Arrow-Debreu state preference approach to derivatives pricing is embedded into decision theoretical framework. Derivatives prices are considered as decision variables. Axiomatic decision theory, concerned with the attitude toward uncertainty and existence of closed in *-weak topology sets of...

A more ambiguous (I) act … makes an ambiguity averse decision maker (DM) worse off but does not affect the welfare of an ambiguity neutral DM. A more … ambiguous (II) act adversely affects a more ambiguity averse DM more, as measured by the compensation they require to switch …

This paper explicitly solves, in closed form, the optimal consumption and port folio choice for an ambiguity averse … martingale method to solve the dynamic optimization problem in continuous time. I find that ambiguity can decrease the optimal … of hedging demand in the optimal portfolio allocation. In addition, ambiguity also increases riskless savings. …
