How Does Progressivity Affect the Tax Cut Multiplier?
International Economic Review, EarlyView.ABSTRACT How does the targeting of personal income tax cuts affect the output multiplier? This paper provides quantitative evidence using a heterogeneous‐agent New‐Keynesian model calibrated to match US distributions of income, wealth, marginal tax rates, and marginal propensities to consume.

The Evolution of Interest‐Rate Models: From the Yield Curve to the Swaption Cube
Journal of Economic Surveys, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Interest‐rate modelling is often taught as a catalogue of competing stochastic equations, obscuring why models were created and why modern sell‐side desks use several simultaneously. This survey reorganises the field around five layers of a pricing architecture: curve construction; arbitrage‐free dynamics; volatility‐smile representation ...

Longevity, Health, and Housing Risk Management in Retirement
The Journal of Finance, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Annuities, long‐term care insurance, and reverse mortgages remain puzzlingly unpopular to manage post‐retirement longevity, health, and housing price risks. We use a flexible life‐cycle model structurally estimated with a unique stated‐preference survey experiment of Canadian households to understand why. Key factors include high risk aversion,

On the Exact Limiting Distribution of a Volatility Target Index
Mathematical Finance, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Assuming a lognormal distribution for the underlying risky asset, we study the limiting distribution of a volatility target index as the rebalancing time step approaches zero. Two limit theorems (a strong law of large numbers and a central limit theorem) are established, and as an application, the exact limiting distribution is derived.

The Current Value of the Mathematical Provision: A Financial Risk Prospect [PDF]
, 2007 The paper addresses the question of the calculation of the current value of the mathematical provision and moulds it in a deterministic and stochastic scenario, using a proper term structure of interest rates estimated by means of a Cox-Ingersoll-Ross ...

Social welfare effects of annuitization in small open economies
The Scandinavian Journal of Economics, EarlyView.Abstract This paper develops a theory of when annuitization improves or reduces social welfare. The analysis is based on a small open economy with exogenous prices, populated by overlapping generations of non‐altruistic agents. Annuities provide longevity risk insurance and above‐market returns, but also reduce accidental bequests that transfer ...

Exchanging uncertain mortality for a cost [PDF]
, 2013 We analyze a pooled annuity fund from a participant’s perspective by comparing it to a mortality-linked fund, a type of variable payout life annuity, that gives a return linked to the force of mortality but subject to a cost.

Advanced Chemical Engineering, Volume 1, Issue 2, December 2026.A two‐scale framework bridges process‐level physics and system‐level decision‐making for electrified green methanol production. Replacing computationally demanding reactor simulations with an interpretable symbolic‐regression surrogate enables rapid techno‐economic and life‐cycle assessment. The framework reveals how process performance propagates into

Learning in the Limit: Income Inference from Credit Extensions
The Journal of Finance, Volume 81, Issue 5, Page 2729-2772, October 2026.ABSTRACT Combining a randomized controlled trial with administrative and survey data, this paper shows that credit limit extensions significantly increase total spending and income expectations. By controlling for changes in personal income expectations, the spending response to credit limit extensions weakens by approximately 30%.

Journal of Public Economic Theory, Volume 28, Issue 5, October 2026.ABSTRACT Mandated annuitization is often proposed to eliminate the inefficiency caused by the positive correlation between risk type and purchase level in insurance markets. We revisit this solution in a mandatory annuity program with partial waiver, which is empirically relevant.
