monetary policies Macroeconomic indicators system dynamics fuzzy multi-criteria decision-making techniques
The most important policymaker entity in the bank-centered economy of Iran is central bank of Islamic Republic of Iran which has always been trying to manage and improve macroeconomic indicators by applying monetary policies. However, investigation of Iran's economy after four decades shows that this country has always suffered from double-digit inflation rates and 15000-fold liquidity throughout this period, while GDP of Iran has grown only by two times during this period. This paper tries to evaluate the effect of monetary policies of central bank on macroeconomic indicators by analytical-descriptive and library method via combining system dynamics and fuzzy multi-criteria decision-making using Vensim and Super Decision software. Monetary policy instruments in this re-search include foreign exchange rate, deposits interest rate, facilities interest rate, required reserve ratio, and open market operations. Further, the macroeconomic indicators include inflation, liquidity, national foreign exchange value, and eco-nomic growth. The results indicated that the most important macroeconomic indi-cators in the country according to economic experts are "national foreign ex-change value" and "inflation". The most important tool for monetary policies of central bank is "foreign exchange rate". Indeed, in order to improve the economic misery index, this bank should take measures to improve the national foreign exchange value, then manage inflation and liquidity, and eventually adjust the banking interest rate

stock tendency to deal with fluctuation limit market-related factors company-related factors
The purpose of this study is to identify the effect of stock tendency to deal with fluctuations and price fluctuation thresholds in creating fluctuations. The statistical population of the present study is the companies listed on the Tehran Stock Exchange that were present in the stock exchange during the years 2005 to 2018. In order to confirm and reject the research hypothesis, Eviews software has been used. In Tehran Stock Exchange, following severe stock price fluctuations, the stock price fluctuation mechanism is used to limit severe stock price fluctuations, and according to certain periods, the range of stock price fluctuations changes and over time the range of fluctuations increases. The basis of trial and error has been determined and in a short period of time there have been many changes in the procedures related to the application of stock price fluctuations, without really measuring the impact of these decisions in the market and investors' reaction to changes in price fluctuations. Findings showed that the number of times each share hits the price fluctuation Yield fluctuation has a significant effect.slow efficiency fluctuations have a significant effect; And in line with the concepts of hyper-reactive theory, it can be justified, that is, after the price reaches the range of fluctuation, the trend reverses and the basis of the fluctuation limit changes; It has changed the volatility of stock returns based on jump and price continuity.

Performance Evaluation Higher moments Banking and insurance Entropy Rolling Window
The optimal portfolio selection is vital for investment. The risk of portfolio Selection and return is the most critical concern of investment companies and private investors. According to modern portfolio theory, diversification should cover the risk. This theory is based on the normality of assets return. Experimental findings indicate that the assets return non-normality. Higher moments are sed to upgrade traditional models with the primary presumption of a normal distribution in recent years. This study uses a higher moment and the entropy for diversification and selects a portfolio given a non-normality assumption. It is essential to use up-to-date information to increase the model's efficiency, and accordingly, we used the rolling window for new price information. For the financial information method, we use the total index return in the last five working days and weigh the shares of the banking, insurance, and leasing industries on the next working day and evaluate this for three years. Python, math, and NumPy libraries were used to analyze the data. The results show that a much higher moment model can provide better portfolio selection results in most cases.

Audit Optimization strategy Assignment Program Development
Accounting processes and their related decisions play an important role in organizing business. If the organization does not have a comprehensive accounting system, managing it will face many problems such as liquidity deficit, tax penalties and so on. Therefore, optimizing accounting processes is essential for managing an organization and improves the company's performance and greater efficiency for business activities. On the other hand, estimates and subjective judgments in preparing financial statements have caused controversy among auditors and owners. In particular, in cases where the standards are not clear, the use of unavoidable judgment and mentality creates ambiguity in financial reporting. This is while the ultimate value of audit activity is in helping the user to determine the quality of the information received. On the other hand, the financial reporting crises of recent years have focused the attention of researchers and professional associations on increasing the reliability of audit reports and reducing negligence.

Labor Demand Fiscal policy Gross domestic product (GDP) Government Expenditures Taxes
The labor market is one of the main markets in the national economy and the equilibrium of the labor market is one of the main concerns of policymakers in every country. Theoretical foundations and empirical studies show that labor demand is the main factor in creating employment and equilibrium in the labor market. This article evaluates the effect of fiscal policy on labor demand in Iran from 1976-2018. During this period, the government has implemented employment-generating projects, tax and insurance exemptions via annual development programs and budgets, and encouraged investment in areas with high unemployment rates. we examined the effect of current government expenditures, government development expenditures, and taxes to study the effect of government fiscal policies on labor demand. In this article, we estimate the dynamic function of labor demand using the ARDL technique. According to the theoretical foundations and empirical studies in the specified function, labor demand is a function of intermittent values and independent variables of Gross Domestic Product (GDP), real wages, capital stock, current government expenditures, government development expenditures, tax revenues, and dummy variables of imposed war and the UN Security Council sanction. The results showed that fiscal policy has not had a positive effect on labor demand in the Iranian labor market in the short and long term.

