Mean-Variance Hedging under Additional Market Information
Thierbach, Frank - University of Bonn, Germany - 2002
In this paper we analyse the mean-variance hedging approach in an incomplete market under the assumption of additional … measures shrinks. Therefore, we obtain a modified mean-variance hedging problem, which takes into account the observed … obtain an explicit description of the optimal hedging strategy and an admissible, constrained variance-optimal signed …

On transaction-cost models in continuous-time markets
Poufinas, Thomas - In: International Journal of Financial Studies : open … 3 (2015) 2, pp. 102-135
Transaction-cost models in continuous-time markets are considered. Given that investors decide to buy or sell at certain time instants, we study the existence of trading strategies that reach a certain final wealth level in continuous-time markets, under the assumption that transaction costs,...

Risk management of interest rate derivative portfolios : a stochastic control approach
Kiriakopoulos, Konstantinos; Koulis, Alexandros - In: Journal of risk and financial management : JRFM 7 (2014) 4, pp. 130-149
In this paper we formulate the Risk Management Control problem in the interest rate area as a constrained stochastic portfolio optimization problem. The utility that we use can be any continuous function and based on the viscosity theory, the unique solution of the problem is guaranteed. The...

Pricing and Hedging Options on Assets with Options on Related Assets
Madan, Dilip B.; Wang, King - 2020
The problem studied is the pricing of options on the CBOE Skew index. The option pricing theory developed seeks to hedge the risk using positions in the market for options on a related asset and the option is then priced at the cost of this hedge. The theory is applied to pricing VIX options...

Asset pricing and consumption-portfolio choice with recursive utility and unspanned risk
Kraft, Holger; Seiferling, Thomas; Seifried, Frank Thomas - 2014 - First version: March 6, 2014; this version: June 1, 2014
We study consumption-portfolio and asset pricing frameworks with recursive preferences and unspanned risk. We show that in both cases, portfolio choice and asset pricing, the value function of the investor/representative agent can be characterized by a specific semilinear partial differential...

Asset prices in general equilibrium with recursive utility and illiquidity induced by transactions costs
Buss, Adrian; Uppal, Raman; Vilkov, Grigory - 2014 - This version: February 15, 2014
In this paper, we study the effect of proportional transaction costs on consumption-portfolio decisions and asset prices in a dynamic general equilibrium economy with a financial market that has a single-period bond and two risky stocks, one of which incurs the transaction cost. Our model has...
