A consumption-investment problem modelled as a discounted Markov decision process

Hugo Cruz-Suárez, Raúl Montes-de-Oca, Gabriel Zacarías (2011)

Kybernetika

In this paper a problem of consumption and investment is presented as a model of a discounted Markov decision process with discrete-time. In this problem, it is assumed that the wealth is affected by a production function. This assumption gives the investor a chance to increase his wealth before the investment. For the solution of the problem there is established a suitable version of the Euler Equation (EE) which characterizes its optimal policy completely, that is, there are provided conditions...

A stochastic overlapping generation model with a continuum of agents

Emmanuelle Augeraud-Véron, Delphine David (2008)

Banach Center Publications

We consider a stochastic overlapping generations model for a continuum of individuals with finite lives in presence of a financial market. In this paper, an agent's heterogeneity is given by the dates of birth of the household members, in contrast to standard models, in which each agent has his own aversion coefficient on his utility function. By means of martingale arguments, we compute the agent's optimal consumption and portfolio. A characterization of interest rate trajectories is given by mixed-type...
