In this paper, we consider the optimal reinsurance and investment problem for the insurance company, where the insurer can purchase per-loss reinsurance and invest the surplus in a financial market, and the insurer’s claim liabilities and capital gains in financial market are negatively...

We determine the optimal investment strategy in a Black-Scholes financial market to minimize the so-called probability of drawdown, namely, the probability that the value of an investment portfolio reaches some fixed proportion of its maximum value to date. We assume that the portfolio is...

We formulate an infinite-horizon optimal investment and consumption problem, in which an individual forms a habit based on the exponentially weighted average of her past consumption rate, and in which she invests in a Black-Scholes market. The individual is constrained to consume at a rate...

We consider an optimal investment problem for an investor facing both constant and proportional transaction costs and study the limit as the constant cost tends to zero. Combining the stochastic Perron's method with stability arguments for viscosity solutions, we show that the value function...
