There is a structural design flaw in the SLB mechanism: setting a significant coupon step-up does not suit the issuer’s nor the investors’ interests, considering conditionality.

Our results show that a negative gas supply shock positively affects clean energy stocks, while a negative shock in global oil supply does not have...
