Abstract: The paper provides a comparative review of the methodologies used to assess the creditworthiness
of large non-financial corporations. We examine four major credit assessment systems: selected
international External Credit Assessment Institutions (ECAIs), banks’ Internal Ratings-Based (IRB)
systems, the In-house Credit Assessment Systems (ICASes) of euro-area central banks, and credit rating
agencies operating in the Italian market. Although these frameworks differ in terms of regulatory
framework and objectives, several common methodological features emerge. These include the
integration of soft information with hard data, group-level assessment, sector analysis and monitoring
procedures. We also find some differences, particularly in the integration of environmental, social
and governance (ESG) factors and in the use of artificial intelligence (AI) tools2026-01-01T00:00:00ZItalian Audiovisual DEI Policieshttps://hdl.handle.net/10807/3477122026-09-29T00:34:16Z2026-01-01T00:00:00ZTitolo: Italian Audiovisual DEI Policies

Abstract: The database, developed as part of the research project “E|Quality. Strategies for Meaningful Inclusion in Italian Cinema and Television”, compiles information on the Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) policies and initiatives adopted by 95 Italian audiovisual production companies. The sample was selected from production companies active between 2017 and 2024 that had the greatest social impact through the content they produced, calculated by weighting each film produced by the number of cinema-goers and the production company’s shareholding. The original documents and policies can be retrieved in full from the project's dedicated archive, available at https://centric.unicatt.it/archiviodei.2026-01-01T00:00:00ZIl paradosso africano del denaro contantehttps://hdl.handle.net/10807/3433242026-09-24T23:20:59Z2026-01-01T00:00:00ZTitolo: Il paradosso africano del denaro contante
Autori: Beatrice Nicolini
Abstract: L’Africa possiede l’infrastruttura di pagamento digitale più avanzata del mondo in proporzione alla popolazione servita; eppure, il contante resta la moneta con cui si compra il cibo, si paga l’affitto, si salda un debito. Il continente concentra circa il 74% del volume globale delle transazioni in mobile money e nel 2024 ha movimentato oltre 1,1 trilioni di dollari attraverso più di un miliardo di conti (GSMA, State of the Industry Report on Mobile Money 2025). Nonostante questa scala impressionante, oltre il 90% del valore ricevuto in mobile money viene ritirato in contanti quasi subito, un comportamento che il recente rapporto di Affinity Africa, Mo Ibrahim Foundation e Yale International Leadership Center definisce la trappola del cash-in/cash-out. È il tema centrale del rapporto “The State of Cash Dependency and Digital Financial Inclusion in Africa”, pubblicato nel giugno 2026, che merita di essere raccontato perché tocca una questione che va ben oltre i pagamenti: la capacità del continente di costruire credito, fisco e sovranità economica.2026-01-01T00:00:00ZOptimizing the calibration of agent-based models throughreinforcement learninghttps://hdl.handle.net/10807/3419442026-09-18T02:34:47Z2026-01-01T00:00:00ZTitolo: Optimizing the calibration of agent-based models throughreinforcement learning
