Optimal Surrender Strategies for Equity-Indexed Annuity Investors
An equity-indexed annuity (EIA) is a hybrid between a variable and a fixed annuity that allows the investor to participate in the stock market and earn at least a minimum interest rate. The investor sacrifices some of the upside potential for the downside protection of the minimum guarantee. Because EIAs allow investors to participate in equity growth without the downside risk, their popularity...
متن کاملPrudent Investors: The Asset Allocation of Public Pension Plans
After 2000, the vast majority of defined benefit (DB) pension plans encountered a decrease in their funding ratios, largely due to a drop in asset prices. It is possible that public sector pension plans may have acted imprudently by chasing returns, once they encountered underfunding. We identify four indicators for DB plans’ imprudent investment behavior: no portfolio rebalancing, employer con...
متن کاملOptimal Information Revelation by Informed Investors
This paper studies the structure of optimal finance contracts in an agency model of outside finance, when investors possess private information. We show that, depending on the intensity of the entrepreneur’s moral hazard problem, optimal contracts induce full, partial, or no revelation of the investor’s private information. A partial or non– revelation of information is optimal, when it mitigat...
متن کاملExact Properties of Measures of Optimal Investment for Institutional Investors
We revisit the problem of calculating the exact distribution of optimal investments in a mean variance world under multivariate normality. The context we consider is where problems in optimisation are addressed through the use of Monte-Carlo simulation. Our findings give clear insight as to when Monte-Carlo simulation will, and will not work. Whilst a number of authors have considered aspects o...
متن کاملOptimal basket liquidation with finite time horizon for CARA investors
We consider the finite-time optimal basket liquidation problem for a von Neumann-Morgenstern investor with constant absolute risk aversion (CARA). As underlying continuous-time liquidity model, we use a multi-asset extension of the nonlinear price impact model of Almgren (2003). We show that the expected utility of sales revenues, taken over a large class of adapted strategies, is maximized by ...
