first-order approximated solution built by perturbation methods accounts for risk. We show that risk matters economically in … a real business cycle (RBC) model with habit formation and capital adjustment costs and that neglecting risk leads to …

asset prices and corporate default risk. Our model includes two empirically grounded nominal frictions: fixed nominal …

This paper studies the impact of financial sector size and leverage on the business cycle and risk-free rates dynamics …. We develop a general equilibrium model of a productive economy where financial intermediaries provide costly risk … cycle fluctuations, while providing households with a risk-free asset whose real return is pro-cyclical and possibly …

intergenerational inequality aversion and for risk aversion. If growth increases (reduces) intra-generational inequality, the SDR is …

We develop a financial-economic model for carbon pricing with an explicit representation of decision making under risk … specifications. We show that risk associated with high damages in the long term leads to stringent mitigation of carbon dioxide … emissions in the near term. Our results provide insight into how a systematic incorporation of climate-related risk influences …

their individual risk aversion. They choose between a fundamentalist and a trend-following rule to form expectations about … the price of a risky asset. Given their risk aversion, agents make a deterministic trade-off between mean and variance … both in choosing a forecasting heuristic and determining the number of risky assets to buy. Heterogeneous risk preferences …
