摘要:
For a general class of pure exchange OLG economies under uncertainty, we provide a complete characterization of the efficiency properties of competitive equilibria when markers are only sequentially complete and the criterion of efficiency is conditional Pareto optimality. We also consider a particular case in which markets fail to be even sequentially complete and provide a characterization when the criterion of efficiency is weakened to ex post Pareto optimality.
