Forward–backward systems for expected utility maximization

In this paper we deal with the utility maximization problem with general utility functions including power utility with liability. We derive a new approach in which we reduce the resulting control problem to the study of a system of fully-coupled Forward–Backward Stochastic Differential Equations (FBSDEs) that promise to be accessible to numerical treatment.
