Effects of Purchasing Power Risk on Portfolio Demand for Money

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  06 April 2009

Extract

The problem of the portfolio demand for money was first rigorously studied by Tobin [22]. It has been analyzed since then, by Hicks [8] and Arrow [1], among many others. Many interesting results and implications regarding liquidity preference and risk-taking are derived in these studies. However, the effect of purchasing power risk on liquidity preference has been overlooked in these studies.
