Blog Post: WealthandCapitalMarketsBlog: Lehman Anniversary Musings and Wish Lists

Posted: 20 Sep 2013 12:38 AM PDT

There are a multitude of Lehman Brothers anniversary stories going around, and perspectives can get lost. Hence, I decided to let a week pass before I commented on the fifth anniversary of the infamous collapse of Lehman. I promise to make these points short (and hopefully sweet).read more...

Published / Preprint: Hedging under an expected loss constraint with small transaction costs. (arXiv:1309.4916v1 [q-fin.PM])

Posted: 19 Sep 2013 05:38 PM PDT

We consider the problem of option hedging in a market with proportional transaction costs. Since super-replication is very costly in such markets, we replace perfect hedging with an expected loss constraint. Asymptotic analysis for small transactions is used to obtain a tractable model. A general expansion theory is developed using the dynamic programming approach. Explicit formulae are also...

Published / Preprint: A Pre-Trade Algorithmic Trading Model under Given Volume Measures and Generic Price Dynamics (GVM-GPD). (arXiv:1309.5046v1 [q-fin.TR])

Posted: 19 Sep 2013 05:38 PM PDT

We make several improvements to the mean-variance framework for optimal pre-trade algorithmic execution, by working with volume measures and generic price dynamics. Volume measures are the continuum analogies for discrete volume profiles commonly implemented in the execution industry. Execution then becomes an absolutely continuous measure over such a measure space, and its Radon-Nikodym...

Published / Preprint: Non-linear dependences in finance. (arXiv:1309.5073v1 [q-fin.ST])

Posted: 19 Sep 2013 05:37 PM PDT

The thesis is composed of three parts. Part I introduces the mathematical and statistical tools that are relevant for the study of dependences, as well as statistical tests of Goodness-of-fit for empirical probability distributions. I propose two extensions of usual tests when dependence is present in the sample data and when observations have a fat-tailed distribution. The financial content of...

Blog Post: Falkenblog: Historical CBO Budget Projection Highlights Bias

Posted: 17 Sep 2013 05:46 PM PDT

Recently the CBO issued its annual budget projection, and it's pretty benign for the next decade, then climbs at a pretty measured pace.Yet, note that in the last recession our debt relative to GDP doubled.  Given that economists still don't have a good model for predicting business cycles let alone avoiding recessions, we can expect more of them. I think the odds that we elect a modern-day...

Published / Preprint: Trade integration and trade imbalances in the European Union: a network perspective. (arXiv:1309.4156v1 [physics.soc-ph])

Posted: 17 Sep 2013 05:38 PM PDT

We study the ever more integrated and ever more unbalanced trade relationships between European countries. To better capture the complexity of economic networks, we propose two global measures that assess the trade integration and the trade imbalances of the European countries. These measures are the network (or indirect) counterparts to traditional (or direct) measures such as the trade-to-GDP...
