Better the devil you know than the devil you don't: Neural processing of risk and ambiguity
NeuroImage, 2021 Risk and ambiguity are inherent in virtually all human decision-making. Risk refers to a situation in which we know the precise probability of potential outcomes of each option, whereas ambiguity refers to a situation in which outcome probabilities are ...

Value-at-risk under ambiguity aversion
Financial Innovation, 2018 This study explored the effects of ambiguity on the calculation of Value-at-Risk (VaR) using a mathematical model based on the theory of Choquet-Brownian processes. It was found that while a moderate degree of ambiguity aversion yields a higher value for

Updating Ambiguity Averse Preferences [PDF]
The B.E. Journal of Theoretical Economics, 2009 Dynamic consistency leads to Bayesian updating under expected utility. We ask what it implies for the updating of more general preferences. In this paper, we characterize dynamically consistent update rules for preference models satisfying ambiguity aversion. This characterization extends to regret-based models as well.

Ambiguity Aversion and Incompleteness of Financial Markets [PDF]

But financial assets typically carry some riskidiosyncratic to them, hence, disposing incomes risk using financial assetswill involve buying into the inherent idiosyncratic risk.
