I construct and analyze an example of an economy with production and money under conditions of uncertainty, asymmetric information, and an incomplete asset market. For alternative scenarios, which differ in the information available to consumers and firms, I compute the equilibrium prices and...

I construct and analyse an example of an economy with production and money under conditions of uncertainty, assymetric information, and an incomplete asset market. For alternative scenarios, which differ in the information available to consumers and firms, I compute the equilibrium prices and...

The coordinating role of a redundant security is its role in markets with transaction costs to coordinate different consumers’ security demands so as to clear all security markets and, simultaneously, attain a given commodity allocation. The purpose of this paper is to prove that, under some...

Individuals exchange contracts for the delivery of commodities in competitive markets and, simultaneously, act strategically; actions affect utilities across individuals directly or through the payoffs of contracts. This encompasses economies with asymmetric information, Nash-Walras equilibria...

The present note highlights the seminal contributions of Diamond, Drèze and Radner towards the integration of financial markets into general equilibrium modeling.

We reconsider the well-known result of Arrow (1953) that the set of equilibria of an economy with complete markets coincides with the one of an economy with sequentially complete markets. We show by means of two examples that this result is problematic when there exist multiple equilibrium...
