We study in a general perspective the partial equilibrium incentives and the general equilibrium asset pricing implications of Value-at-Risk (VaR) regulation in continuous time economies with intermediate consumption, stochastic opportunity set, and heterogenous attitudes to risk. Our findings...

We apply perturbation methods to solve in closed form a class of robust control problems, implied by Anderson, Hansen and Sargent setting of a preference for robustness. In the constant investment opportunity set case, we obtain closed form power series solutions for the arising robust Bellman...

We present a geometric approach to discrete time multiperiod mean variance portfolio opti-mization that largely simplifies the mathematical analysis and the economic interpretation of such model settings. We show that multiperiod mean variance optimal policies can be decom-posed in an orthogonal...

We propose a new continuous time framework to study asset prices under learning and ambiguity aversion. In a partial information Lucas economy with time additive power utility, a discount for ambiguity arises if and only if the elasticity of intertemporal substitution (EIS) is above one. Then,...

We solve analytically the Merton's problem of an investor with time additive power utility. For general state dynamics, we prove existence of two power series representations of the relevant optimal policies and value functions, which hold for all admissible risk aversion parameters. We...

We present a geometric approach to discrete time multiperiod mean variance portfolio optimization that largely simplifies the mathematical analysis and the economic interpretation of such model settings. We show that multiperiod mean variance optimal policies can be decomposed in an orthogonal...

We introduce the notion of a convex measure of risk, an extension of the concept of a coherent risk measure defined in Artzner et al. (1999), and we prove a corresponding extension of the representation theorem in terms of probability measures on the underlying space of scenarios. As a case...

Este artículo emplea la teoría del portafolio de Harry Markowitz paraconstruir dos portafolios, cada uno compuesto por cinco acciones de laBolsa de Valores de Colombia. Estos portafolios se elaboran pensandoen dos inversionistas con aversión al riesgo, pero con distinto nivelde tolerancia al...

This paper makes use of perturbation theory to solve analytically a class of robust control problems implied by Anderson, Hansen and Sargent (2000) (AHS (2000)) model of a preference for robustness. For the constant opportunity set model, we provide (i) asymptotic expressions that characterize...

The topics of Economic Capital modelling, reverse stress testing and credit limits are inextricably intertwined as they all focus on exceptional loss events. In this paper, we use the KVA framework in to frame these three topics within a single unified approach. We propose setting credit limits...
