This paper considers a model of spatial allocation of investment capital under uncertainty. We demonstrate that the spatial concentration of economic activity depends upon properties of risk preferences deeper than risk aversion. The degree of so-called relative prudence unambiguously decides...

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...

We present a model of risk averse exporting firm subject to liquidity constraints. The firm enters an unbiased futures market to hedge exchange rate risk and may not be able to satisfy high margin calls. Then the firm is forced to prematurely liquidate the futures position. We show that...

This paper examines the interplay between the real and financial decisions of the competitive firm under output price uncertainty. The firm faces additional sources of uncertainty that are aggregated into a background risk. We show that the firm always chooses its optimal debt-equity ratio to...

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 generalizations of NM theory into the prospect theory cannot be frequently achieved …

This paper examines the behavior of a competitive exporting firm that exports to two foreign countries under multiple sources of exchange rate uncertainty. The firm has to cross-hedge its exchange rate risk exposure because there is only a forward market between the domestic currency and one...

We derive a class of utility functions that are equivalent with respect to a well-defined functional form. We apply a general view of constant relative risk aversion to investigate on different equivalence relations. Then we compare our results with standard applications in economics and finance.
