Abstract |
: |
We prove that the coefficient of absolute prudence is greater than k - times coefficient of absolute risk aversion for the utility function if and only if the coefficient of absolute prudence is (3-k) times the coefficient of absolute risk aversion for the inverse utility function. Moreover this is also equivalent to (k-2)-concavity of the first derivative of the inverse utility function. |
