In contrast with the classical models of frictionless financial markets, market models with proportional transaction costs, even satisfying usual no-arbitrage properties, may admit arbitrage opportunities of the second kind. This means that there are self-financing portfolios with initial...

Inspired by the theory of financial markets with transaction costs, we study a concept of essential supremum in the framework where a random partial order in View the MathML source is lifted to the space View the MathML source of d-dimensional random variables. In contrast to the classical...

Leland’s approach to the hedging of derivatives under proportional transaction costs is based on an approximate replication of the European-type contingent claim V T using the classical Black–Scholes formula with a suitably enlarged volatility. The formal mathematical framework is a scheme...

We study the Leland model for hedging portfolios in the presence of a constant proportional transaction costs coefficient. The modified Leland's strategy recently defined by the second author, contrarily to the classical one, ensures the asymptotic replication of a large class of payoff. In this...

We extend the Robust No Free Lunch (RNFL) theorem formulated for discrete-time models with proportional transaction costs to general continuous-time settings. We prove that the (RNFL) condition is equivalent to the existence of a strictly consistent price system, i.e. a martingale evolving in...

The post-crisis financial reforms address the need for systemic regulation, focused not only on individual banks but also on the whole financial system. The regulator principal objective is to set banks' capital requirements equal to international minimum standards in order to mimimise systemic...

We study the Leland model for hedging portfolios in the presence of a constant proportional transaction costs coefficient. The modi fied Leland's strategy defi ned in [2], contrarily to the classical one, ensures the asymptotic replication of a large class of payoff . In this setting, we prove a...
