Equity risk premiums are a central component of every risk and return model in finance and are a key input into estimating costs of equity and capital in both corporate finance and valuation. Given their importance, it is surprising how haphazard the estimation of equity risk premiums remains in...

This paper discusses the notion of martingale measures in the context of the pricing and hedging of perfectly collateralized derivatives in discrete time. We define a precise mathematical framework to deal with this paradigm. We then prove the main result of equivalence between absence of...
