Travelers often are incompletely informed about travel alternatives, which has important implications for various domains of travel behavior such as whether or not to make a trip, modal choice, the timing of a trip or route choice. During the last decade large efforts have been made to increase...

In a setting with dispersed information, monopolistic competition and sticky-prices, a policy authority uncertain about the monetary transmission mechanism reacts prudently to supply shocks. This induces producers to ascribe an excessive importance to their private information when setting...

This textbook incorporates the author's previous book "The Economics of Uncertainty and Insurance" and extends it with the addition of several new chapters on risk sharing, asymmetric information, adverse selection, signaling and moral hazard. It provides a comprehensive introduction to the...

We analyze whether the timing of public information releases affects risk-sharing and pricing in a pure exchange economy. Information releases do not matter if agents have time additive preferences, homogeneous beliefs and access to complete markets. In the case of heterogeneity in agents'...

In this paper, we investigate the stock price behaviour of newly listed companies on the stock exchange market with an extremely high level of information asymmetry. We show a unique mechanism of how informed investors influence the stock prices before entering the market to consume abnormal...

This study shows that uncertainty about information does not strengthen momentum. If the behavioral models hold, and if uncertainty about information causes high-volatility momentum strategies to outperform low-volatility strategies, then this relation must hold on a relative level. Momentum...
