This study estimates liquidity premiums using the recently developed Liu (2006) measure within a multifactor capital asset pricing model (CAPM) including size premiums and a time varying parameter model for the West African emerging market of Nigeria. The evidence suggests that liquidity factors...

Financial basics and intuition stresses the importance of investment horizon for risk management and asset allocation. However, the beta parameter of the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) is invariant to the holding period. Such contradiction is due to the assumption of long-term independence...

La existencia de memoria de largo plazo en las series financieras implica que los retornos de un activo hoy pueden tener incidencia sobre los retornos futuros, incluso más allá del corto plazo. En presencia de dicha memoria el horizonte de inversión elegido puede resultar en diferentes...

The pricing of financial assets, this paper contends, it does not consist only in assessing a technical value from a valuation model and then calibrating such value by looking at the market. In order to sharpen up this complex process we are going to handle, firstly, a valuation procedure that...

This paper describes a model for the valuation of assets on a bank balance sheet with liquidity risk. The new feature of this model is that it explicitly incorporates the funding term of an asset. The inclusion of the funding term is important since it determines the expected liquidation loss....

In this paper, we tackle the Beta anomaly, namely the fact that high-Beta assets tend to be associated with lower risk-adjusted returns than low-Beta assets, and connect it to mutual funds' expectations. We present a model with two types of investors, mutual funds and hedge funds, with...

This paper uses the standard consumption-based asset pricing model with endogenous stochastic discount factor sdf. Maintaining arbitrary return distributions, I add interfirm systemic risk. In contrast to the case without systemic risk, the market and planner allocate capital differently....
