Capital allocation principles are used in various contexts in which a risk capital or a cost of an aggregate position has to be allocated among its constituent parts. We study capital allocation principles in a performance measurement framework. We introduce the notation of suitability of allocations for performance me…

The financial crisis showed the importance of measuring, allocating and regulating systemic risk. Recently, the systemic risk measures that can be decomposed into an aggregation function and a scalar measure of risk, received a lot of attention. In this framework, capital allocations are added after aggregation and can…

problem Understanding capital allocation and wealth distribution dynamics in a frictional economy.
method Mean-field game approach to model interactions between expert and household groups.
result Experts accumulate capital during booms and quickly reverse behavior in busts, even without macro-shocks.

OpenAlpha validates decentralized capital strategies using game theory and market aggregation.

problem Decentralized capital management's lack of trust-minimised, adaptive deployment.
method Game-theoretic validation, adversarial auditing, market-based belief aggregation.
result Confidence scores from validation phases inform capital allocation rules.

The paper translates economic models into a field formalism to study capital accumulation and its fluctuations.

problem Understanding capital accumulation and its fluctuations in a complex economic system.
method Developed a field formalism to preserve interactions and microeconomic features, applying it to a microeconomic framework of investors and firms.
result Capital accumulation patterns can emerge at the macro-scale and affect neighboring sectors, leading to permanent fluctuations.

This research improves forecasting and testing of risk contributions using Expected Shortfall.

method Proposed a class of multivariate matrix-exponential affine mixtures with matrix-exponential marginals.
result Explicit calculations of actuarial quantities are possible due to the proposed class's properties.

Financial institutions are currently required to meet more stringent capital requirements than they were before the recent financial crisis; in particular, the capital requirement for a large bank's trading book under the Basel 2.5 Accord more than doubles that under the Basel II Accord. The significant increase in cap…
