Seit Jahrzehnten investiert nur jeder vierte bis fünfte Haushalt in Deutschland in Aktien. Mit den drei Börsengängen der Deutschen Telekom 1996 bis 2000 wurden die Deutschen in Aktienlaune versetzt.

Der Frauenanteil ist hingegen überdurchschnittlich. Dies gilt vor allem für die systemrelevanten ...

From standard portfolio-choice theory it is well-understood that background risk, overwhelmingly due to wage risk, is one of the central determinants of individuals’ portfolio composition: higher background risk reduces risky investments. However, if background risk is negatively correlated with financial market risk, higher background risk implies more risky investment. We quantify the influence of ...
