Financial traits compete to survive in the human population, and are modified in the process of being transmitted from one agent to another. These cultural evolutionary processes shape market outcomes, which in turn feed back into the success of competing traits. This evolutionary system is studied in an emerging paradigm, new evolutionary finance. In this paradigm, social transmission biases determine the evolution of financial traits in the investor population. It considers an enriched set of cultural traits, both selection on traits and mutation pressure, and market equilibrium at different frequencies. Other key ingredients of the paradigm include psychological bias, social network structure, information asymmetries, and institutional environment.","PeriodicalId":176300,"journal":{"name":"Microeconomics: Intertemporal Consumer Choice & Savings eJournal","volume":"32 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126737702","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A parsimonious model fitted to the data shows why background labor- income risk can explain much of this risk-taking pattern. Uncontrollable labor-income risk stresses middle-income households more because labor income is a larger fraction of their total lifetime resources compared with the rich. In response, middle-income households re-duce (controllable) financial risk. Richer households, having less pressure, can afford more risk-taking. The poor take low risk because they avoid jeopardizing their subsistence consumption.","PeriodicalId":176300,"journal":{"name":"Microeconomics: Intertemporal Consumer Choice & Savings eJournal","volume":"22 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-07-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122442801","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Our empirical strategy uses a generalized difference-in-differences design to exploit spatial variations in the intensity of China's Cultural Revolution (CR), a radical political movement during 1966-1976, and cohort variations in the number of impressionable years during CR. We observe over 11 million vehicle choices of individual Chinese consumers from 2012 to 2013. We find that the experience of CR increases the likelihood of choosing Chinese brands, controlling for location, birth-year cohort, and product attributes (e.g., price and class). Moreover, the effect is only significant after the China-Japan conflict in August-September 2012 activated Chinese national identity. The dynamics show the effect persisted throughout 2013 after the activation. Exploring heterogeneous effects, we find that the effects are stronger for more recognizable Chinese brands as well as more expensive models, and we rule out alternative mechanisms such as fear of violence.","PeriodicalId":176300,"journal":{"name":"Microeconomics: Intertemporal Consumer Choice & Savings eJournal","volume":"18 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-07-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115471673","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The goal of this review is to provide researchers, policymakers, and practitioners with a broad view of the savings-related research landscape and to help identify promising practices, as well as gaps where additional future research might be most useful. The research is organized into three broad categories, each identifying an avenue through which to increase consumers’ savings: savings products (providing a ready place to save), financial incentives (providing motivation to save), and behavioral and psychological approaches (providing a choice environment that facilitates saving).","PeriodicalId":176300,"journal":{"name":"Microeconomics: Intertemporal Consumer Choice & Savings eJournal","volume":"8 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-07-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130949727","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Such a consumer choice model is a general model to characterize consumer choice under network effect. We first characterize the choice probabilities under such a choice model. Then we consider the associated personalized assortment optimization problem. Particularly, the seller is allowed to offer a personalized assortment to each consumer, and the consumer chooses among the products according to the proposed choice model. We show that the problem is NP-hard even if the consumers form a star network. Despite of the complexity of the problem, we show that if the consumers form a star network, then the optimal assortment to the central consumer cannot be strictly larger than that without network effects; and the optimal assortment to each peripheral consumer must be a revenue-ordered assortment that is a subset of the optimal assortment without network effect. We also present a condition when revenue-ordered assortments can achieve a provable performance. Then in view of the fact that each node in a network can represent a group of consumers, we propose a novel idea in which the sellers are allowed to offer \"randomized assortments\" to each node in the network. We show that allowing for randomized assortments may further increase the revenue, and under a mild condition, the optimal assortment for the central consumer must be a combination of two adjacent revenue-ordered assortments and thus efficient algorithm can be developed. Finally, we extend the results to directed acyclic graphs (DAGs), showing that a mixture of adjacent revenue-ordered assortments is optimal under certain conditions.","PeriodicalId":176300,"journal":{"name":"Microeconomics: Intertemporal Consumer Choice & Savings eJournal","volume":"137 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-07-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131526710","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A focus of the model is the discounting, when discount factors cannot be derived from market products. That is, a risk-neutralizing trading strategy cannot be performed. This is the case, when one is in need of a risk-free (default-free) discounting, but default protection on funding providers is not traded. For this case, we introduce a default compensation factor ($exp(+tilde{lambda} T)$) that describes the present value of a strategy to compensate for default (like buying default protection would do). In a second part, we introduce a model, where the survival probability depends on the required notional. This model is different from the classical modelling of a time-dependent survival probability ($exp(-lambda T)$). The model especially allows that large liquidity requirements are instantly more likely do default than small ones. Combined the two approaches build a framework in which discounting (valuation) is non-linear. The framework can lead to the effect that discount-factors for very large liquidity requirements or projects are an increasing function of time.","PeriodicalId":176300,"journal":{"name":"Microeconomics: Intertemporal Consumer Choice & Savings eJournal","volume":"207 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-06-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114973346","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
