Concave Risk Aversion (CRA) and Multivariate Risk Aversion (MRA) are relevant extensions of the risk aversion concept used in the univariate case to the multivariate case, corresponding to concave and ultramodular utility classes, respectively. Although CRA and MRA can coexist, they are dramatically different in some ways, leading to opposite preferences under some circumstances, as in the face of irreversible risks. We introduce the notions of purely concave and purely multivariate risk aversion, related to disjoint utility classes. We apply the purely risk aversion notions to the field of sustainability, where catastrophic and irreversible outcomes can be faced, in order to highlight and compare the consequences of the two approaches on sustainability policies. In this respect, we provide three main results. First, the kind of risk aversion determines the pursued goal. Second, the principle of “rejecting any fair bet” is not always preserved. Third, sustainability policies induced by different risk aversions, if repeated, produce final states in which mean-variance criterion holds.</p>","PeriodicalId":43711,"journal":{"name":"Decisions in Economics and Finance","volume":"17 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2024-03-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140204242","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}

For this purpose, we first introduce a Power Option into the market, derive its value and moment generating function thanks to the affine GARCH structure. We then expand on the results presented by Escobar-Anel et al. (Oper Res Perspect 9:100216, 2022) by solving for the optimal investment allocations into the stock, a cash account and the option. We show that investors who are able to include a derivative indeed outperform those who only invest into the stock and the bank account. In this spirit, investors who fail to include, even a low level of exposure to the derivative, could see up to 7% annual wealth-equivalent losses. This confirms findings in continuous-time models dating to Liu and Pan (J Financ Econ 69(3):401–430, 2003).

Specifically, our model replicates several stylized facts commonly observed in financial markets, such as fat tails and volatility clustering. These market characteristics can be attributed to the Disposition Effect, especially when the trading behavior of agents aligns with the findings of Ben-David and Hirshleifer (Rev Financ Stud 25(8):2485–2532, 2012). To demonstrate this, we examine two versions of the model: one where a class of agents exhibits a high degree of Disposition Effect and another where traders are not influenced by it. By comparing the simulated time series generated by both versions, we find that the one with agents affected by the Disposition Effect better replicates the features observed in real financial markets.

The proposed model is stochastic, and it is strongly based on correlated random walks, making it more adaptable to real-world circumstances. Furthermore, we propose a recombinant binomial tree based on correlated random walks, performing numerical simulations starting from CIR and Vasicek models.
