The Network Drivers of Trade Currency Invoicing
Using an equilibrium network model and a large international panel of cross-border trade, we analyse empirically the drivers of foreign currency...
Macro Strikes Back: Term Structure of Risk Premia
We provide a novel priced Wold representation that, using the pricing restrictions of a large cross-section of asset returns, sharply identifies...
The Co-Pricing Factor Zoo
We analyze 18 quadrillion models for the joint pricing of corporate bond and stock returns. Strikingly, we find that equity and nontradable factors...
What Drives Repo Haircuts? Evidence from the UK Market
Using a unique transaction-level dataset covering the UK bilateral repo market, we show that only 61% of the repos are backed by high-quality...
The Market Cost of Business Cycle Fluctuations
We propose a novel approach to measure the cost of aggregate economic fluctuations, that does not require complete specification of investors’ risk...

How we learned to stop counting cases and worry about network effects instead
The commuter hub was key to the spread of COVID-19 in London. The authors of the article estimate it contributed to over 42% of all London cases. When...
The Spread of COVID-19 in London: Network Effects and Optimal Lockdowns
We generalise a stochastic version of the workhorse SIR (Susceptible-Infectious- Removed) epidemiological model to account for spatial dynamics...
Bayesian Solutions for the Factor Zoo: We Just Ran Two Quadrillion Models
We propose a novel, and simple, Bayesian estimation and model selection procedure for crosssectional asset pricing. Our approach, that allows for both...
Consumption in Asset Returns
Using information in returns we identify the stochastic process of consumption. We find that aggregate consumption reacts over multiple quarters to...
