This book was released on 2003 with total page 57 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Market frictions create portfolios of complicated nature, constrained zero-income portfolios. They generate no income in the future contingencies but matter to risk sharing whether they are mispriced or not. The no arbitrage conditions of the literature may not be qualified for equilibrium conditions in the presence of constrained zero-income portfolios. Thus 'pricing by arbitrage' is far from completely characterizing asset pricing relations. The purpose of this paper is to provide a unified treatment of both asset pricing and equilibrium when asset markets are subject to portfolio constraints. In particular, 'projective arbitrage' is proposed to examine both asset pricing and the existence of equilibrium under portfolio constraints. To formulate the effect of constrained zero-income portfolios on asset pricing and equilibrium, we introduce the local and global laws of one price as an extension of the law of one price to the case with portfolio constraints. The global law of one price is identified as 'pricing by projective arbitrage.' Moreover, the global law of one price provides an important criterion for judging the capability of various notions of arbitrage to characterize equilibrium asset prices under portfolio constraints. The traditional approach to general equilibrium with incomplete markets breaks down in the face of market frictions simply because the law of one price fails.

Book excerpt: The problem of fair pricing of contingent claims is well understood in the contex of an arbitrage free, complete financial market, with perfect information: the so-called arbitrage approach permits to construct a unique valuation operator compatible with observed price processes. In the more realistic context of partial information, the equilibrium analysis permits to construct a unique valuation operator which only depends on some particular price processes as well as on the dividends process. In this paper we present these two approaches and we explore their links and the conditions under which they are compatible ; In particular, we derive from the equilibrium conditions some links between the price processes paramaters and those of the dividend processes paramaters.
Download or read book Fundamentals Of Institutional Asset Management written by Frank J Fabozzi and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2020-10-12 with total page 616 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides the fundamentals of asset management. It takes a practical perspective in describing asset management. Besides the theoretical aspects of investment management, it provides in-depth insights into the actual implementation issues associated with investment strategies. The 19 chapters combine theory and practice based on the experience of the authors in the asset management industry. The book starts off with describing the key activities involved in asset management and the various forms of risk in managing a portfolio. There is then coverage of the different asset classes (common stock, bonds, and alternative assets), collective investment vehicles, financial derivatives, common stock analysis and valuation, bond analytics, equity beta strategies (including smart beta), equity alpha strategies (including quantitative/systematic strategies), bond indexing and active bond portfolio strategies, and multi-asset strategies. The methods of using financial derivatives (equity derivatives, interest rate derivatives, and credit derivatives) in managing the risks of a portfolio are clearly explained and illustrated.
Download or read book Advanced Asset Pricing Theory written by Ma Chenghu and published by World Scientific Publishing Company. This book was released on 2011-01-03 with total page 816 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a broad introduction of modern asset pricing theory with equal treatments for both discrete-time and continuous-time modeling. Both the no-arbitrage and the general equilibrium approaches of asset pricing theory are treated coherently within the general equilibrium framework.The analyses and coverage are up to date, comprehensive and in-depth. Topics include microeconomic foundation of asset pricing theory, the no-arbitrage principle and fundamental theorem, risk measurement and risk management, sequential portfolio choice, equity premium decomposition, option pricing, bond pricing and term structure of interest rates. The merits and limitations are expounded with respect to allocation and information market efficiency, along with the classical expectations hypothesis concerning the information content of yield curve and bond prices. Efforts are also made towards the resolution of several well-documented puzzles in empirical finance, which include the equity premium puzzle, the risk free rate puzzle, and the money-ness bias phenomenon of Black-Scholes option pricing model.The theory is self-contained and unified in presentation. The inclusion of proofs and derivations to enhance the transparency of the underlying arguments and conditions for the validity of the economic theory makes an ideal advanced textbook or reference book for graduate students specializing in financial economics and quantitative finance. The explanations are detailed enough to capture the interest of those curious readers, and complete enough to provide necessary background material needed to explore further the subject and research literature.

