Dynamic portfolio optimization with risk management and strategy constraints

Csilla Krommerová, Igor Melicherčík (2014)

Kybernetika

We investigate the problem of power utility maximization considering risk management and strategy constraints. The aim of this paper is to obtain admissible dynamic portfolio strategies. In case the floor is guaranteed with probability one, we provide two admissible solutions, the option based portfolio insurance in the constrained model, and the alternative method and show that none of the solutions dominate the other. In case the floor is guaranteed partially, we provide one admissible solution,...

Dynamic programming for an investment/consumption problem in illiquid markets with regime-switching

Paul Gassiat, Fausto Gozzi, Huyên Pham (2015)

Banach Center Publications

We consider an illiquid financial market with different regimes modeled by a continuous time finite-state Markov chain. The investor can trade a stock only at the discrete arrival times of a Cox process with intensity depending on the market regime. Moreover, the risky asset price is subject to liquidity shocks, which change its rate of return and volatility, and induce jumps on its dynamics. In this setting, we study the problem of an economic agent optimizing her expected utility from consumption...

Dynamic Programming Principle for tug-of-war games with noise

Juan J. Manfredi, Mikko Parviainen, Julio D. Rossi (2012)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

We consider a two-player zero-sum-game in a bounded open domain Ω described as follows: at a point x ∈ Ω, Players I and II play an ε-step tug-of-war game with probability α, and with probability β (α + β = 1), a random point in the ball of radius ε centered at x is chosen. Once the game position reaches the boundary, Player II pays Player I the amount given by a fixed payoff function F. We give a detailed proof of the fact that...

Dynamic reforming of a quasi pay-as-you-go social security system within a discrete stochastic multidimensional framework using optimal control methods

Athanasios A. Pantelous, Alexandros A. Zimbidis (2008)

Applicationes Mathematicae

In many western economies, the phenomenon of ageing population implies that the large Pay-As-You-Go (PAYGO) social security system will run into several severe financial difficulties. In that direction, this paper constructs a discrete-time stochastic model for a quasi PAYGO social security system to allow the potential accumulation of a special (contingency) fund, which can oscillate so as to absorb fluctuations in the various system parameters involved. The basic difference equation is analytically...

Dynamic term structure modelling with default and mortality risk: new results on existence and monotonicity

Thorsten Schmidt, Stefan Tappe (2015)

Banach Center Publications

This paper considers dynamic term structure models like the ones appearing in portfolio credit risk modelling or life insurance. We study general forward rate curves driven by infinitely many Brownian motions and an integer-valued random measure, generalizing existing approaches in the literature. A precise characterization of absence of arbitrage in such markets is given in terms of a suitable criterion for no asymptotic free lunch (NAFL). From this, we obtain drift conditions which are equivalent...

Dynamics of social networks: A deterministic approach

David Pearson, Mark McCartney (2002)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

Our aim is to model the dynamics of social networks, which comprises the problem of how people get to know each other, like each other, detest each other, etc. Most existing models are stochastic in nature and, obviously, based on random events. Our approach is deterministic and based on ordinary differential equations. This should not be seen as a challenge to stochastic models, but rather as a complement.

Ecological-Economic Model of the Region: Information Technology, Forecasting and Optimal Control

V. Gurman, V. Baturin (2009)

Mathematical Modelling of Natural Phenomena

The paper considers a methodology of mathematical modeling of ecological-economic processes at the regional level. The basis of the model is formed by equations, which describe two interacting blocks: economic and ecological ones. Equations of the economic block are represented by relations of generalized inter-branch balance, while the ecological part is described in terms of differential equations with deviations with respect to some given state of natural resources. Issues of i) information...

Economic assessment of the Champagne wine qualitative stock mecanism

Jacques Laye, Maximilien Laye (2006)

RAIRO - Operations Research

In the wine AOC system, the regulation of quantities performed by the professional organizations is aimed to smooth the variations of the quality of the wine due to the variations in the climate that affect the quality of the grapes. Nevertheless, this regulation could be damaging to the consumers due to the price increase resulting from the reduction of the quantities sold on the market. We propose a stochastic control model and a simulation tool able to measure the effects of this mechanism...
