Size Premium Waves

SSRN Electronic Journal, 2018
At low frequencies, we document that size and value premia exhibit strong positive co-movement, but are both negatively related to the equity premium. These patterns are explained in an investment-based asset pricing model featuring persistent micro and macro uncertainty.

Decomposing the Size Premium

SSRN Electronic Journal, 2017
We decompose firm size into four components: the lagged 5-year component that represents size five years ago, and the long-run, intermediate-run, and short-run components that capture changes in size in each horizon. Our analyses indicate that while the lagged 5-year component explains about 80% of the cross-sectional variation in size, it has little ...

Size-Related Premiums

SSRN Electronic Journal, 2017

Portfolio size as function of the premium: modelling and optimization [PDF]

open access: possibleStochastics, 2013
An insurance company has a large number N of potential customers characterized by i.i.d. r.v.'s giving the arrival rates of claims. Customers are risk averse, and a customer accepts an offered premium p according to his A-value. The modelling further involves a discount rate d>r of customers, where r is the risk-free interest rate.

Capital is an ability of doing work. This is abstract and homogenous category, which has its equivalent in physics as concept of energy. Therefore the second law of thermodynamics predetermines an existence and a size of the risk premium as an essential economic constant, which shapes interest and discount rates, wages and salaries, prices of goods and
