 EconPapers: Price Stability with Imperfect Financial Integration
Using a two-country dynamic general equilibrium model with incomplete markets, price stickiness and monopolistic competition, one finds that an allocation in which the producer inflation rates in both countries are stabilized to zero reproduces the flexible-price allocation.
Therefore, under incomplete markets, price stability is a good approximation of the feasible first best policy.

 Joseph E. Stiglitz: Whither Socialism?
Information economics challenges key assumptions of the competitive capitalism model and focuses on information inefficiencies, such as imperfect competition (oligopolistic practices); incomplete markets for goods, labor, capital, and land—in particular, forward markets; and incomplete and costly information, as well as limits and costs of processing available information.
Even mature equity markets may distort enterprise behavior; a good example is the linking managers' rewards to short-term stock price fluctuation.
The scope for massive coordination failures resulting from information deficiencies in competition, privatization, and capital markets leads to the rejection of the "folk theorem" that "anything the government can do, the private sector can do better." Stiglitz believes that on the contrary, there is no intellectual foundation for the separation of efficiency and equity concerns.

 How do households smooth earnings fluctuations: what can we learn from Consumer Expenditure Data?
Markets are either exogenously incomplete in that households can only trade a risk-free bond, subject to a possibly binding borrowing constraint, or endogenously incomplete due to enforcement or informational frictions that prevent perfect risk sharing.
In this paper we demonstrate that different incomplete markets models yield qualitatively distinct predictions about how consumption growth responds to declines and increases in earnings.
We then use earnings and consumption data from the 1980 to 2000 Consumer Expenditure Survey to empirically test these implications about the asymmetric consumption responses to positive and negative earnings growth, in order to assess which form of market incompleteness approximates individual consumption smoothing opportunities best

 EconPapers: On the Structure of Market Excess Demand in an Intertemporal General Equilibrium Model
But with incomplete financial markets, heterogeneous expectations lying in an appropriate set of dimension S-L (where S is the number of states of the world and L the number of assets) still lead to a monotone spot market excess demand function.
The consequence of this two stage allocation process is that the incomes in every period are determined by the evaluation of endowments which are the result of the equilibrium process in futures markets of the period before and thus far away from being arbitrary as in the Arrow-Debreu Model.
The main reason for this result to be true is that in contrary to the Arrow-Debreu model where final consumption allocations for all periods are reached immediately in the first period, in an Intertemporal General Equilibrium Model they are reached via futures and spot markets transactions.

 Financial Intermediaries and Markets
A sophisticated financial system—a system with complete markets for aggregate risk and limited market participation—is incentive-efficient, if the intermediaries issue complete contingent contracts, or else constrained-efficient, if they issue incomplete contracts.
Intermediaries such as banks that issue incomplete contracts, e.g., demand deposits, are subject to runs, but this does not imply a market failure.
We distinguish financial intermediaries according to whether they issue complete contingent contracts or incomplete contracts.

 Frontiers in Applied General Equilibrium Modeling
It extends the received theory of general equilibrium with incomplete markets that has been used to analyze the stochastic volatility of asset prices and the risk premium puzzle to incorporate default, credit risk, and institutions to deal with them.
Equilibrium is characterized by an intertemporal price system that clears markets for labor, capital services, consumption goods, and investment goods.
It is a fascinating recapitulation of the intellectual history of general equilibrium theory and its use in AGE.

We study the dual formulation of the utility maximization problem in incomplete markets when the utility function is finitely valued on the whole real line.
Motivated by an optimal investment problem under time horizon uncertainty and when default may occurs, we study a general structure for an incomplete semimartingale model extending the classical terminal wealth utility maximization problem.
Given a utility function defined on Â, we analyse the problem of maximizing the expected utility of the liquidation value of terminal wealth diminished by some random claim.

 Courses/Programs: Agent-Based Computational Economics (ACE)
Within this framework, various problems are examined (consumption and savings, portfolio choice, labor supply,...) in environments in which the standard welfare theorems fail due to taxation, market power, externalities, or incomplete asset markets.
Topics covered (many with linked readings) include various market formulations and their realizations in different settings, and the algorithmic properties of various combinatorial auctions and commodity markets.
This course is a mathematically rigorous ivestigation of the interplay of economic theory and computer science with an emphasis on the relationship of incentive compatibility and computational efficiency.

 Roy Radner
Radner (1972) integrated uncertainty and financial markets into a comprehensive Neo-Walrasian model that yielded an "equilibrium of plans, prices and price expectations" in a sequential economy - also known as a "Radner Equilibrium" - which has since found many applications in the theory of general equilibrium, finance and incomplete markets.
In his 1968 classical paper, Radner incorporated and studied the impact of different information structures in an Arrow-Debreu model by defining them as different partitions in the state space.
Radner (1967) formalized the idea of the informational role of prices and the concept of a "rational expectations equilibrium" in a general equilibrium setting.

 UCAN's Comments on Pacific Bell's 271 Filing (long distance)
For all of the aforementioned reasons, UCAN respectfully requests that the draft 271 application be deemed incomplete and that the Commission require include a more complete analysis of the public interest requirements for entry into long-distance.
In order to prevent anti-competitive leverage in either local or long-distance markets stemming from traditional monopoly markets, Section 271 places several safeguards which must be met before entrance is granted.
Noticeably absent from Section 271 is any mention of language stating that the Commission may not, on a case-by-case basis, impose additional requirements where necessary to render a Section 271 application consistent with the public interest.
