Abstract

We study investment and risk sharing in complete markets when agents internalize their impact on asset prices. Quantity shading of state-contingent claims by buyers and sellers generates excess exposure to idiosyncratic risk and low asset pledgeability. This depresses investment, the risk-free rate, and aggregate productivity. Rents from market power distort and misalign agents' marginal valuations of state-contingent returns, rendering risk-sharing constrained inefficient and \emph{as if} markets were competitive but incomplete. When there is limited commitment, sellers face borrowing constraints that limit their ability to strategically restrict supply, thereby reallocating market power to buyers. When markets are decentralized, agents distort investment to capture arbitrage profits by acting as pass-through intermediaries.
