Rational trader risk

Kondor, Peter - London School of Economics (LSE) - 2004

Allowing for a richer information structure than usual, we show that rational traders’ calculation with short-term price fluctuations may heavily influence their behaviour even if the interim price is not influenced by non-rational agents i.e. there is no noise trader risk. Instead, traders...

Liquidity Risk and the Dynamics of Arbitrage Capital

Kondor, Péter; Vayanos, Dimitri - C.E.P.R. Discussion Papers - 2014

We develop a dynamic model of liquidity provision, in which hedgers can trade multiple risky assets with arbitrageurs. We compute the equilibrium in closed form when arbitrageurs' utility over consumption is logarithmic or risk-neutral with a non-negativity constraint. Liquidity is increasing in...

Simulated nonparametric estimation of dynamic models with applications to finance

Altissimo, Filippo; Mele, Antonio - London School of Economics (LSE) - 2005

This paper introduces a new class of parameter estimators for dynamic models, called Simulated Nonparametric Estimators (SNE). The SNE minimizes appropriate distances between nonparametric joint (or conditional) densities estimated from sample data and nonparametric joint (or conditional)...

Can rare events explain the equity premium puzzle?

Julliard, Christian; Ghosh, Anisha - London School of Economics (LSE) - 2008

Probably not. First, allowing the probabilities attached to the states of the economy to differ from their sample frequencies, the Consumption-CAPM is still rejected by the data and requires a very high level of Relative Risk Aversion(RRA) in order to rationalize the stock market risk premium....

Asset Prices and Institutional Investors

Basak, Suleyman; Pavlova, Anna - C.E.P.R. Discussion Papers - 2012

Empirical evidence indicates that trades by institutional investors have sizable effects on asset prices, generating phenomena such as index effects, asset-class effects and others. It is difficult to explain such phenomena within standard representative-agent asset pricing models. In this...

Providing financial education: a general equilibrium approach

Padula, Mario; Pettinicchi, Yuri - C.E.P.R. Discussion Papers - 2013

Since the early 2000s, the importance of financial literacy for safe financial behaviors has increased in public debate and has been the motivation for several national and international institutions to launch and promote financial education initiatives. Although discussion on the effects of...

Asset Pricing with Adaptive Learning

Carceles-Poveda, Eva; Giannitsarou, Chryssi - C.E.P.R. Discussion Papers - 2007

We study the extent to which self-referential adaptive learning can explain stylized asset pricing facts in a general equilibrium framework. In particular, we analyze the effects of recursive least squares and constant gain algorithms in a production economy and a Lucas type endowment economy....
