Equilibrium Policy on Dividend and Capital Injection under Time-inconsistent Preferences
This paper studies the dividend and capital injection problem under a diffusion risk model with general discount functions. A proportional cost is imposed when injecting capitals. For exponential discounting as time-consistent benchmark, we obtain the closed-form solutions and show that the optimal strategies are of threshold type. Under general discount function which leads to time-inconsistency, we adopt the definition of weak equilibrium and obtain the extended HJB equation system. An explicit solution is derived under pseudo-exponential discounting where three cases of the dividend and capital injection thresholds are obtained. Numerical examples show that large capital injection cost may lead to no capital injection at all, while larger difference in group discount rate leads to higher equilibrium value function.

An Optimal Dividend Problem with Capital Injections over a Finite Horizon
In this paper we propose and solve an optimal dividend problem with capital injections over a finite time horizon. The surplus dynamics obeys a linearly controlled drifted Brownian motion that is reflected at the origin,…
Equilibrium Selection in Pure Bubble Models by Dividend Injection
Rational pure bubble models feature multiple (and often a continuum of) equilibria, which makes model predictions and policy analyses non-robust. We show that when the interest rate in the fundamental equilibrium is belo…
Asset Prices with Overlapping Generations and Capital Accumulation: Tirole (1985) Revisited
We revisit the classic paper of Tirole "Asset Bubbles and Overlapping Generations" (1985, Econometrica), which shows that the emergence of asset bubbles solves the capital over-accumulation problem. While Tirole's main i…
Equilibrium Defaultable Corporate Debt and Investment
In dynamic capital structure models with an investor break-even condition, the firm's Bellman equation may not generate a contraction mapping, so the standard existence and uniqueness conditions do not apply. First, we p…
Reference-dependent asset pricing with a stochastic consumption-dividend ratio
We study a discrete-time consumption-based capital asset pricing model under expectations-based reference-dependent preferences. More precisely, we consider an endowment economy populated by a representative agent who de…
