1 Benchmark Status in Fixed - Income Asset Markets
What is a benchmark bond? We provide a formal theoretical treatment of this concept that relates endogenously determined benchmark status to price discovery and we derive its implications. We describe an econometric technique for identifying the benchmark that is congruent with our theoretical framework. We apply this to the US corporate bond market and to the natural experiment that occurred w...
متن کاملTail Risk in Fixed-Income Markets∗
The importance of tail risk for asset pricing has been widely recognized in the literature, but its empirical investigations rest in equity markets mostly. We construct a model-free measure of tail risk for fixedincome markets using a proprietary dataset of swaptions, denoted as TAIL, which captures the price of insuring against extreme movements in interest rate swap rates. We show that TAIL c...

Conversely, having an effective strategy to execute trades and to measure transaction costs can enhance returns: “A penny saved in slippage ...

The paper analyzes the long-run performance of dynamic investment strategies based on fixed-mix portfolio rules. Such rules prescribe rebalancing the portfolio by transferring funds between its positions according to fixed (timeindependent) proportions. The focus is on asset markets where prices fluctuate as stationary stochastic processes. Under very general assumptions, it is shown that any f...
متن کاملEquilibrium and arbitrage in incomplete asset markets with fixed prices
At arbitrary prices of commodities and assets, fix-price equilibria exist under weak assumptions: endowments need not satisfy an interiority condition, utility functions need only satisfy a very weak monotonicity requirement, and the asset return matrix allows for redundant assets. Prices of assets may permit arbitrage. At equilibrium, though restricted through endogenously determined trading c...
