Abstract

We consider financial networks where agents are linked to each other via mutual liabilities. The pairwise netting proportional rule performs one round of pairwise netting between agents that have mutual liabilities and next uses the proportional rule to determine payments. The pairwise netting proportional rule satisfies the basic requirements of claims boundedness, limited liability, priority of creditors, and continuity. It is the only rule to also satisfy the desirable properties of net impartiality, an agent that has two creditors with the same net claims pays the same amount to both creditors on top of pairwise netting, and invariance to mitosis.
