In this companion paper to “Optimal Investment with Transaction Costs and Stochastic Volatility Part I: Infinite Horizon”, "http://ssrn.com/abstract=2374150" http://ssrn.com/abstract=2374150, we give an accuracy proof for the finite time optimal investment and consumption problem under fast...

We develop a novel framework for computing the total valuation adjustment (XVA) of a European claim accounting for funding costs, counterparty credit risk, and collateralization. Based on no-arbitrage arguments, we derive the nonlinear backward stochastic differential equations (BSDEs)...

We price a contingent claim liability using the utility indifference argument. We consider an agent with exponential utility, who invests in a stock and a money market account with the goal of maximizing the utility of his investment at the final time T in the presence of a proportional...

The problem of portfolio allocation in the context of stocks evolving in random environments, that is with volatility and returns depending on random factors, has attracted a lot of attention. The problem of maximizing a power utility at a terminal time with only one random factor can be...
