In this paper we discuss a credit risk model with a pure jump Lévy process for the asset value and an unobservable random barrier. The default time is the first time when the asset value falls below the barrier. Using the indistinguishability of the intensity process and the likelihood process,...

We address a constrained utility maximization problem in an incomplete market for a utility function defined on the whole real line. We extend current research in two directions, firstly we allow for constraints on the portfolio process. Secondly we prove our results without relying on the...
