Returns on illiquid assets: are they fair games?
Krainer, John; LeRoy, Stephen F.
(1997)
The simplest tests of capital market efficiency are tests of the fair game model: conditional expected returns less the interest rate are equal to zero. The fair game model is thought to obtain only when markets are perfectly liquid. We show that this conjecture is false. In a model of the housing market where heterogeneous agents must search for partners in order to trade, excess returns on housing wealth are fair games if, as is appropriate, returns are defined to include shadow prices measuring illiquidity.

Bank Regulation Affects Monetary Policy Transmission
Paul, Pascal; Krainer, John; Greenwald, Daniel L.
(2026-10-13)
How does monetary policy impact banks’ lending behavior when interest rate changes revalue their securities? Detailed supervisory data show that banks with larger losses on securities during the 2022–23 monetary policy tightening cycle extended less credit to firms. This spillover effect was especially strong for securities that were marked to market and not hedged, and for banks required to include unrealized losses in regulatory capital. These conditions lead to larger reductions in corporate debt and investment, increasing monetary policy’s impact on the economy.
