We prove the existence of Pareto optimal allocations within sets of acceptable allocations when decision makers have probabilistic sophisticated variational preferences defined on random endowments in L1. Pareto optimal allocations, variational preferences, probabilistic sophistication,...

A new class of risk measures called cash sub-additive risk measures is introduced to assess the risk of future financial, nonfinancial and insurance positions. The debated cash additive axiom is relaxed into the cash sub-additive axiom to preserve the original difference between the numeraire of...
