Book A Shadow price Approach of the Problem of Optimal Investment consumption with Proportional Transaction Costs and Utilities of Power Type

Download or read book A Shadow price Approach of the Problem of Optimal Investment consumption with Proportional Transaction Costs and Utilities of Power Type written by Jin Hyuk Choi and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We revisit the optimal investment and consumption model of Davis and Norman (1990) and Shreve and Soner (1994), following a shadow-price approach similar to that of Kallsen and Muhle-Karbe (2010). Making use of the completeness of the model without transaction costs, we reformulate and reduce the Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman equation for this singular stochastic control problem to a non-standard free-boundary problem for a first-order ODE with an integral constraint. Having shown that the free boundary problem has a smooth solution, we use it to construct the solution of the original optimal investment/consumption problem in a self-contained manner and without any recourse to the dynamic programming principle. By analyzing the properties of the free boundary problem, we provide an explicit characterization of model parameters for which the value function is finite. Furthermore, we prove that the value function, as well as the slopes of the lines demarcating the no-trading region, can be expanded as a series of integer powers of [lambda superscript 1/3]. The coefficients of arbitrary order in this expansion can be computed.

Book Optimal Investment and Consumption with Transaction Costs

Download or read book Optimal Investment and Consumption with Transaction Costs written by Steven E. Shreve and published by . This book was released on 1990 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: "An agent can invest in a high-yield bond and a low-yield bond, holding either long or short positions in either asset. Any movement of money between these two assets incurs a transaction cost proportional to the size of the transaction. The low-yield bond is liquid in the sense that wealth invested in this bond can be consumed directly without a transaction cost; wealth invested in the high-yield bond can be consumed only by first moving it into the low-yield bond. The problem of optimal consumption and investment on an infinite planning horizon is solved for a class of utility functions larger than the class of power functions."

Book Consumption Investment Optimization Problem in a L  vy Financial Model with Transaction Costs

Download or read book Consumption Investment Optimization Problem in a L vy Financial Model with Transaction Costs written by Youri Kabanov and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We consider a consumption-investment optimization problem for the Kabanov model when the proportional transaction costs rate is constant and the prices are modeled by a Lévy process. We naturally extend the preliminary work of [4] to portfolio processes that are only supposed to be làdlàg. This allows to suitably rebalance portfolio processes which jumps induced by the Lévy process and identify an optimal strategy in the two dimensional case.

Book Liquidity Premium for Capital Asset Pricing with Transaction Costs

Download or read book Liquidity Premium for Capital Asset Pricing with Transaction Costs written by Steven E. Shreve and published by . This book was released on 1993 with total page 17 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: "An agent solves an infinite-horizon consumption-investment problem when the investment possibilities are a constant-interest-rate, risk-free asset and a stock, modelled as a geometric Brownian motion. There are proportional transaction costs associated with moving wealth between these two assets. The direct utility for consumption is of the form 1/p c[superscript p] for some p [element of] (0,1). The sensitivity of the indirect utility function (or value function) to small transaction costs is found to be of the order of the transaction cost to the 2/3 power."

Download or read book Asset Pricing written by John H. Cochrane and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2009-04-11 with total page 560 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner of the prestigious Paul A. Samuelson Award for scholarly writing on lifelong financial security, John Cochrane's Asset Pricing now appears in a revised edition that unifies and brings the science of asset pricing up to date for advanced students and professionals. Cochrane traces the pricing of all assets back to a single idea--price equals expected discounted payoff--that captures the macro-economic risks underlying each security's value. By using a single, stochastic discount factor rather than a separate set of tricks for each asset class, Cochrane builds a unified account of modern asset pricing. He presents applications to stocks, bonds, and options. Each model--consumption based, CAPM, multifactor, term structure, and option pricing--is derived as a different specification of the discounted factor. The discount factor framework also leads to a state-space geometry for mean-variance frontiers and asset pricing models. It puts payoffs in different states of nature on the axes rather than mean and variance of return, leading to a new and conveniently linear geometrical representation of asset pricing ideas. Cochrane approaches empirical work with the Generalized Method of Moments, which studies sample average prices and discounted payoffs to determine whether price does equal expected discounted payoff. He translates between the discount factor, GMM, and state-space language and the beta, mean-variance, and regression language common in empirical work and earlier theory. The book also includes a review of recent empirical work on return predictability, value and other puzzles in the cross section, and equity premium puzzles and their resolution. Written to be a summary for academics and professionals as well as a textbook, this book condenses and advances recent scholarship in financial economics.

Book excerpt: In this companion paper to “Optimal Investment with Transaction Costs and Stochastic Volatility Part I: Infinite Horizon”, "http://ssrn.com/abstract=2374150" http://ssrn.com/abstract=2374150, we give an accuracy proof for the finite time optimal investment and consumption problem under fast mean-reverting stochastic volatility of a joint asymptotic expansion in a time scale parameter and the small transaction cost. The supplemental appendix accompanies this paper is, available at "http://ssrn.com/abstract=3234374" http://ssrn.com/abstract=3234374, in which we prove the verification theorem that the value function is a viscosity solution of the HJB equation.

