New conditions for the existence of Radner equilibrium with infinitely many states

Abstract: In atomless differential information economies, equilibria are known not to exist prevalently even when agents are risk averse expected utility maximizers. The notion of prevalence involves essentially picking an economy at random. In this paper, however, we establish existence results with economically meaningful assumptions on the information structure. We obtain existence when agents have independent information, and also when the total endowment of the economy is common knowledge.
