We investigate empirically how industrialized countries and U.S. states share consumption risk at horizons between one and thirty years. U.S. federal states share about 50 percent of their permanent idiosyncratic risk through cross-state capital income flows. While insurance against transitory...

Empirical proxies of the aggregate consumption-wealth ratio in terms of a cointegrating relationship between consumption (c), asset wealth (a) and labour income (y), commonly referred to as cay-residuals, play an important role in recent empirical research in macroeconomics and finance. This...
