Abstract: 
When the asset market is incomplete, competitive equilibria are constrained suboptimal, and there is scope for Pareto improving interventions. Price regulation, which operates anonymously, on market variables, can be such a Pareto improving policy, even when the welfare effects of rationing are taken into account.
Subjects: 
incomplete asset market
fix-price equilibria
Pareto improvement.
