In this paper, we characterize the asymmetric of the smile through multiple leverage effects in a stochastic dynamic asset pricing framework.

This assesses the empirical performance of an intertemporal option pricing model with latent variables with generalized the Hull-White stochastic volatility formula.

In this paper, we provided a unifying analysis of latent variable models in finance through the concept of stochastic discount factor (SDF).

In the last decade, the potential macroeconomic effects of intermittent large adjustments in microeconomic variables such as prices, investment, consumption of durables or employment- a behaviour which may be justified by the presence of kinked adjustment costs- have been studied in models where...
