Moral Hazard in Dynamic Risk Management
We consider a contracting problem in which a principal hires an agent to manage a risky project. When the agent chooses volatility components of the output process and the principal observes the output continuously, the principal can compute the quadratic variation of the output, but not the individual components. This leads to moral hazard with respect to the risk choices of the agent. To find...
متن کاملIdiosyncratic Information, Moral Hazard and Risk Premium∗
While much accounting information is idiosyncratic in nature, economy-wide factors such as accounting standards affect the quality of idiosyncratic accounting information of many firms simultaneously. We study these two features of accounting information by embedding a parsimonious, moral hazard problem into the framework of a multi-firm economy in which project choices are endogenous to accoun...

A firm is subject to accident risk, which the manager can mitigate by exerting effort. An agency problem arises because effort is unobservable and the manager has limited liability. The occurrence of accidents is modelled as a Poisson process, whose intensity is controlled by the manager. We use martingale techniques to formulate the manager’s incentive compatibility constraints. The optimal co...

Freeman’s conclusion that the central bank should absorb losses related to default to provide risk-sharing goes against the concern that central banks shou...
متن کاملSimple Models of Operating Moral Hazard and Investing Moral Hazard
In this paper, we depict and analyze simple models of moral hazard, namely “operating moral hazard” and “investing moral hazard.” First we assume that a corporation exists primarily for the benefit of their shareholders. Then, moral hazard occurs when managers choose an option knowingly that is not optimum for shareholders. We evaluate the loss to shareholders in terms of cash flow to them in t...
