Systemic crises can largely affect asset allocations due to the rapid deterioration of the risk-return trade-off. We investigate the effects of systemic crises, interpreted as global simultaneous shocks to financial markets, by introducing an investor adopting a crisis ignorant or crisis...

Our analysis takes the perspective of an equity fund manager who seeks a potential safe haven asset to protect her portfolio during market downturns. We employ a regime-switching framework, within which we separate common and idiosyncratic shocks, to assess the suitability of gold, 10-year and...

We study the impact of financial contagion on the dynamic asset allocation problem of a CRRA investor facing an incomplete market with two risky assets. We apply a Markov chain regime-switching framework with state-dependent jump intensities, diffusion volatilities and diffusion correlations....

This study investigates the cross-market interdependence among Asia-Pacific countries through dynamic herding spillover by using the structural change model of Bai and Perron (1998, 2003) from 2007-2022. The countries selected for the study are China, Japan, South Korea, India, the US, and...

We propose a simple non-equilibrium model of a financial market as an open system with a possible exchange of money with an outside world and market frictions (trade impacts) incorporated into asset price dynamics via a feedback mechanism. Using a linear market impact model, this produces a...

This article has studied several fluctuations in the Iranian currency market and multiple turmoils in the economy that have not only wiped out Iranians private savings but also affected financial market activists to provide a better understanding of fluctuations' movement between markets. To...

An investor with constant relative risk aversion trades a safe and several risky assets with constant investment opportunities. For a small fixed transaction cost, levied on each trade regardless of its size, we explicitly determine the leading-order corrections to the frictionless value...

We discuss risk measures representing the minimum amount of capital a financial institution needs to raise and invest in a pre-specified eligible asset to ensure it is adequately capitalized. Most of the literature has focused on cash-additive risk measures, for which the eligible asset is a...

This paper is concerned with a finite-horizon optimal investment and consumption problem in continuous-time regime-switching models. The market consists of one bond and n ≥ 1 correlated stocks. An investor distributes his/her wealth among these assets and consumes at a non-negative rate. The...