DSGE Models Monetary Policy Transmission Variance Decomposition
Monetary policy plays an important role in managing the economy, but success in applying this policy requires that the monetary authority understands the process of monetary transmission in the economy. Thus, it is not possible to study the effects of monetary policy on the economy without studying the channels of monetary policy transmission. Therefore, in this paper, the effect of a monetary policy through different channels of monetary policy transmission on inflation and production in terms of time process and extent of effectiveness by using Iran's data over the period of (1960 to 2018) through the method of new Keynesian dynamic stochastic general equilibrium have been investigated. The accuracy of the model was confirmed by analysing the impulse-response functions and calculating the method of moments of the second order. The results of the model show that the effects of monetary policy shock are transmitted through the nominal growth rate of money, the real exchange rate on inflation and production without oil. Also, this effects by increasing the interest rates on bank deposits through the monetary base lead to increase production without oil, and through the monetary base, the exchange rate and the price index of domestic goods reduce inflation.

Bank Credit risk Z score KMV-Merton
This paper examines the credit risk in the Iranian banks during 2008 to 2018 through the Z-score (Accounting based data) and the KMV-Merton (Market based information) models. In the Merton model, equity is equal to call option on underlying value of the bank’s asset. The market value of assets is estimated by share price. The value of assets is then compared to the value of liabilities. Therefore, default when occurs that the market value of assets is less than the book value of debts. so, value of equity becomes negative. In the Z-score model, Return on Assets and Equity to Assets as the numerator and standard deviation of ROA as the denominator are applied. If the mentioned ratios of numerator increase and the denominator decrease, the probability of default decline. As well as, Independent variables are divided into five groups: leverage, management efficiency, profitability quality, financial health, and liquidity. As a result, capital adequacy and profitability have a greater impact on both models. Also, the ANOVA table proves the validity of two models. The value of ROC test in both models is above average (0.5) which are efficient and their efficiency is 99.48% and 92.68%, respectively. Also, in terms of Voung’s test, the KMV is more efficient than the Z-score.

Stock Price Forecast price acceleration Chaos theory
Stock prices are influenced by economic, technological, psychological and geopolitical factors. A review of the literature in this field shows that stochastic approaches, trend analysis and econometrics have been used to demonstrate stock market dynamics and price forecasting. However, these techniques cannot provide a comprehensive overview of market dynamics. Because they ignore the temporal relationship between these factors and are unable to understand their cumulative effects on prices. By integrating chaos theory and continuous data mining based on price acceleration, this study has eliminated these gaps by inventing a new price forecasting method called dynamic stock market recognition simulator and combining two methods: one is delay structures. Or gives time intervals to the data set, and the other is the method of selecting new variables for the market environment. The results showed that the method used can be used to predict the long-term stock price using a small data set with small dimensions.

factor modeling multilevel bulk density cluster fluctuations market fractal structure
Cluster fluctuations and fractal structures are the two important features of space-time correlation in complex financial systems. However, the microscopic mechanism of creating and expanding these two features in financial markets remains challenging. In the present study, using factor-based model design and considering a new interactive mechanism called multilevel convergence, the process of forming cluster fluctuations according to the fractal structure of financial markets is investigated. Virtual agents' trade in different groups according to market performance and their mass behavior is measured at three levels of stock, segment and market. The results, in addition to providing new insights into the space-time correlations of financial markets, show that multilevel convergence is one of the microscopic mechanisms of microstructure of such markets. In other words, multilevel collective behavior is an important factor in the occurrence of cluster fluctuations, price bubbles and market fractals and therefore should be considered in interpreting the concept of risk and defining risk management strategies from this perspective.

Feeling and sentiments volatility EMSI Index GARCH Tehran Stock Exchange
The stock market is one of the main components of the economy, and various factors cause fluctuations in it, one of which is the effect of investors' behavior. Therefore, present study seeks to answer the question of whether the feelings and sentiments of investors might intensify the fluctuations in the Tehran Stock Exchange or not. To answer this question, at first, in order to quantify sentiments, as non-abstract variables, the Equity Market Sentiment Index (EMSI) was used that investors are classified in 5 categories of completely risk-averse, risk-averse, neutral-risk, risk-taking and completely risk-taking. Using GARCHi-in-Mean, results indicate that the sentiments of investors will result in greater fluctuations in the Tehran Stock Exchange. Hence, if fluctuation is considered an indicator of market risk, the excitement associated with an abnormal rise in volumes will increase that risk.