Download or read book Continuous Time Asset Pricing Theory written by Robert A. Jarrow and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-07-30 with total page 470 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Asset pricing theory yields deep insights into crucial market phenomena such as stock market bubbles. Now in a newly revised and updated edition, this textbook guides the reader through this theory and its applications to markets. The new edition features new results on state dependent preferences, a characterization of market efficiency and a more general presentation of multiple-factor models using only the assumptions of no arbitrage and no dominance. Taking an innovative approach based on martingales, the book presents advanced techniques of mathematical finance in a business and economics context, covering a range of relevant topics such as derivatives pricing and hedging, systematic risk, portfolio optimization, market efficiency, and equilibrium pricing models. For applications to high dimensional statistics and machine learning, new multi-factor models are given. This new edition integrates suicide trading strategies into the understanding of asset price bubbles, greatly enriching the overall presentation and further strengthening the book’s underlying theme of economic bubbles. Written by a leading expert in risk management, Continuous-Time Asset Pricing Theory is the first textbook on asset pricing theory with a martingale approach. Based on the author’s extensive teaching and research experience on the topic, it is particularly well suited for graduate students in business and economics with a strong mathematical background.
Download or read book Arbitrage Theory written by Jochen E.M. Wilhelm and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present 'Introductory Lectures on Arbitrage-based Financial Asset Pricing' are a first attempt to give a comprehensive presentation of Arbitrage Theory in a discrete time framework (by the way: all the re sults given in these lectures apply to a continuous time framework but, probably, in continuous time we could achieve stronger results - of course at the price of stronger assumptions). It has been turned out in the last few years that capital market theory as derived and evolved from the capital asset pricing model (CAPM) in the middle sixties, can, to an astonishing extent, be based on arbitrage arguments only, rather than on mean-variance preferences of investors. On the other hand, ar bitrage arguments provided access to a wider range of results which could not be obtained by standard CAPM-methods, e. g. the valuation of contingent claims (derivative assets) Dr the_ investigation of futures prices. To some extent the presentation will loosely follow historical lines. A selected set of capital asset pricing models will be derived according to their historical progress and their increasing complexity as well. It will be seen that they all share common structural properties. After having made this observation the presentation will become an axiomatical one: it will be stated in precise terms what arbitrage is about and what the consequences are if markets do not allow for risk-free arbitrage opportunities. The presentation will partly be accompanied by an illus trating example: two-state option pricing.

Download or read book Asset Pricing Theory written by Costis Skiadas and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2009-02-09 with total page 363 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Asset Pricing Theory is an advanced textbook for doctoral students and researchers that offers a modern introduction to the theoretical and methodological foundations of competitive asset pricing. Costis Skiadas develops in depth the fundamentals of arbitrage pricing, mean-variance analysis, equilibrium pricing, and optimal consumption/portfolio choice in discrete settings, but with emphasis on geometric and martingale methods that facilitate an effortless transition to the more advanced continuous-time theory. Among the book's many innovations are its use of recursive utility as the benchmark representation of dynamic preferences, and an associated theory of equilibrium pricing and optimal portfolio choice that goes beyond the existing literature. Asset Pricing Theory is complete with extensive exercises at the end of every chapter and comprehensive mathematical appendixes, making this book a self-contained resource for graduate students and academic researchers, as well as mathematically sophisticated practitioners seeking a deeper understanding of concepts and methods on which practical models are built. Covers in depth the modern theoretical foundations of competitive asset pricing and consumption/portfolio choice Uses recursive utility as the benchmark preference representation in dynamic settings Sets the foundations for advanced modeling using geometric arguments and martingale methodology Features self-contained mathematical appendixes Includes extensive end-of-chapter exercises
Download or read book Dynamic Asset Pricing Theory written by Darrell Duffie and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2010-01-27 with total page 488 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a thoroughly updated edition of Dynamic Asset Pricing Theory, the standard text for doctoral students and researchers on the theory of asset pricing and portfolio selection in multiperiod settings under uncertainty. The asset pricing results are based on the three increasingly restrictive assumptions: absence of arbitrage, single-agent optimality, and equilibrium. These results are unified with two key concepts, state prices and martingales. Technicalities are given relatively little emphasis, so as to draw connections between these concepts and to make plain the similarities between discrete and continuous-time models. Readers will be particularly intrigued by this latest edition's most significant new feature: a chapter on corporate securities that offers alternative approaches to the valuation of corporate debt. Also, while much of the continuous-time portion of the theory is based on Brownian motion, this third edition introduces jumps--for example, those associated with Poisson arrivals--in order to accommodate surprise events such as bond defaults. Applications include term-structure models, derivative valuation, and hedging methods. Numerical methods covered include Monte Carlo simulation and finite-difference solutions for partial differential equations. Each chapter provides extensive problem exercises and notes to the literature. A system of appendixes reviews the necessary mathematical concepts. And references have been updated throughout. With this new edition, Dynamic Asset Pricing Theory remains at the head of the field.

