Second Fundamental Theorem of Asset Pricing

Abstract: The second fundamental theorem of asset pricing (in short, sft) concerns the mathematical characterization of the economic concept of market completeness for liquid and frictionless markets with an arbitrary number of assets. The theorem establishes the mathematical necessary and sufficient conditions in order to guarantee that every contingent claim on the market can be duplicated with a portfolio of primitive assets. For finite assets economies, completeness (i.e. perfect replication of every claim on the ma… Show more

“…This result holds irrespective of whether the market contains a finite or infinite number of assets. Similar statements can be found, e.g., in , as well as Biagini (2010). Hence, in every complete financial market we are always able to find a unique representation of asset prices and fair values.…”

“…9 For this reason, the requirements on {H t } that are mentioned by Harrison and Pliska (1981) are too strict (Jarrow and Madan, 1991). See also Remark 1.3 in Biagini (2010). 10 According to Delbaen and Schachermayer (1994, Definition 2.7), the strategy {H t } is called "a-admissible" if and only if t 0 H s dP s ≥ −a for a given number a > 0 but just "admissible" if and only if t 0 H s dP s ≥ −a for some a ≥ 0. a−V 0 numéraire assets at t = 0, we obtain the strategy H a t , which has a nonnegative discounted value process V a t with V a t = a + t 0 H a s dP s for all t ≥ 0.…”

“…Lemma A.1 in Appendix A shows that, in the market without model uncertainty, the above riskneutral default intensity is uniquely determined under a mild invertibility condition on the matrix of bond depreciations (see Lemma A.1 for the precise statement). By the Second Fundamental Theorem of Asset Pricing (see for example Theorem 1.2 in Biagini (2010)), this implies that the market model consisting of bank account and risky bonds is complete.…”

“…The second fundamental theorem considers the more special case when a market is complete, i.e., when every European contingent claim can be replicated perfectly by a trading strategy, see [6] for an overview and literature. It characterizes completeness by uniqueness of the prices for claims.…”
