alternative with constant risk level implies a higher level of inequality aversion. The experiment was conducted among 211 eight …Inequality aversion and risk aversion are widely assumed features of economic models. But a review of the literature … revealed that inequlity aversion and risk aversion are treated as separate variables. This paper presents exploratory research …

We characterize the investor’s optimal portfolio allocation subject to a budget constraint and a probabilistic VaR constraint in complete markets environments with a finite number of states. The set of feasible portfolios might no longer be connected or convex, while the number of local optima...

It is known from the literature on uncertainty that in cases where individuals express a preference for a high win-probability bet over a bet with high winnings they nevertheless will bid more to obtain the bet with high winnings. We investigate whether a similar phenomenon applies in the...

Using regular variation to define heavy tailed distributions, we show that prominent downside risk measures produce … similar and consistent ranking of heavy tailed risk. Thus regardless of the particular risk measure being used, assets will be …

In this paper we compare overall as well as downside risk measures with respect to the criteria of first and second … order stochastic dominance. While the downside risk measures, with the exception of tail conditional expectation, are … consistent with first order stochastic dominance, overall risk measures are not, even if we restrict ourselves to two …
