Crypto returns are non‑Gaussian. This paper shows higher‑moment characteristic factors (size, momentum, tokenomics) help span the SDF and materially improve portfolio performance and stability under fat tails and asymmetry. spkl.io/6011AhQnS #Crypto #AssetPricing

This study uses framing theory & interviews with 40 sustainability #stakeholders in #China (29 reporting preparers; 11 assurance providers) to examine how they define “quality” in #sustainability assurance. Read: spkl.io/6014AhSA4 Subscribe: spkl.io/6016AhSAA
