfolio crowding in, not portfolio crowding out.

About the Book

Fintech companies are revolutionising the way financial services work. Their main strengths are superior agility, systems and customer focus, but established financial services have a strong advantage because they understand how to comply with regulations. This book teaches Fintech executives to attack incumbents in the regulatory arena, and at the same time to create moats against other Fintech companies.

When a company is starting up, regulatory requirements are small. However, they increase rapidly when a company starts growing and regulators start paying closer attention, or when regulators from other jurisdictions are getting involved. Regulators only have limited capacity, and if a company wants to be able to scale without being held back by the regulators, planning the regulatory strategy ahead of time is indispensable.

Going through regulatory texts is hard: even for the most basic financial services, the relevant regulations amount to thousands of pages of dry legalistic prose, describing the regulatory trees in detail but obfuscating the view on the regulatory forest. As a Fintech executive, this book gives you a map of the forest, allowing you quickly to identify the specific trees that matter for you. It clearly explains the purpose and the structure of the regulatory environment, and provides you with frameworks that enable you to develop an effective regulatory strategy.

The first part of the book explains why financial services regulation exists, what its goals are, and how Fintech executives can use regulation to gain a strategic advantage for their companies. The second part gives a more detailed map of the key regulations that Fintech companies have to follow, firstly identifying the most relevant ones, and then distilling the thousands of pages that still remain into about 100 pages in the book.

About the Author

Stefan is a theoretical physicist by training, holding a degree from the University of Bonn, and he spent some time at Ecole Polytechnique near Paris. He also holds an MBA degree from INSEAD.

Immediately after university he became a quant, developing pricing software for derivatives, where he lead Paribas' equity derivatives quant team worldwide. After the MBA he joined McKinsey & Co. as a consultant in the Corporate Finance practice, which is where he first got introduced to financial services regulation proper, in the form of the Basel 2 regulations. He then joined J.P. Morgan where he continued advising clients on Basel 2, helping them to position their balance sheets to optimise regulatory and economic capital and liquidity constraints.

After leaving J.P. Morgan he built an edtech platform for business schools to improve their online and classroom teaching. He was also invited to join the PRMIA Education Committee, and to co-edit and co-author the most recent revision of the PRMIA Handbook, the study guide for students taking the prestigious Professional Risk ManagerTM exam. More recently he was serving as CTO of an early stage start-up in the non-traditional lending space. His current focus is on bridging the gap between crypto and traditional finance, setting up structures that allow both of those spaces to work together while being in compliance with the applicable regulations.

PART I
Fintech Regulation and Strategy
CHAPTER 1
Regulatory Strategy for Fintech Companies

The Fintech spacelike the overall tech space a few years earlieris evolving at breakneck speed, even though from a low base when compared to the incumbents currently present in the market. Financial services is a highly regulated industryand for good reasons, as it is the lifeblood of a modern economy, and because it deals with people's live savings. Because of the lack of scale, Fintech has thus far mostly escaped regulation. However, this is coming to an end: as Fintech grows up and moves into the mainstream of finance, regulation on a par with that applied to other financial services is unavoidable.
