We study in a general perspective the partial equilibrium incentives and the general equilibrium asset pricing implications of Value-at-Risk (VaR) regulation in continuous time economies with intermediate consumption, stochastic opportunity set, and heterogenous attitudes to risk. Our findings...

We apply perturbation methods to solve in closed form a class of robust control problems, implied by Anderson, Hansen and Sargent setting of a preference for robustness. In the constant investment opportunity set case, we obtain closed form power series solutions for the arising robust Bellman...

We present a geometric approach to discrete time multiperiod mean variance portfolio opti-mization that largely simplifies the mathematical analysis and the economic interpretation of such model settings. We show that multiperiod mean variance optimal policies can be decom-posed in an orthogonal...
