The paper deals with maritime risk, which we consider important, no doubt, for ship-owners acting in volatile markets. Traditionally, risk is measured by "standard deviation". Other risk measures like "excess kurtosis", "excess skewness", "long-term dependence" and the "catastrophe propensity"...

This paper investigates experimentally whether risk attitudes are stable across social contexts. In particular, it focuses on situations where some resource (for instance, a position, decision power, a bonus) has to be allocated between two parties: the decision maker can either opt for sharing...

This paper proposes a simple analysis for examining an agent's optimal decisions in a principal-agency problem. Unlike the standard approach, the target firm's expected return and risk are modeled as a parametric curve in terms of a critical business decision. A general condition is derived for...

This article focuses on the computation of VaR and CTE. It provides a very accurate and fast method, based on Fourier analysis and following Boyarchenko and Levendorskii (2000). Once the characteristic function of a marginal law is known, the computation of VaR or CTE is performed using a Fast...

This paper extends decision making under risk and uncertainty to group theory via representations of invariant behavioural space for prospect theory. First, we predict that canonical specifications for value functions, probability weighting functions, and stochastic choice maps are homomorphic....

This paper studies consumption and labor supply in a model where agents have partial insurance and face risk and initial heterogeneity in wages and preferences. Equilibrium allocations and variances and covariances of wages, hours and consumption are solved for analytically. We prove that all...

This paper presents opportunities for applying von Neumann – Morgenstern utility function as an instrument for choosing an alternative to overcome crisis of the organization. Choice between fuzzy triangular alternatives by means of definite (crisp) von Neumann – Morgenstern utility function...

Subdiffusive processes can be used in finance to explicitly accommodate the presence of random waiting times between trades or "duration", which in turn allows the modelling of price staleness effects. Option pricing models based on subdiffusions are incomplete, as they naturally account for the...

Handling risk factors in the context of a multi-asset risk parity portfolio allocation has created increased interest in recent literature. When allocating along risk factors through principal components, one major problem that persists is the potential existence of leverage or short positions...
