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 find optimal trading policies for long-term investors with constant relative risk aversion and constant investment opportunities, which include one safe asset, liquid risky assets, and an illiquid risky asset trading with proportional costs. Access to liquid assets creates a diversification...

An agent invests in two types of futures contracts, whose prices are possibly correlated arithmetic Brownian motions, and invests in a money market account with a constant interest rate. The agent pays a transaction cost for trading in futures proportional to the size of the trade. She also...

We consider an agent who invests in a stock and a money market account with the goal of maximizing the utility of her investment at the final time T, in the presence of a positive proportional transaction cost Λ0. The utility function is of the form U(c)=c^{p}/p for p1, and p no equal to zero....

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...

We consider the terminal wealth utility maximization problem from the point of view of a portfolio manager who is paid by an incentive scheme, which is given as a convex function g of the terminal wealth. The manager's own utility function U is assumed to be smooth and strictly concave, however...
