Dynamic stochastic general equilibrium models with ex-post heterogeneity due to idiosyncratic risk have to be solved numerically. This is a nontrivial task as the cross-sectional distribution of endogenous variables becomes an element of the state space due to aggregate risk. Existing global...

Mit dem risikowirtschaftlichen Modell verfolgen die Autoren das Ziel, den gesamtwirtschaftlichen Zusammenhang zwischen Unternehmensfinanzierung, Kapitalstockbildung, Einkommensbildung und Beschäftigung herauszuarbeiten. Ausgehend von der Frage, unter welchen Bedingungen die Kapitalstruktur...

This paper analyzes and computes the equilibria of economies with large numbers of heterogeneous agents who have different asset trading technologies, preferences, and beliefs. We illustrate the value of our method by using it to evaluate the implications of these heterogeneities through several...

In this paper, I study the existence and uniqueness of recursive equilibria in economies with aggregate and idiosyncratic risk. Rather than relying on compactness to establish existence, I exploit the monotonicity property of the equilibrium model and rely on arguments from convex analysis. This...
