This paper presents an equilibrium model in a pure exchange economywhen investors have three possible sources of heterogeneity. Investorsmay differ in their beliefs, in their level of risk aversion andin their time preference rate. We study the impact of investors heterogeneityon equilibrium...

We provide a representation for the nonmyopic optimal portfolio of an agentconsuming only at the terminal horizon when the single state variable follows ageneral diusion process and the market consists of one risky asset and a risk-freeasset. The key term of our representation is a new object...

We study the existence of dynamic equilibria with endogenously complete markets incontinuous-time, heterogenous agents economies driven by diusion processes. Ourmain results show that under appropriate conditions on the transition density ofthe state variables, market completeness can be deduced...

We solve the problem of optimal securitization for an issuer facing heterogeneous investorswith arbitrary time and risk preferences. We show that the optimal securitizationis characterized by multiple nonlinear tranches, and each investor gets a portfolio of thesetranches. In particular, when...

We study survival, price impact and portfolio impact in heterogeneouseconomies. We show that, under the equilibrium risk-neutral measure,long-run price impact is in fact equivalent to survival, whereas longrunportfolio impact is equivalent to survival under an agent-specic,wealth-forward...

We extend the Lucas asset pricing tree economy to a heterogeneous population.Perturbative methods are applied to explicitly calculate the secondorder response of asset returns to heterogeneity. We discover thatthere exists a unique "best homogeneous approximation" to a weakly...

We prove that, in a heterogeneous economy with scale invariantutilities, the yield of a long term bond is determined by the agent with maximalexpected marginal utility.We also prove that the same result holds for the longterm forward rates.Furthermore, we apply Cramer’s large deviations...

We establish universal bounds for asset prices in heterogeneouscomplete market economies with scale invariant preferences. Namely, for eachagent in the economy we consider an artificial homogeneous economy, popu-lated solely by this agent and calculate the ”homogeneous” price of an asset...

We develop an equilibrium lifecycle model of education, marriage and labor supply and consumption in a transferable utility context. Individuals start by choosing their investments in education anticipating returns in the marriage market and the labor market. They then match based on the...
