This paper studies conditions under which the price of an asset is uniquely determined by its fundamental value (i.e., no bubbles can arise) in Lucas-type asset pricing models with unbounded utility. After discussing Gilles and LeRoy's (1992) example, we construct an example of a two-period,...

This paper studies necessity of transversality conditions for the continuous time, reduced form model. By generalizing Benveniste and Scheinkman's (1982) quot;envelopequot; condition and Michel's (1990) version of the squeezing argument, we show a generalization of Michel's (1990, Theorem 1)...

This paper strives to appraise -- in terms of contributions to economic development -- Japan's postwar financial system, a system that has been exposed to a variety of environmental changes over time including globalization. Having been designed to foster growth, the postwar financial system did...

Why is Japan a good case study to help Europe overcome the economic and �nancial crisis that started more than �ve years ago? What can Japan learn from Europe's experience? Japan and the EU are both open economies with signi�cant trade and �nancial links; both face in many...

In this paper, we consider an iteration process of Halpern’s type for finding a common element of the set of solutions of an equilibrium problem and the set of fixed points for a quasi-nonexpansive mapping with perturbation in a Hilbert space and then prove a strong convergence theorem for...

This paper looks at Japan's experience in transforming its financial system. While the country is considered a model of successful Asian economic development, it has encountered many difficulties as introducing market economy. During the 1960s and 1970s, Japan experienced high economic growth,...
