| Published / Preprint: HOPE, FEAR, AND ASPIRATIONS Posted: 18 Jun 2013 04:39 AM PDT We propose a rankâdependent portfolio choice model in continuous time that captures the role in decision making of three emotions: hope, fear, and aspirations. Hope and fear are modeled through an inverseâS shaped probability weighting function and aspirations through a probabilistic constraint. By employing the recently developed approach of quantile formulation, we solve the portfolio... Visit MoneyScience for the Complete Article. |
| Posted: 18 Jun 2013 04:39 AM PDT We propose a framework to study optimal trading policies in a oneâtick pro rata limit order book, as typically arises in shortâterm interest rate futures contracts. The highâfrequency trader chooses to post either market orders or limit orders, which are represented, respectively, by impulse controls and regular controls. We discuss the consequences of the two main features of this... Visit MoneyScience for the Complete Article. |
| Published / Preprint: BESSEL PROCESSES, STOCHASTIC VOLATILITY, AND TIMER OPTIONS Posted: 18 Jun 2013 04:39 AM PDT Motivated by analytical valuation of timer options (an important innovation in realized varianceâbased derivatives), we explore their novel mathematical connection with stochastic volatility and Bessel processes (with constant drift). Under the Heston (1993) stochastic volatility model, we formulate the problem through a firstâpassage time problem on realized variance, and generalize the...

| Posted: 18 Jun 2013 04:39 AM PDT We prove a version of First Fundamental Theorem of Asset Pricing under transaction costs for discreteâtime markets with dividendâpaying securities. Specifically, we show that the noâarbitrage condition under the efficient friction assumption is equivalent to the existence of a riskâneutral measure. We derive dual representations for the superhedging ask and subhedging bid price processes... Visit MoneyScience for the Complete Article. |
| Published / Preprint: PORTFOLIO LIQUIDATION IN DARK POOLS IN CONTINUOUS TIME Posted: 18 Jun 2013 04:39 AM PDT We consider an illiquid financial market where a risk averse investor has to liquidate a portfolio within a finite time horizon [0, T] and can trade continuously at a traditional exchange (the âprimary venueâ) and in a dark pool. At the primary venue, trading yields a linear price impact. In the dark pool, no price impact costs arise but order execution is uncertain, modeled by a...

| Posted: 18 Jun 2013 04:39 AM PDT The problem of robust utility maximization in an incomplete market with volatility uncertainty is considered, in the sense that the volatility of the market is only assumed to lie between two given bounds. The set of all possible models (probability measures) considered here is nondominated. We propose studying this problem in the framework of secondâorder backward stochastic differential...

| Posted: 17 Jun 2013 05:39 PM PDT I studied the convergence of regional house prices to national prices in USA by analyzing time-series of house price indices of 9 Census Divisions. I found the evidence of the convergence in some parts of the country using asymmetric unit root tests. The fact that the evidence of the convergence is not present in large parts of the country raises an issue of execution and interpretation of... Visit MoneyScience for the Complete Article. |
| Posted: 17 Jun 2013 05:39 PM PDT This article derives prognostic expressions for the evolution of globally aggregated economic wealth, productivity, inflation, technological change, innovation and growth. The approach is to treat civilization as an open, non-equilibrium thermodynamic system that dissipates energy and diffuses matter in order to sustain existing circulations and to further its material growth. Appealing to a... Visit MoneyScience for the Complete Article. |
| Posted: 17 Jun 2013 05:39 PM PDT In spite of the growing theoretical literature on cascades of failures in interbank lending networks, empirical results seem to suggest that networks of direct exposures are not the major channel of financial contagion. In this paper we show that networks of interbank exposures can however significantly amplify contagion due to overlapping portfolios. To illustrate this point, we consider the...

| Published / Preprint: From Text to Bank Interrelation Maps. (arXiv:1306.3856v1 [q-fin.RM]) Posted: 17 Jun 2013 05:39 PM PDT In the wake of the ongoing global financial crisis, interdependencies among banks have come into focus in trying to assess systemic risk. To date, such analysis has largely been based on numerical data. By contrast, this study attempts to gain further insight into bank interconnections by tapping into financial discussion. Co-mentions of bank names are turned into a network, which can be... Visit MoneyScience for the Complete Article. |
| Posted: 17 Jun 2013 05:39 PM PDT In this note we apply the recently established Wiener-Hopf Monte Carlo (WHMC) simulation technique for Levy processes from Kuznetsov et al. [17] to path functionals, in particular first passage times, overshoots, undershoots and the last maximum before the passage time. Such functionals have many applications, for instance in finance (the pricing of exotic options in a Levy model) and insurance... Visit MoneyScience for the Complete Article. |
