Accordingly, the literature constructs martingale measures by generalizing the concept of arbitrage (free lunch, free lunch with bounded risk, etc.) or introducing the theory of large financial markets. This paper does not modify the definition of arbitrage and addresses the caveat by drawing on projective systems of probability measures. Thus we analyze those situations for which one can provide a projective system of σ−additive measures whose projective limit may be interpreted as a risk-neutral probability of an arbitrage free market. Hence the Fundamental Theorem of Asset Pricing is extended so that it can apply for models with infinitely many assets.application/pdfeng©Birkhäuser Verlag BaselInfinitely many securitiesArbitrageMartingale measureProjective systemInfinitely many securities and the fundamental theorem of asset pricingresearch articleEmpresa10.1007/s00009-007-0121-2open access3213341Mediterranean Journal of Mathematics4
