We derive the conditions for the optimal portfolio choice within a constant relative risk aversion type of utility function considering alternative probability distributions that are able to capture the asymmetric and leptokurtic features of asset returns. We illustrate the role — beyond risk...

One of Keynes’ core issues in his liquidity preference theory is how fundamental uncertainty affects the propensity to hold money as a liquid asset. The paper critically assesses various formal representations of fundamental uncertainty and provides an argument for a more bounded rational...

One of Keynes' core issues in his liquidity preference theory is how fundamental uncertainty affects the propensity to hold money as a liquid asset. The paper critically assesses various formal representations of fundamental uncertainty and provides an argument for a more boundedly rational...

In this paper I study the relationship between rationality and asset prices when agents have heterogeneous and incorrect beliefs about future events. Using the fully rational pricing as a benchmark, I show that when agents behave according to the Subjective Generalized Kelly rule (Bottazzi et...

Considerable literature has been devoted to developing statistical inferential results for risk measures, especially for those that are of the form of L-functionals. However, practical and theoretical considerations have highlighted quite a number of risk measures that are of the form of ratios,...

This paper incorporates Bayesian estimation and optimization into portfolio selection framework, particularly for high-dimensional portfolio in which the number of assets is larger than the number of observations. We leverage a constrained 𝓁1 minimization approach, called linear programming...
