We propose a model of a financial market with multiple assets, which takes into account the impact of a large institutional investor rebalancing its positions, so as to maintain a fixed allocation in each asset. We show that feedback effects can lead to significant excess realized correlation...

We propose a simple multi-period model of price impact in a market with multiple assets, which illustrates how feedback effects due to distressed selling and short selling lead to endogenous correlations between asset classes. We show that distressed selling by investors exiting a fund and short...

We propose a tractable framework for quantifying the impact of fire sales on the volatility and correlations of asset returns in a multi-asset setting. Our results enable to quantify the impact of fire sales on the covariance structure of asset returns and provide a quantitative explanation for...

We present a tractable framework which links realized covariances to liquidation flows and asset liquidities via a feeback loop. We show the identifiability of model parameters which enables to build a dynamic indicator for fund liquidations. At every date t, this indicator that we call the...

This paper proposes an intuitive and flexible framework to quantify liquidation risk for financial institutions. We develop a model where the "fundamental" dynamics of assets is modified by price impact from fund liquidations (if any). We characterize mathematically the liquidation schedule of...
