A New Approach to International Arbitrage Pricing
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper uses a nonlinear arbitrage pricing model, a conditional linear model, and an unconditional linear model to price international equities, bonds, and forward currency contracts. Unlike linear models, the nonlinear arbitrage pricing model requires no restrictions on the payoff space, allowing it to price payoffs of options, forward contracts and other derivative securities. Only the nonlinear arbitrage pricing model does an adequate job of explaining the time series behavior of a cross section of international returns.

The Second Fundamental Theorem of Asset Pricing: A New Approach
This article presents a new definition of market completeness that is independent of the notions of no arbitrage and equivalent martingale measures. Our definition has many advantages, all shown herein. First, it preserves the Second Fundamental Theorem of Asset Pricing, even in complex economies. Second, under our definition, the market can be complete yet arbitrage opportunities exist. This i...
متن کاملInternational Pricing with Costly Consumer Arbitrage
Consumer arbitrage affects international pricing in several ways. If all consumers face the same arbitrage costs, a monopolist's profit increases with arbitrage costs, and world welfare declines with them (if output does not rise). If arbitrage costs differ across consumers, a monopolist may sell in a second country even if there is no local demand—it can use the second country to discriminate ...
متن کاملOn Arbitrage-free Pricing for General Data Queries
Data is a commodity. Recent research has considered the mathematical problem of setting prices for different queries over data. Ideal pricing functions need to be flexible – defined for arbitrary queries (select-project-join, aggregate, random sample, and noisy privacy-preserving queries). They should be fine-grained – a consumer should not be required to buy the entire database to get answers ...
متن کاملA note on arbitrage, approximate arbitrage and the fundamental theorem of asset pricing
We provide a critical analysis of the proof of the fundamental theorem of asset pricing given in the paper Arbitrage and approximate arbitrage: the fundamental theorem of asset pricing by B. Wong and C.C. Heyde (Stochastics, 2010) in the context of incomplete Itô-process models. We show that their approach can only work in the known case of a complete nancial market model and give an explicit c...
متن کاملA Unifying Approach to Pricing Insurance and Financial Risk
The actuarial and the financial approach to the pricing of risk remain different despite the increasingly direct interconnection of financial and insurance markets. The difference can be summarized as pricing based on classical risk theory (insurance) vs. non-arbitrage pricing (finance). However, comparable pricing principles are of importance when it comes to transferring insurance risk to fin...
