In this paper, based on Acharya and Pedersen's overlapping generation model, we show that liquidity risk could influence the market risk forecasting through at least two ways. Then we argue that traditional liquidity adjusted VaR measure, the simply adding of the two risk measure, would...

This study uncovers the ability of liquid stocks to generate significant higher risk-adjusted portfolio returns than their illiquid counterparts. Using U.S. stocks in the period of 01/1990 to 09/2015, we show that a significant negative illiquidity premium can be obtained when accounting for a...

Liquidity is a risk factor of primary relevance that can significantly affect the asset allocation decisions of investors. In this paper, we introduce the concept of portfolio staleness and propose a simple framework to manage portfolio liquidity, intended as the cost needed to liquidate the...

We explore theoretically and empirically the relationship between firm productivity and liquidity management in the presence of financial frictions. We build a dynamic investment model and show that, counter to basic economic intuition, more productive firms could demand less capital assets and...

How should shareholders make dividend and recapitalization policies for a bank when there exists execution delay and fix costs on recapitalizations? What is the optimal time and magnitude of recapitalization if the magnitude of recapitalization is pre-determined at the time of...

We develop a novel approach to the bond portfolio optimization in insurance companies that are subject to the new Solvency II regulation. The regulatory efficient portfolios are determined using the Non-dominated Sorting Genetic Algorithm II (NSGA-II). The characteristics of the estimated...

Liquidity has its systemic aspect that is frequently neglected in research and risk management applications. We build a model that focuses on systemic aspects of liquidity and its links with solvency conditions accounting for pertinent interactions between market participants in an agent-based...
