We quantify the capital shortfall that results from a global financial crisis by using a macro-finance dynamic stochastic general equilibrium model that captures the interactions between the financial and real sectors of the economy. We show that a crisis similar to that observed in 2008...

Third, imposing negative rates on all central bank reserves causes banks …. Together with increased mortgage margins and fee income, the asset replacement preserves profits, but increases financial …

We establish the existence and characterization of a primal and a dual facelift - discontinuity of the value function at the terminal time - for utility maximization in incomplete semimartingale-driven financial markets. Unlike in the lower- and upper-hedging problems, and somewhat unexpectedly,...
