We consider the problem of a government that wants to manage the country's debt-to- GDP (gross domestic product) ratio. The latter evolves stochastically in continuous time, and its drift is given by the interest rate on government debt, net of the growth rate of GDP. We further allow the...

In this paper we propose and solve an optimal dividend problem with capital injections over a finite time horizon. The surplus dynamics obeys a linearly controlled drifted Brownian motion that is reflected at zero, dividends give rise to time-dependent instantaneous marginal profits, whereas...
