Asset Liquidity Adjusted VaR

Asset Liquidity and Stock Liquidity

We study the relation between the liquidity of the firm’s assets and the liquidity of financial claims on the assets, thereby linking corporate finance decisions to stock liquidity. Our model highlights an ambiguous relationship. While greater asset liquidity reduces uncertainty regarding valuation of assets-in-place, it increases future investments and the associated uncertainty. The model sho...

Liquidity and Asset Prices *

We broadly define liquid assets, or monetary assets, as any asset that can be readily sold in the market and can be held by a number of people in succession before maturity. We ask in what environment is the circulation of liquid assets essential for the smooth running of the economy. By developing a canonical model of a monetary economy (i.e., where the circulation of liquid assets is essentia...

Emmanuel Fragnière Non-parametric Liquidity-adjusted Var Model: a Stochastic Programming Approach

This paper proposes a Stochastic Programming (SP) approach for the calculation of the liquidity-adjusted Value-at-Risk (LVaR). The model presented in this paper offers an alternative to Almgren and Chriss’s mean-variance approach (1999 and 2000). In this research, a twostage stochastic programming model is developed with the intention of deriving the optimal trading strategies that respond dyna...

Liquidity, Asset Price and Banking

We consider an economy where people have the needs for liquidity because of the unanticipated consumption opportunity, yet banks may not provide su¢ cient liquidity due to imperfect technology in commitment, enforcement and record-keeping. We show a link between the liquidity generated by bank lending, the value of the asset used as collateral and aggregate economic activity. When the record-ke...
