Liquidity providers often learn information about an asset from prices of other assets. We show that this generates a … self-reinforcing positive relationship between price informativeness and liquidity.

In classical contagion models, default systems are Markovian conditionally on the observation of their stochastic environment, with interacting intensities. This necessitates that the environment evolves autonomously and is not influenced by the history of the default events. We extend the...

Financial crises are often characterized by sharp reductions in liquidity followed by cascades of falling prices …. Researchers are making progress in work to understand the levels of liquidity on a daily basis, but understanding the … vulnerability of liquidity to market shocks remains a challenge. We develop an agent-based model with the objective of evaluating …
