A note on the worst case approach for a market with a stochastic interest rate

Abstract

We solve robust optimization problem and show the example of the market model for which the worst case measure is not a martingale measure. In our model the instantaneous interest rate is determined by the Hull-White model and the investor employs the HARA utility to measure his satisfaction.To protect against the model uncertainty he uses the worst case measure approach. The problem is formulated as a stochastic game between the investor and the market from the other side. PDE methods are used to find the saddle point and the precise verification argument is provided.
