The key novelty in our model is that investors can h old and manage portfolios of OTC-traded assets. We characterize the statio nary equilibrium in closed form and derive natural proxies for asset-speci fic measures of market liquidity including trade volume\, price dispersion \, and price impact. Our theoretical results uncover how the general equil ibrium (GE) effects shape the patterns of liquidity measures in the cross section of OTC-traded assets. For example\, heightened search frictions in one asset trigger fire sales in other assets by increasing other assets’ trade volume but also making them trade with larger price impact and price dispersion. Based on data from the US corporate bond market and the credi t default swap (CDS) market\, our empirical tests confirm these key cross- sectional liquidity implications of our general-equilibrium OTC framework. \n DTSTART:20260227T153000Z DTEND:20260227T164500Z LOCATION:Room 245\, Bronfman Building\, CA\, QC\, Montreal\, H3A 1G5\, 1001 rue Sherbrooke Ouest SUMMARY:Finance Area Seminar: Semih Uslu URL:/desautels/channels/event/finance-area-seminar-sem ih-uslu-371472 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
