We study an equilibrium model with restricted investor participation in which strategic arbitrageurs reap profits by exploiting mispricings across different trading locations. We edogonize the asset structure as the outcome of the security design game played by the arbitrageurs. The equilibrium...

It is known from the literature on uncertainty that in cases where individuals express a preference for a high win-probability bet over a bet with high winnings they nevertheless will bid more to obtain the bet with high winnings. We investigate whether a similar phenomenon applies in the...

This paper extends the model proposed by Goodhart, Sunirand, and Tsomocos (2003, 2004a, b) to an infinite horizon setting. Thus, we are able to assess how the model conforms with the time series data of the U.K. banking system. We conclude that, since the model performs satisfactorily, it can be...

The objective of this paper is to propose a model to assess risk for banks. Its main innovation is to incorporate … endogenous interaction between banks, recognising that the actual risk to which an individual bank is exposed also depends on its … data and therefore can be implemented as a risk assessment tool for financial regulators and central banks. We address the …

assumptions. We accomplish this by relying on the plausible joint frictions of immediacy risk (excution risk) and asset …

Using regular variation to define heavy tailed distributions, we show that prominent downside risk measures produce … similar and consistent ranking of heavy tailed risk. Thus regardless of the particular risk measure being used, assets will be …

In this paper we compare overall as well as downside risk measures with respect to the criteria of first and second … order stochastic dominance. While the downside risk measures, with the exception of tail conditional expectation, are … consistent with first order stochastic dominance, overall risk measures are not, even if we restrict ourselves to two …

alternative with constant risk level implies a higher level of inequality aversion. The experiment was conducted among 211 eight …Inequality aversion and risk aversion are widely assumed features of economic models. But a review of the literature … revealed that inequlity aversion and risk aversion are treated as separate variables. This paper presents exploratory research …
