Abstract
A process defined by a continuum of random variables with non-degenerate idiosyncratic risk is not jointly measurable with respect to the usual product σ-algebra. We show that the process is jointly measurable in a one-way Fubini extension of the product space if and only if there is a countably generated σ-algebra given which the random variables are essentially pairwise conditionally independent, while their conditional distributions also satisfy a suitable joint measurability condition. Applications include: (i) new characterizations of essential pairwise independence and essential pairwise exchangeability; (ii) when a one-way Fubini extension exists, the need for the sample space to be saturated if there is an essentially random regular conditional distribution with respect to the usual product σ-algebra.