Book Optimal Consumption and Investment with Bankruptcy

Download or read book Optimal Consumption and Investment with Bankruptcy written by Suresh P. Sethi and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 434 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents papers on continuous-time consumption investment models by Suresh Sethi and various co-authors. Sir Isaac Newton said that he saw so far because he stood on the shoulders of gi ants. Giants upon whose shoulders Professor Sethi and colleagues stand are Robert Merton, particularly Merton's (1969, 1971, 1973) seminal papers, and Paul Samuelson, particularly Samuelson (1969). Karatzas, Lehoczky, Sethi and Shreve (1986), henceforth KLSS, re produced here as Chapter 2, reexamine the model proposed by Mer ton. KLSS use methods of modern mathematical analysis, taking care to prove the existence of integrals, check the existence and (where appro priate) the uniqueness of solutions to equations, etc. KLSS find that un der some conditions Merton's solution is correct; under others, it is not. In particular, Merton's solution for aHARA utility-of-consumption is correct for some parameter values and not for others. The problem with Merton's solution is that it sometimes violates the constraints against negative wealth and negative consumption stated in Merton (1969) and presumably applicable in Merton (1971 and 1973). This not only affects the solution at the zero-wealth, zero-consumption boundaries, but else where as well. Problems with Merton's solution are analyzed in Sethi and Taksar (1992), reproduced here as Chapter 3.

Book Dynamic Asset Pricing Theory

Download or read book Dynamic Asset Pricing Theory written by Darrell Duffie and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2010-01-27 with total page 488 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a thoroughly updated edition of Dynamic Asset Pricing Theory, the standard text for doctoral students and researchers on the theory of asset pricing and portfolio selection in multiperiod settings under uncertainty. The asset pricing results are based on the three increasingly restrictive assumptions: absence of arbitrage, single-agent optimality, and equilibrium. These results are unified with two key concepts, state prices and martingales. Technicalities are given relatively little emphasis, so as to draw connections between these concepts and to make plain the similarities between discrete and continuous-time models. Readers will be particularly intrigued by this latest edition's most significant new feature: a chapter on corporate securities that offers alternative approaches to the valuation of corporate debt. Also, while much of the continuous-time portion of the theory is based on Brownian motion, this third edition introduces jumps--for example, those associated with Poisson arrivals--in order to accommodate surprise events such as bond defaults. Applications include term-structure models, derivative valuation, and hedging methods. Numerical methods covered include Monte Carlo simulation and finite-difference solutions for partial differential equations. Each chapter provides extensive problem exercises and notes to the literature. A system of appendixes reviews the necessary mathematical concepts. And references have been updated throughout. With this new edition, Dynamic Asset Pricing Theory remains at the head of the field.

Book Theory of Valuation

Download or read book Theory of Valuation written by Sudipto Bhattacharya and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2005 with total page 387 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first edition of Theory of Valuation is a collection of important papers in the field of theoretical financial economics published from 1973 to 1986, and original accompanying essays contributed by eminent researchers including Robert C Merton, Edward C Prescott, Stephen A Ross, and Joseph E Stiglitz.Since then, with the perspective of major theoretical strides in the field, the book has more than fulfilled its original expectations. The realization that it remains today a compendium of classic articles and a must-read for any serious student in theoretical financial economics, has prompted the publication of a new edition.This second edition presents a summary statement of significant research in theoretical financial economics for both the specialist and non-specialist financial economist. It also provides material for PhD-level courses covering valuation theory, and elective reading for advanced Master's and undergraduate courses.In addition to reproducing the original contributions, this edition includes the seminal paper by Edward C Prescott and Rajnish Mehra, ?Recursive Competitive Equilibrium: The Case of Homogeneous Households,? originally published in Econometrica in 1980.

The text makes significant use of students' mathematical skills, but always in connection with interesting applied problems.

Book Statistical Models and Methods for Financial Markets

Download or read book Statistical Models and Methods for Financial Markets written by Tze Leung Lai and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2008-07-25 with total page 363 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The idea of writing this bookarosein 2000when the ?rst author wasassigned to teach the required course STATS 240 (Statistical Methods in Finance) in the new M. S. program in ?nancial mathematics at Stanford, which is an interdisciplinary program that aims to provide a master’s-level education in applied mathematics, statistics, computing, ?nance, and economics. Students in the programhad di?erent backgroundsin statistics. Some had only taken a basic course in statistical inference, while others had taken a broad spectrum of M. S. - and Ph. D. -level statistics courses. On the other hand, all of them had already taken required core courses in investment theory and derivative pricing, and STATS 240 was supposed to link the theory and pricing formulas to real-world data and pricing or investment strategies. Besides students in theprogram,thecoursealso attractedmanystudentsfromother departments in the university, further increasing the heterogeneity of students, as many of them had a strong background in mathematical and statistical modeling from the mathematical, physical, and engineering sciences but no previous experience in ?nance. To address the diversity in background but common strong interest in the subject and in a potential career as a “quant” in the ?nancialindustry,thecoursematerialwascarefullychosennotonlytopresent basic statistical methods of importance to quantitative ?nance but also to summarize domain knowledge in ?nance and show how it can be combined with statistical modeling in ?nancial analysis and decision making. The course material evolved over the years, especially after the second author helped as the head TA during the years 2004 and 2005.
