Loss Aversion in a Model of Loan Collateralization
In traditional bank theoretic modelling, agents are assumed to be perfectly rational. This assumption ignores the huge amount of evidence for systematic biases in individual decision making. In this paper, we present a model of collateralization under asymmetric information in which banks correctly anticipate that entrepreneurs are loss averse. Given a moral hazard problem of effort choice, we ...

This paper analyzes, for S-shaped value functions, the relations between loss aversion and perceptionally risk aversion (i.e. computed with the perceived probability weights) in Cumulative Prospect Theory . We show that perceptionally risk aversion for mixed sign lotteries is equivalent to weak (or strong) loss aversion, so this is the right assumption to get a sensible behavior towards risk. T...
متن کاملLoss Aversion in Repeated Games
The Nash equilibrium solution concept for strategic form games is based on the assumption of expected utility maximization. Reference dependent utility functions (in which utility is determined not only by an outcome, but also by the relationship of the outcome to a reference point) are a better predictor of behavior than expected utility. In a repeated situation, the value of the previous payo...
