Resumo
The thesis consists in three articles about the estimation of asset pricing models. The first paper analyses small sample properties of Generalized Empirical Likelihood estimators for the risk aversion parameter in CRRA preferences when the economy is characterized by rare disasters. In the second article, we develop and test a methodology to assess misspeci fied asset pricing models by taking into account the smallest probability distortion necessary to assign correct prices. In the final paper, we estimate an approximate long run risks model using Brazilian data.
