Optimal consumption and investment in incomplete markets with general constraints
نویسندگان
چکیده
We study an optimal consumption and investment problem in a possibly incomplete market with general, not necessarily convex, stochastic constraints. We provide explicit solutions for investors with exponential, logarithmic as well as power utility and show that they are unique if the constraints are convex. Our approach is based on martingale methods that rely on results on the existence and uniqueness of solutions to BSDEs with drivers of quadratic growth.

Duality in constrained optimal investment and consumption problems: a synthesis
These lectures are all about optimal investment/consumption problems, usually with some ‘imperfection’, such as transaction costs, or constraints on the permitted portfolios, or different interest rates for borrowing and lending, or margin requirements for borrowing, or even just incomplete markets. Some time ago, Karatzas, Lehoczky & Shreve (1987), and Cox & Huang (1989) realised that the use ...
متن کاملAn Investigation into the Effect of CEO’s Perceptual Biases on Investment Efficiency and Financing Constraints of the Iranian Listed Firms
Efficient market hypothesis predicts that capital markets are beset with cer-tain biases which result from wrong estimation, and negatively influence shareholders’ expectations for higher returns, which in turn affects invest-ment efficiency, financial constraints and corporate performance efficacy in competitive markets, and eventually mitigates firm value. The present study aims at examining ...
متن کاملEquilibrium Asset Prices and Savings of Heterogeneous Agents in the Presence of Incomplete Markets and Portfolio Constraints
We study the quantitative properties of a dynamic general equilibrium model in which agents face both idiosyncratic and aggregate income risk, state-dependent borrowing constraints that bind in some but not all periods and markets are incomplete. Optimal individual consumption-savings plans and equilibrium asset prices are computed under various assumptions about income uncertainty. Then we inv...
متن کاملConsumption-investment optimization with Epstein-Zin utility in incomplete markets
In a market with stochastic investment opportunities, we study an optimal consumption investment problem for an agent with recursive utility of Epstein-Zin type. Focusing on the empirically relevant specification where both risk aversion and elasticity of intertemporal substitution are in excess of one, we characterize optimal consumption and investment strategies via backward stochastic differ...
متن کاملRisk Aversion and Optimal Portfolio Policies in Partial and General Equilibrium
In this article, we show how to analyze analytically the equilibrium policies and prices in an economy with a stochastic investment opportunity set and incomplete financial markets, when agents have power utility over both intermediate consumption and terminal wealth, and face portfolio constraints. The exact local comparative statics and approximate but analytical expression for the portfolio ...
