The Asset Allocation Decision in a Loss Aversion World
The purpose of this paper is to derive explicit formulae for the asset allocation decision for the loss aversion utility function proposed by Kahneman and Tuversky. We show that these utility functions exhibit constant absolute risk aversion. We also give analytic results which interpret the assumptions of risk-aversion with respect to gains but risk-a¤ection with respect to losses in terms of ...
متن کاملAsset Pricing with Loss Aversion∗
Using standard preferences for asset pricing has not been very successful in matching asset price characteristics such as the risk-free interest rate, equity premium and the Sharpe ratio to time series data. Behavioral finance has recently proposed more realistic preferences such as those with loss aversion. Research is starting to explore the implications of behaviorally founded preferences fo...
متن کاملDynamic Asset Allocation and Downside-Risk Aversion
This paper considers dynamic asset allocation in a mean versus downside-risk framework. We derive closed-form solutions for the optimal portfolio weights when returns are lognormally distributed. Moreover, we study the impact of skewed and fat-tailed return distributions. We nd that the optimal fraction invested in stocks is V-shaped: at low and high levels of wealth the investor increases the ...
متن کاملLoss aversion, survival and asset prices
This paper studies the wealth and pricing implications of loss aversion in the presence of arbitrageurs with Epstein-Zin preferences. Our analysis shows that if loss aversion is the only difference in investors’ preferences, then for empirically relevant parameter values, loss-averse investors will be driven out of the market and do not affect long run prices. The selection process is slow in t...
متن کاملOptimal Asset Allocation under Forward Exponential Performance Criteria
This work presents a novel concept in stochastic optimization, namely, the notion of forward performance. As an application, we analyze a portfolio management problem with exponential criteria. Under minimal model assumptions we explicitly construct the forward performance process and the associated optimal wealth and asset allocations. For various model parameters, we recover a range of invest...
