ASSET PRICING WITH IN- AND OUTFLOW CONSTRAINTS: THEORY AND EMPIRICAL EVIDENCE FROM SWEDEN

The paper analyzes asset pricing and portfolio choice when domestic investors collectively cannot hold foreign assets beyond a maximum value. We add the constraint that foreign investors cannot hold more than a fraction of the shares of domestic assets. Consistent with Swedish stock market data, both domestic and foreign investors pay premiums for investing in the other country's assets. Some empirical observations are inconsistent with the CAPM framework.
