Programme

Title: Asset Pricing with Liquidity Risk

Prof. Muhle-Karbe Johannes  (Imperial College London)

Abstract: We study how equilibrium asset prices depend on liquidity, that is, the ease with which the assets can be traded. In particular, we disentangle the impact of liquidity levels and liquidity risk.
Mathematically, this leads to multidimensional, nonlinear and fully coupled systems of forward-backward stochastic differential equations, which admit tractable asymptotic expansions in the small-cost limit.
(Joint work in progress with Agostino Capponi and Xiaofei Shi.)
