We model investors that take into account the amount of public good that firms produce (e.g., by reducing carbon emissions) when making their portfolio allocation. In an equilibrium asset pricing model with production and public goods provision, we find that environmentally conscious investors...

The rise of sustainable investing comes coupled with the question of what impact it has. We assume that firms can contribute to the public good, e.g., by reducing carbon emissions, and investors may take into account the amount of public good that firms produce when making their investment...

The central ingredient of empirical asset pricing tests is the (expected) risk premium. However, heterogeneity in expectations makes aggregation of beliefs a non-trivial task. This paper proposes a novel approach to estimate subjective bond risk premia based on the historical accuracy of...

This paper investigates the asset pricing implications of investor disagreement about the likelihood of a systematic disaster. I specify a general equilibrium model with multiple trees and heterogeneous beliefs about rare event risk, to understand how risk-sharing mechanisms affect equity and...

Using a latent variables approach, we estimate the dynamics of dividends and returns in a tractable present-value model with time-varying risks. Expected returns imply a similar return predictability as under homoskedasticity, while expected dividend growth is more persistent and explains a...

This paper documents large micro-heterogeneity and forecasting skill in the cross-section of survey based bond risk premia. We reject informationally constrained rational expectations but show a learning model distorted by sentiment is consistent with the data. Aggregating, we propose a belief...
