This paper considers multiple market agents who have distinct distributional opinions about the state price density. Different opinions can be contested on a hypothetical market that trades Arrow-Debreu securities. We focus on the situation when the agents are maximizing logarithmic utility as...

I develop a noisy rational expectations equilibrium model with a continuum of states and a full set of options that render the market complete. I show a major difference in equilibrium behaviour between models with constant absolute risk aversion (CARA) and non-CARA preferences. First, when...

We study the formation of derivative prices in equilibrium between risk-neutral agents with heterogeneous beliefs about the dynamics of the underlying. Under the condition that the derivative cannot be shorted, we prove the existence of a unique equilibrium price and show that it incorporates...

The utility indifference framework has received a lot of attention, because it is based on a utility maximization principle, which is one of the most fundamental principles of economics, for pricing a contingent claim. The price based on utility indifference framework is the maximum or minimum...
