Extensions of expected utility theory are sensitive to the tail behavior of the portfolio return distribution and may not be approximated reliably through higher-order moment expansions. We develop a novel approach for model risk assessment based on a projection method and apply it to portfolio...

We develop a novel class of time-changed Lévy models which are tractable and readily applicable, capture the leverage effect, and exhibit pure jump processes with finite or infinite activity. Our models feature four nested processes reflecting market, volatility and jump risks, and observation...
