The international CAPM (ICAPM) extends the classical CAPM by adding exchange rate risks as priced factors. In the literature, both conditional and unconditional tests confirm the significance of exchange rate risk. However, typical conditional tests of the ICAPM include few instruments with...

This paper analyzes a general equilibrium exchange economy with a continuum of agents who have "catching up with the Joneses" preferences and differ with respect to the curvature of their utility functions and - as a peculiarity - the impact of news about uncertainty. The dynamic redistribution...

This paper proposes a pure-exchange economy with three key ingredients: habit formation, stochastic moments of aggregate consumption, and a small degree of heterogeneity in risk aversion consistent with empirical data. We obtain closed formulas for many equilibrium quantities, including the...
