Reputation and Persistence of Adverse Selection in Secondary Loan Markets

Abstract: The volume of new issuances in secondary loan markets fluctuates over time and falls when collateral values fall. We develop a model with adverse selection and reputation that is consistent with such fluctuations. Adverse selection ensures that the volume of trade falls when collateral values fall. Without reputation, the equilibrium has separation, adverse selection is quickly resolved and trade volume is independent of collateral value. With reputation, the equilibrium has pooling and adverse selection persi… Show more

“…As discussed in the section of generalizability, we expect our conclusions to hold for multiple group insurance products in various markets of a similar nature, for example, U.S. small-group health insurance. Our results may also shed light on markets other than insurance characterized by information asymmetry, where the existence and persistence of adverse selection are also relevant (see, e.g., Chari, Shourideh, and Zetlin-Jones, 2014).…”

“…I differ in that I study the macroeconomic dynamics of secondary markets and emphasize the endogenous evolution of intermediary wealth. Chari, Shourideh, and Zetlin-Jones (2014) show how secondary markets may collapse suddenly in the presence of adverse selection. I study how growing secondary markets can lead to falling asset quality.…”
