We consider a model in which all investment opportunities are described in terms of cash flows. We don't assume that there is a numeacute;raire, the time horizon is not supposed to be finite, the investment opportunities are not specifically related to the buying and selling of securities on a...

The problem of fair pricing of contingent claims is well understood in the context of an arbitrage free, complete financial market, with perfect information. But in the more realistic context of an incomplete market or with imperfect information, the arbitrage approach does not enable us to...

We consider a model in which any investment opportunity is described in terms of cash flows. We don't assume that there is a numeraire, enabling investors to transfer wealth through time; the time horizon is not supposed to be finite and the investment opportunities are not specifically related...

In securities markets, the characterization of the absence of arbitrage by the existence of state price deflators is generally obtained through the use of the Kreps-Yan theorem.This paper deals with the validity of this theorem (see Kreps, 1981, and Yan, 1980) in a general framework. More...

In this paper, we study securities market models with fixed costs. We characterize the absence of arbitrage opportunities and we provide fair pricing rules. We then apply these results to extend some popular interest rate and option pricing models, which present arbitrage opportunities in the...

This paper is a generalization of Calvet et al. (2002) to a dynamic setting. We propose a method to aggregate heterogeneous individual probability beliefs, in dynamic and complete asset markets, into a single consensus probability belief. This consensus probability belief, if commonly shared by...

Under a comonotonicity assumption between aggregate dividends and the market portfolio, the CCAPM formula becomes more tractable and more easily testable. In this paper, we provide theoretical justifications for such an assumption

Les divergences des analystes dans leurs preacute;visions des reacute;sultats futurs des entreprises est un fait. De maniegrave;re plus geacute;neacute;rale, la divergence d'opinion des investisseurs quant agrave; l'eacute;volution future des cours boursiers ou des fondamentaux de l'eacute;conomie est...

The aim of the paper is to analyze the impact of heterogeneous beliefs in an otherwise standard competitive complete markets discrete time economy. The construction of a consensus belief, as well as a consensus consumer are shown to be valid modulo a predictable aggregation bias, which takes the...
