Incentive contracts in two-sided moral hazards with multiple agents

Article Abstract:

A model is developed to assess the incentives that can be applied in a contracting problem wherein the principal enters in two-sided moral hazards with independent agents. This type of hazard in the partnership game is resolved when the team size is large enough to justify optimal incentive schemes, which eliminate the principal's incentive problem. This shows the role of information in optimizing incentives between agreements.

Factor analysis and arbitrage pricing in large asset economies

Article Abstract:

Exact factor pricing may be done for a full measure of assets and that there is a probability that every asset in a finite sample is exactly factor priced. The study shows that approximate factor structures exist in general which can be chosen optimally according to their explanatory power and that factor structures are robust in asset repackaging and to the use of proxies approximating true factors.
