We provide results on the existence and uniqueness of equilibrium in dynamically incomplete financial markets in discrete time. Our framework allows for heterogeneous agents, unspanned random endowments and convex trading constraints. In the special case where all agents have preferences of the...

We consider a full equilibrium model in continuous time comprising a finite number of agents and tradable securities.We show that, if the agents' endowments are spanned by the securities and if the agents have entropic utilities, an equilibrium exists and the agents' optimal trading strategies...

We introduce human traders into an agent based financial market simulation prone to bubbles and crashes. We find that human traders earn lower profits overall than do the simulated agents (robots) but earn higher profits in the most crash-intensive periods. Inexperienced human traders tend to...

I construct a model of over-the-counter (OTC) trading to study equilibrium allocation properties under bilateral clearing (BC) and central counterparty (CCP) clearing of OTC derivatives. I show how CCP mutualizes individual counterparty exposures and prevents massive equilibrium defaults. I...
