Arrow security

An arrow security is an instrument with a fixed payout of one unit in a specified state and no payout in other states.[1] It is a type of hypothetical asset used in the arrow market structure model. In contrast to the Arrow-Debreu market structure model, an Arrow market is a market in which the individual agents engage in trading assets at every time period t. In an Arrow-Debreu model, trading occurs only once at the beginning of time. An Arrow Security is an asset traded in an Arrow market structure model which encompasses a complete market. Arrow Security is also called State Contingent Claim, Supershare Option.
