This study extends the multi-asset model of Huang et al. (2017), who examine only two types of investors, by adding a new investor type with partial information on the correlation coefficient and re-explores the limited participation phenomenon under correlation ambiguity. We investigate whether...

This paper investigates the implication of correlation ambiguity to investor behavior, asset pricing and issuers' listing choices from a market microstructure perspective. We introduce two markets to a multi-asset model: Market A is transparent and Market B is opaque, or Market A with low and...

This study presents an investment and consumption model with two ambiguityaverse comparative agents whose utility depends on the opponent’s consumption. In Nash equilibrium, social comparison induces more ambiguous agents to invest and consume more aggressively, decreasing the magnitude...

This study examines the ways in which the heterogeneity of elevation or curvature in probability weighting affects investors’ market participation and the equity premium. We analyze the rank-dependence utility with the generalized Wang transform (GWT) as an inverse S-shaped weighting function....

This paper addresses whether institutionalization could improve market efficiency by differentiating the sector size effect and the market concentration effect and studies their respective impacts on investors' market participation and asset pricing. We develop a theoretical model under...

This paper studies arbitrage-free conditions for multiperiod asset pricing in frictional financial markets with proportional transaction costs. We consider the Euclidean space for weakly arbitrage-free security markets and strongly arbitrage-free security markets, and establish the weakly...
