Elyès Jouini et al., « Economic Consequences of Nth-Degree Risk Increases and Nth-Degree Risk Attitudes », HAL-SHS : économie et finance, ID : 10.1007/s11166-013-9176-6
We study comparative statics of Nth-degree risk increases within a large class of problems that involve bidimensional payoffs and additive or multiplicative risks. We establish necessary and sufficient conditions for unambiguous impact of Nth-degree risk increases on optimal decision making. We develop a simple and intuitive approach to interpret these conditions : novel notions of directional Nth-degree risk aversion that are characterized via preferences over lotteries.
