Abstract
In this paper, we study an investment problem in which two asymmetric firms face competition and the regime characterizing economic conditions follows Markov switching. We derive the value functions and investment thresholds of a leader and a follower. One of the main results is that the equity risk premium in a recession regime is higher than that in a boom regime. The result theoretically supports the empirical finding in contrast to previous theoretical papers without regime switching.
