structure. Given the high volatility of carbon price, the importance of price risk management becomes unquestioned. This study is the first attempt to calculate hedge ratios and to investigate their hedging effectiveness in the EU-ETS carbon market by applying conventional and recently developed models of estimation. These hedge ratios are then compared with those derived for other markets. In spite of the uniqueness and novelty of the carbon market, the results of the study are consistent with those found

During Logistic regression, categorical dependent variable which is the discriminant function is used when all the predictors that are present are continuous and distributed in a nice way. The binary logic regression has become the most preferred data analysis method that describes the relationship between response variable and an explanatory variable that and it is usually used where a variable follows binomial distribution. Assumptions of binary logistic regression Among the assumptions applied in

determine the allocation of random demand into base and surge capacity, ii) estimate corresponding working capital requirements, and iii) identify and value the key drivers of dual sourcing. Given that even this simple TBS policy is not amenable to exact analysis, we investigate a Brownian approximation that yields a simple “square-root” formula that is insightful to answer our questions and sufficiently accurate for practice, as is demonstrated with a validation study. 1. Introduction and Summary
