Registered index‐linked annuities in qualified retirement plans
Abstract Many Americans remain financially underprepared for retirement. While automatic enrollment in employer‐sponsored retirement plans has helped, target‐date funds (TDFs) used as default investments have limitations. We propose target‐date registered index‐linked annuities (TD‐RILAs) as a transparent, cost‐effective alternative providing ...

Abstract Two distinct strands of research focus on decentralized risk sharing plans. One strand centers on classic risk sharing and decentralized insurance, including peer‐to‐peer insurance, mutual aid, and DeFi insurance. The other explores decentralized annuities, such as tontine and group self‐annuitization. Despite their disparate development paths,

Fractional gaussian noise: Spectral density and estimation methods
The fractional Brownian motion (fBm) process, governed by a fractional parameter H∈(0,1), is a continuous‐time Gaussian process with its increment being the fractional Gaussian noise (fGn). This article first provides a computationally feasible expression for the spectral density of fGn.

Testing in GARCH‐X models: boundary, correlations and bootstrap theory
In this article, we consider the so‐called Fixed Shrinkage (FS) bootstrap for the class of GARCH models with explanatory variables (GARCH‐X). Under the assumption of stationary covariates, the proposed FS bootstrap does not require modeling the covariates, as these are kept fixed in the bootstrap generating process. Our main focus is on testing whether

Bubbles and crashes: A tale of quantiles
Periodically collapsing bubbles, if they exist, induce asymmetric dynamics in asset prices. In this article, I show that unit root quantile autoregressive models can approximate such dynamics by allowing the largest autoregressive root to take values below unity at low quantiles, which correspond to price crashes, and above unity at upper quantiles ...
