As early as 1934 Graham and Dodd conjectured that excess returns from value investment originate from a tendency of markets to converge towards fundamental values. This paper confirms their insights theoretically within the evolutionary finance model of Evstigneev, Hens, and Schenk-Hopp (2006)...

Banking regulators often practice forbearance and ambiguity in insolvency resolutions. The paperexamines the effects of regulatory forbearance and ambiguity in a context of allocational efficiency.Bailouts, liquidations and their stochastic policy mix lead to suboptimal allocations if banks do...

Financial intermediaries may increase economic efficiency through intertemporal risk smoothing.However without an adequate regulation, intermediation may fail to do this. This paper studiesthe effects of a production shock in a closed economy and compares abilities of market-based andbank-based...

We study an equilibrium asset pricing model with several Lucas (1978) trees subject toevent risk, that is, the possibility that trees experience unexpected disasters. We exploit themarket clearing mechanism, in the presence of multiple positive net supply assets, to showthat the implications of...

Recent studies have found unmeasured intangible capital to be large and important. In this paper we observe that by nature intangible capital is also very different from physical capital. We find it plausible to argue that the accumulation process for intangible capital differs significantly...

In production economies, the extent to which non-equilibria are blocked dependson specific rules that allocate authority among shareholders, because a blocking coalition’sresources are affected by the firms it jointly owns with outsiders. Based on anotion of stochastic blocking, we extend...

Was the increase in income inequality in the US due to permanent shocks or merely to anincrease in the variance of transitory shocks? The implications for consumption and welfaredepend crucially on the answer to this question. We use CEX repeated cross-section data onconsumption and income to...

This paper analyzes the impact of limited enforceable international loanson international risk sharing and trade fluctuations in a two-country two-good endowment economy. Our specification of the punishment threat allowsthe exclusion from trade to last only finitely many periods and...

We develop a method that allows one to compute incomplete-market equilibria routinely forMarkovian equilibria (when they exist). The main difficulty to be overcome arises from the setof state variables. There are, of course, exogenous state variables driving the economy but, in anincomplete...

This paper develops a method to compute the equilibrium correspondence for exchangeeconomies with semi-algebraic preferences. Given a class of semi-algebraic exchange economiesparameterized by individual endowments and possibly other exogenous variables such as prefer-ence parameters or asset...
