Motivated by the problems of the conventional model in rationalizing market data, we derive the equilibrium interest rate and risk premiums using recursive utility in a continuous-time model. We use the stochastic maximum principle to analyze the model. This method uses forward/backward...

Allocation between factor portfolios can bring significant advantages over traditional portfolio optimization performed among individual assets or asset classes. One such advantage is a substantial dimension reduction when one's attention turns from many assets to few factors. This, however,...

We develop the idea of using Monte Carlo sampling of random portfolios to solve portfolio investment problems. In this first paper we explore the need for more general optimization tools, and consider the means by which constrained random portfolios may be generated. A practical scheme for the...
