Purpose: The present study examine implied volatility spillover and transmission between emerging (India) and mature stock markets (US, France, Germany and Switzerland), measured by their respective implied volatility indices i.e. IVIX, VIX, VCAC, VDAX and VSMI.Methodology: The asymmetries in Implied Volatility (IV) indices of selected countries are examined using Engle and Ng (1993) test. The spillovers and transmission are examined in multivariate-GARCH framework using BEKK and DCC model. The analysis is done using weekly data for period spanning from Nov, 2007 to Oct, 2011March. Findings: The main findings of study document asymmetries in the IV indices exist for the Indian, American and French markets. The BEKK-GARCH model results show that conditional variances of implied VI of India, Germany, French and Switzerland strongly affected by their own past shocks and volatility effects. The DCC model reveals that there is a moderate-level of correlation between the selected markets.
Practical Implications: The results of the present study can be used by the portfolio managers and market participant for yielding the diversification benefits in short-run by including IV indices as an asset in their portfolio.

Purpose: This paper aims to examine how selected characteristics indicators impact on performance measures of outreach and profitability in microfinance institutions (MFIs).
Design/Methodology/Approach: The study is an exploratory nature. The data is taken from 42 microfinance institutions. A panel data technique is employed as the key analytical framework.
Findings: It is shown that the characteristics play a critical role in the performance of MFIs. Find that size and number of offices has positive impact on microfinance institution.
Research limitation/implications: Data availability and accessibility is a limitation. Microfinance institutions in India do not provide their annual report on regular basis.
Originality/value: Society may get the benefits because outreach level will increase and poor people access to credit and their standard of living will increase.

The paper empirically examines the impact of corporate governance on the cash holding of the firms. The components of corporate governance are measured by board size, board meeting, audit committee members, director's remuneration and non executive directors and the cash holding is measured with the log of average cash and size is taken as control variable for the control effect on the dependent variables. Moreover, correlation and panel regression model were employed to examine the relationship between the corporate governance and cash holding. Empirical data was collected from 96 firms over the period of 2004-05 to 2013-14. The results show that directors' remuneration and the number of audit committee members positively influence the cash holding and the board size also positively influences the cash holding whereas, the non executive directors and the board meetings do not play any role in enhancing the cash holding.Keywords

The volatility index is the measure of 30-day expected volatility. Its association with stock index returns provides an insight to the volatility traders to launch derivatives products so that it can be used as a hedging tool. The aim of the present study is to empirically examine the relationship between the implied volatility indices and its underlying asset in context of developed and developing markets (like U.S., Japan, Germany, and China). The empirical findings report the asymmetric behaviour which indicates that a larger impact on implied volatility indices are from negative return shocks as compared to positive returns. This evinced that the investors and traders respond highly to negative returns in low volatile period by demanding more options at high premium which makes the implied volatility high. Therefore, the negative relationship between IVIX and stock index returns makes the index relevant for investors to diversifying their portfolio so that they can mitigate the investment risk associated with the volatility.Keywords
