"With Covid-19 and other recent crises proving the need to review the state-of-play and implement robust institutional frameworks in the complex, heterogenous and decentralised European supervisory architecture, this insightful book outlines what can be done to innovate the current set-up in the...

In the last few years, the empirical literature has documented that existing correlations between national returns are higher than correlations between the national growth rates of fundamental variables. In this paper we study the ability of intertemporal asset pricing models to explain...

In this paper we have studied the ability of relatively standard equilibrium asset pricing models to explain two important empirical regularities of asset returns extensively documented in the literature: i) returns can be predicted by a set of macro variables; and ii) returns are very volatile....

This paper reconsiders the determination of asset returns in a model with Kreps-Porteus generalized isoelastic preferences where returns appear governed on the basis of Euler equations, by a combination of the two most common measures of risk -- covariance with the market return and covariance...
