@JesusFerna7026@lm_guirola Preference endogeneity may resemble endogenous social norms. See https://t.co/43SFSV1zYA. The model’s “lazy” equilibrium has a feedback loop from high taxes/spending to weak norms about work. Working less, people vote for higher redistribution.
AND IT IS OUT!
We have had enough reports saying Europe is stagnating. Change is not possible if we do not change the way the EU works. With Bengt Holmstrom and @competitionprof , I argue the EU should focus on prosperity and stop regulating everything.

On balance, the reform always struck me as questionable. Removing reliance on credit ratings - sure. But reducing capital requirements to ~0? Seemed off. Perhaps it was, in part, a mistake. Regulation is hard. (5/5)
The insurance industry is huge in terms of assets, and critical to a healthy economy. Research in finance has paid much more attention to this area recently. The Review of Financial Studies special issue on this has just come out, edited by @rkoijen and @motoyogo. (1/5)
We document that lower capital requirements (for some structured securities) pushed insurance portfolios around substantially. Capital requirements matter, quite a bit. (4/5)