Portfolio optimization gray wolf algorithm Markowitz Model CO-GARCH
Portfolio optimization which means choosing the right stocks based on the highest return and lowest risk, is one of the most effective steps in making optimal investment decisions. Deciding which stock is in a better position compared to other stocks and deserves to be selected and placed in one's investment portfolio and how to allocate capital between these stocks, are complex issues. Theoretically, the issue of choosing a portfolio in the case of minimizing risk in the case of fixed returns can be solved by using mathematical formulas and through a quadratic equation; but in practice and in the real world, due to the large number of choices in capital markets, the mathematical approach used to solve this model, requires extensive calculations and planning. Considering that the behavior of the stock market does not follow a linear pattern, the common linear methods cannot be used and useful in describing this behavior. In this research, portfolio optimization using the gray wolf algorithm and the Markowitz model based on CO-GARCH modeling has been investigated. The statistical population of the current research included the information of 698 companies from the companies admitted to the Tehran Stock Exchange for the period of 2011 to 2020. First, the optimal investment model is presented based on the gray wolf algorithm, and After extracting the optimal model, the efficiency of the gray wolf algorithm is compared with the Markowitz model based on CO-GARCH modeling.

Asset Portfolio Extreme Value Theory Copula Market risk
This paper aims to investigate the portfolio optimization under various market risk conditions using copula dependence and extreme value approaches. According to the modern portfolio theory, diversifying investments in assets that are less correlated with one another allows investors to assume less risk. In many models, asset returns are assumed to follow a normal distribution. Consequently, the linear correlation coefficient explains the dependence between financial assets, and the Markowitz mean-variance optimization model is used to calculate efficient asset portfolios. In this regard, monthly data-driven information on the top 30 companies from 2011 to 2021 was the subject to consideration. In addition, extreme value theory was utilized to model the asset return distribution. Using Gumbel’s copula model, the dependence structure of returns has been analyzed. Distribution tails were modeled utilizing extreme value theory. If the weights of the investment portfolio are allocated according to Gumbel’s copula model, a risk of 2.8% should be considered to obtain a return of 3.2%, according to the obtained results.

Uncertainty theory Uncertain Entropy information theory Multi-objective optimization Uncertain Mean-Entropy Portfolio Optimization (UMEPO)
As we are looking for knowledge of stock future returns in portfolio optimization, we are practically faced with two principal concepts: Uncertainty and Information about variables. This paper attempts to introduce a pragmatic bi-objective investment model based on uncertainty, instead of probability space and information theory, instead of variance and other moments as a risk measure for portfolio optimization. Not only is uncertainty space expected to be more in line with investment theory, but also, applying and learning this approach seems more straightforward and practical for novice investors. The proposed model simultaneously maximizes the uncertain mean of stock returns and minimizes uncertain entropy as a measure of portfolio risk. The uncertain zigzag distribution has been used for variables to avoid the complexity of fitting distributions for data. This uncertain mean-entropy portfolio optimization (UMEPO) has been solved by three meta-heuristic methods of multi-objective optimization: NSGA-II, MOPS, and MOICA. Finally, it was observed that the optimal portfolio obtained from the proposed model has a higher return and a lower entropy as a risk measure compared to the same model in the probability space.

Forecasting error Technical Analysis Indicators NNARX MAPE GMM
It is well documented that using linear models to forecast plenty of financial observations due to their nonlinearity is not satisfactory. Therefore, in this paper, the technical analysis indicators are forecasted using Neural Network Auto-Regressive model with eXogenous inputs (NNARX). Then the effect of different factors (economic, systematic risk, company's properties and corporate governance) on their forecasting error (eRSI, eMA1, eMA2 and eMACD) was investigated. For this purpose, required data were collected using the removal sampling method for 323 companies listed on the Tehran Stock Exchange from 2014-2020. In addition, the mean absolute percentage error (MAPE) was applied to measure the error of forecasting technical analysis indicators. NNARX and dynamic panel data models (GMM) were used to study the effective factors on the error of forecasting technical analysis indicators. Results indicated that the error of forecasting technical analysis indicators is less than 0.1 and has sound accuracy. Also, the company's size and corporate governance indicators didn't significantly affect the error of forecasting technical analysis indicators. In addition, financial leverage doesn't significantly affect eRSI and eMACD but has a significant inverse effect on eMA1 and eMA2. On the other hand, return on assets has a significant inverse effect on eRSI, eMA1, eMA2 and eMACD. Also, economic recession and prosperity, inflation fluctuations, exchange rate fluctuations and systemic risk have a significant positive effect on eRSI, eMA1, eMA2 and eMACD.
