Gauging foreign (domestic) biases as the deviation of foreign (domestic) investors' actual portfolio allocation of a bond market from the same bond market's weight in global bond market, we investigate the determinants of foreign and domestic investment biases in 41 global bond markets. We find...

We inspect the price volatility before, during, and after financial asset bubbles in order to uncover possible commonalities and check empirically whether volatility might be used as an indicator or an early warning signal of an unsustainable price increase and the associated crash. Some...

This paper presents a rational expectations model of asset prices with rationally inattentive investors that, unlike previous papers, explains both the substantial amount of equity wealth invested domestically and the puzzling time series behavior of the home bias - an initial plateau before...

This paper implements a parsimonious and practical methodology to examine the diversification potential of international equity portfolios. The analysis shows that the Portfolio Diversification Index (Rudin, A.M., and Morgan, J.S., Journal of Portfolio Management [2006]) efficiently replicates a...

We introduce a portfolio friction in a two-country DSGE model where investors face a constant probability to make new portfolio decisions. The friction leads to a more gradual portfolio adjustment to shocks and a weaker portfolio response to changes in expected excess returns. We apply the model...

By allowing for imperfectly informed markets and the role of private information, we offer new insights about observed deviations of portfolio concentrations in domestic relative to foreign risky assets, or "home bias", from what standard finance models predict. Our model ascribes the "bias" to...

There has been controversy between (two-country) theory and the empirics about whether hedging against real exchange … rate fluctuations in the goods market influences foreign equity holdings. This study reconciles the theory with the … exchange rate fluctuations. Further, our theory calls for a country's covariance-variance ratio to be constructed as the sum of …

Purpose - It is crucial to find a better portfolio optimization strategy, considering the cryptocurrencies' asymmetric volatilities. Hence, this research aimed to present dynamic optimization on minimum variance (MVP), equal risk contribution (ERC) and most diversified portfolio (MDP)....

We develop robust models for optimization of the VaR and CVaR risk measures with a minimum expected return constraint under joint ambiguity in distribution, mean returns, and covariance matrix. We formulate models for ellipsoidal, polytopic, and interval ambiguity sets of the means and...
