The uncertainty of future economic development affects the term structure of discount rates and, thus, the … structure to incorporate uncertainty and the U.S. is considering a similar step. A series of publications discusses the … different channels through which risk affects evaluation, and have the same qualitative effect of making long-term payoffs more …

We analyze the impact of damage uncertainty on optimal mitigation policies in the integrated assessment of climate … deriving optimal policy rules under persistent uncertainty. For this purpose,we construct a close relative of the DICE model in … a recursive dynamic programming framework. Our recursive approach allows us to disentangle effects of risk, risk …

The paper introduces a new notion of risk aversion that is independent of the good under observation and its measure … consumption paths and the von Neumann & Morgenstern (1944) assumptions. In the one-commodity special case, the new notion of risk … aversion closely relates to a disentanglement of standard risk aversion and intertemporal substitutability. …

The paper analyzes the discount rate under uncertainty. The analysis complements the probabilistic characterization of … uncertainty by a measure of confidence. Special cases of the model comprise discounting under smooth ambiguity aversion as well as … discounting under a disentanglement of risk aversion from aversion to intertemporal substitution. The paper characterizes the …

The paper derives the resulting changes of the risk-free and the stochastic social discount …Uncertainty has an almost negligible impact on project value in the economicstandard model. I show that a comprehensive … evaluation of uncertainty and uncertainty attitude changes this picture fundamentally. The analysis relies on the discount rate …
