Abstract

This paper provides an explicit asset-pricing formula in a continuous-time generalequilibrium exchange economy in the presence of moral hazard. Specifically, it solves an optimal consumption/wealth allocation problem of a representative lender in financial markets under regular market risk and rare-event risk when an endowment process is subject to a firm manager’s moral hazard. Consequently, it shows that, under the moral-hazard problem, a positive premium is stipulated on a riskless rate in market equilibrium – call it a moral-hazard premium – due to the necessity to give the manager an incentive to avoid his opportunistic misbehavior.
