Asset pricing with concentrated ownership of capital

Lansing, Kevin J. - Norges Bank - 2011

This paper investigates how concentrated ownership of capital influences the pricing of risky assets in a production economy. The model is designed to approximate the skewed distribution of wealth and income in U.S. data. I show that concentrated ownership significantly magnifies the equity risk...

The risk components of liquidity

Chollete, Lorán; Næs, Randi; Skjeltorp, Johannes A. - Norges Bank - 2008

Does liquidity risk differ depending on our choice of liquidity proxy? Unlike literature that considers common liquidity variation, we focus on identifying different components of liquidity, statistically and economically, using more than a decade of US transaction data. We identify three main...

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)...

House prices, credit growth, and excess volatility: Implications for monetary and macroprudential policy

Gelain, Paolo; Lansing, Kevin J.; Mendicino, Caterina - Norges Bank - 2012

Progress on the question of whether policymakers should respond directly to financial variables requires a realistic economic model that captures the links between asset prices, credit expansion, and real economic activity. Standard DSGE models with fully-rational expectations have difficulty...

House prices, expectations, and time-varying fundamentals

Gelain, Paolo; Lansing, Kevin J. - Norges Bank - 2013

We investigate the behavior of the equilibrium price-rent ratio for housing in a simple Lucas-type asset pricing model. We allow for time-varying risk aversion (via external habit formation) and time-varying persistence and volatility in the stochastic process for rent growth, consistent with...

Inference, arbitrage, and asset price volatility

Adrian, Tobias - Federal Reserve Bank of New York - 2004

This paper models the impact of arbitrageurs on stock prices when arbitrageurs are uncertain about the drift of the dividend process of a risky asset. Under perfect information, the presence of risk-neutral arbitrageurs unambiguously reduces the volatility of asset returns. When arbitrageurs are...
