Abstract: | In addition to the ability of the linear plus exponential utility function to reflect increasing appreciation for money, risk aversion, and decreasing risk aversion, it is consistent with a risk-return representation in which return is measured by expected value. In this paper the authors present a new condition, strong one-switch, that characterizes the linear plus exponential family. |
