Static Portfolio Choice under Cumulative Prospect Theory
We derive the optimal portfolio choice for an investor who behaves according to Cumulative Prospect Theory. The study is done in a oneperiod economy with one risk-free asset and one risky asset, and the reference point corresponds to the terminal wealth arising when the entire initial wealth is invested into the risk-free asset. When it exists, the optimal holding is a function of a generalized...
متن کاملPortfolio Choice Under Cumulative Prospect Theory: An Analytical Treatment
We formulate and carry out an analytical treatment of a single-period portfolio choice model featuring a reference point in wealth, S-shaped utility (value) functions with loss aversion, and probability weighting under Kahneman and Tversky’s cumulative prospect theory (CPT). We introduce a new measure of loss aversion for large payoffs, called the large-loss aversion degree (LLAD), and show tha...
متن کاملConditioning under Cumulative Prospect Theory
This paper derives conditions under which the standard decomposition of unconditional expected utility into marginal probabilities and conditional expected utilities generalizes to Cumulative Prospect Theory. The results are relevant for empirical analyses in which marginal probabilities are used as explanatory variables.
متن کاملCumulative prospect theory and gambling
Whilst Cumulative Prospect theory (CPT) provides an explanation of gambling on longshots at actuarially unfair odds, it cannot explain why people might bet on more favoured outcomes. This paper shows that this is explicable if the degree of loss aversion experienced by the agent is reduced for small-stake gambles (as a proportion of wealth), and probability distortions are greater over losses t...

It is well-known that if the parties in a legal dispute agree about the likelihood of potential trial outcomes then they will be inclined to settle vs. going to trial in order to reduce litigation costs and risk. In this paper, we assume that both plaintiff and defendant evaluate this decision in accordance with Cumulative Prospect Theory. It is found that the two parties will sometimes be unab...