This book was released on 2021-12-20 with total page 829 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book covers the fundamentals of financial management and investment management without getting into the highly technical topics and mathematical rigor. It also provides a practitioner-oriented approach to financial and investment management.The field of finance covers several specialty areas. The two most important ones which set the foundations for the other specialty areas are financial management and investment management, and these are the two major topics covered in the book. After touching on the basics — the financial system and the players, financial statements, and mathematics of finance — the authors then cover financial management and investment management in greater depth. For financial management the authors focus on financial strategy and financial planning, dividend policy, corporate financing decisions, entrepreneurial finance, financial risk management, and capital budgeting decisions. The investment management coverage includes the different types of risks faced in investing, company analysis, valuing common stock, portfolio selection, asset pricing theory, and investing in common stocks and bonds. The last chapter of the book covers financial derivatives and how they are used in finance to control risk.

This book was released on 2004-10-18 with total page 18 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2004 im Fachbereich BWL - Investition und Finanzierung, Note: 1,3, Helmut-Schmidt-Universität - Universität der Bundeswehr Hamburg, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Diese Arbeit befasst sich mit dem Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM), ein Kapitalmarktmodell, welches von John Lintner1, Jan Mossin2 und William F. Sharpe3, getrennt voneinander, entwickelt wurde. Als Grundlage dient die von William F. Sharpe 1964 im Journal of Finance verfasste Arbeit, die den Erfolgsbeitrag einer einzelnen Aktie bzw. eines einzelnen Wertpapiers in Abhängigkeit von dessen Risiko in einem gleichgewichtigen Kapitalmarkt abbildet. Das dargestellte Modell basiert auf den Annahmen eines vollkommenen Kapitalmarktes. Dies impliziert das Fehlen von in der Praxis anfallenden Transaktionskosten sowie Steuern und anderen Friktionen, wie z.B. Markteintrittsbarrieren. Weiterhin wird angenommen, dass die Wertpapiere beliebig teilbar sind. Es wird ein vollständiger Wettbewerb aller Marktteilnehmer zu Grunde gelegt, und somit ist es einem einzelnen Teilnehmer nicht möglich den Preis der Wertpapiere zu beeinflussen. Daneben stehen den Marktteilnehmern alle Informationen jederzeit kostenlos zur Verfügung, und alle Investoren verhalten sich rational, indem sie ihren erwarteten Nutzen gemäß maximieren. Weiterhin gilt es für das Verständnis des Modells anzumerken, dass Investoren nach nur zwei Kriterien ihre Anlageentscheidung treffen. Als Erfolgskriterium betrachten die Anleger den erwarteten Ertrag den eine Aktie innerhalb einer Periode erwirtschaftet. Als Risikokriterium wird die Standardabweichung, d.h. die Abweichung vom Erwartungswert nach beiden Seiten, angesehen. Ausgehend von der Problemstellung vor der Sharpe stand, wird kurz auf den damaligen Stand der Diskussion eingegangen und anschließend wird erörtert auf welche weiteren Annahmen sein Modell fußt. Im Weiteren wird das CAPM in seinen Grundzügen erklärt und anschließend kritisch betrachtet. Aufbauend auf dieser Modellkritik werden Modellvarianten vorgestellt, die aufzeigen, dass einige Erkenntnisse des Modells heute nicht mehr zutreffen. Letztendlich gilt es zu klären, warum „The version of the CAPM developed by Sharpe (1964) ... has never been an empirical success.”4
