We examine the economic behavior of the regret-averse firm under price uncertainty. We show that the global and … marginal effects of price uncertainty on production are both positive (negative) when regret aversion prevails if the random …

Our study examines the behavior of a risk-averse investor who faces two sources of uncertainty: a random asset price … and inflation risk. Both sources of uncertainty make it difficult to stabilize consumption over time. However, investors …

The prospect theory is one of the most popular decision-making theories. It is based on the S-shaped utility function, unlike the von Neumann and Morgenstern (NM) theory, which is based on the concave utility function. The S-shape brings in mathematical challenges: simple extensions and...

We study the impact of exchange rate risk upon export production within an emerging economy lacking in currency forward markets. However there exists a financial asset whose price is correlated with the relevant foreign currency. We present conditions under which export production is stimulated...
