We consider the pricing problem facing a seller of a contingent claim. We assume that this seller has some general level of partial information, and that he is not allowed to sell short in certain assets. This pricing problem, which is our primal problem, is a constrained stochastic optimization problem. We derive a dual to this problem by using the conjugate duality theory introduced by Rockafellar. Furthermore, we give conditions for strong duality to hold. This gives a characterization of the price of the claim involving martingale- and super-martingale conditions on the optional projection of the price processes.  相似文献

We describe a challenging class of large mixed-integer second-order cone programming models which arise in computing the maximum price that a buyer is willing to disburse to acquire an American contingent claim in an incomplete financial market with no arbitrage opportunity. Taking the viewpoint of an investor who is willing to allow a controlled amount of risk by replacing the classical no-arbitrage assumption with a “no good-deal assumption” defined using an arbitrage-adjusted Sharpe ratio criterion we formulate the problem of computing the pricing and hedging of an American option in a financial market described by a multi-period, discrete-time, finite-state scenario tree as a large-scale mixed-integer conic optimization problem. We report computational results with off-the-shelf mixed-integer conic optimization software.  相似文献

We consider an equity-linked contract whose payoff depends on the lifetime of the policy holder and the stock price. We provide the best strategy for an insurance company assuming limited capital for the hedging. The main idea of the proof consists in reducing the construction of such strategies for a given claim to a problem of superhedging for a modified claim, which is the solution to a static optimization problem of the Neyman-Pearson type. This modified claim is given via some sets constructed in an iterative way. Some numerical examples are also given.  相似文献

We consider situations in which a principal tries to induce an agent to spend effort on accumulating a state variable that affects the well-being of both parties. The only incentive mechanism that the principal can use is a state-dependent transfer of her own utility to the agent. Formally, the model is a Stackelberg differential game in which the players use feedback strategies. Whereas in general Stackelberg differential games with feedback strategy spaces the leader’s optimization problem has non-standard features that make it extremely hard to solve, in the present case this problem can be rewritten as a standard optimal control problem. A linear-quadratic example is used to illustrate our approach.  相似文献

We present and further develop the concept of a universal contingent claim introduced by the author in 1995. This concept provides a unified framework for the analysis of a wide class of financial derivatives.A universal contingent claim describes the time evolution of a contingent payoff. In the simplest case of a European contingent claim, this time evolution is given by a family of nonnegative linear operators, the valuation operators. For more complex contingent claims, the time evolution that is given by the valuation operators can be interrupted by discrete or continuous activation of external influences that are described by, generally speaking, nonlinear operators, the activation operators. For example, Bermudan and American contingent claims represent discretely and continuously activated universal contingent claims with the activation operators being the nonlinear maximum operators.We show that the value of a universal contingent claim is given by a multiplicative measure introduced by the author in 1995. Roughly speaking, a multiplicative measure is an operator-valued (in general, an abstract measure with values in a partial monoid) function on a semiring of sets which is multiplicative on the union of disjoint sets. We also show that the value of a universal contingent claim is determined by a, generally speaking, impulsive semilinear evolution equation.  相似文献

Within the class dominant strategy incentive compatible mechanisms, we show that there exists an optimal contracting mechanism for the principal for a version of the incomplete information principal-agent problem in which several agents compete for a contract and the principal selects an agent via a contract auction. In our auction model, we assume that the principal and the agents are risk averse, and we allow for uncountably many agent types. We also assume that the principal's probability measure over type profiles in such that correlation between agent's types is possible. Thus, we do not require that agents' types be independently distributed. Finally, we impose limited liability constraints upon the set of contracts. Due to the nature of the individual rationality and incentive compatibility constraints, the existence problem is nonstandard and novel existence arguments are required. We prove existence using a measurable selection result and a new notion of compactness called K-compactness.  相似文献

Multi-issue allocation situations are used to study the problem of having to divide an estate among a group of agents. The claim of each agent is a vector specifying the amount claimed by each agent on each issue. We present several axiomatic characterizations of the constrained equal awards rule generalizing some characterizations of these rules in bankruptcy situations.  相似文献

The paper studies the problem of minimizing coherent risk measures of shortfall for general discrete‐time financial models with cone‐constrained trading strategies, as developed by Pham and Touzi. It is shown that the optimal strategy is obtained by super‐hedging a contingent claim, which is represented as a Neyman–Pearson‐type random variable.  相似文献
