This paper considers the problem of optimal liquidation of a position in a risky security in a financial market, where price evolution are risky and trades have an impact on price as well as uncertainty in the filling orders. The problem is…
In this paper we study the problem of optimal dividend payment strategy which maximizes the expected discounted sum of dividends to a multidimensional set up of n associated insurance companies where the surplus process follows an…
In this paper, we extend the jump-diffusion model proposed by Davis and Lleo to include jumps in asset prices as well as valuation factors. The criterion, following earlier work by Bielecki, Pliska, Nagai and others, is risk-sensitive…
The optimal dividend problem by De Finetti (1957) has been recently generalized to the spectrally negative L\'evy model where the implementation of optimal strategies draws upon the computation of scale functions and their derivatives. This…
This paper treats the Merton problem how to invest in safe assets and risky assets to maximize an investor's utility, given by investment opportunities modeled by a $d$-dimensional state process. The problem is represented by a partial…
In this paper we consider an optimal investment and reinsurance problem with partially unknown model parameters which are allowed to be learned. The model includes multiple business lines and dependence between them. The aim is to maximize…
We give a review of the state of the art with regard to the dividend problem.
Linear contracts are ubiquitous in practice, yet optimal contract theory often prescribes complex, nonlinear structures. We provide a distributional robustness justification for linear contracts. We study a principal-agent problem where the…
We consider the general class of spectrally positive L\'evy risk processes, which are appropriate for businesses with continuous expenses and lump sum gains whose timing and sizes are stochastic. Motivated by the fact that dividends cannot…
We introduce a price impact model which accounts for finite market depth, tightness and resilience. Its coupled bid- and ask-price dynamics induce convex liquidity costs. We provide existence of an optimal solution to the classical problem…
We introduce a longevity feature to the classical optimal dividend problem by adding a constraint on the time of ruin of the firm. We extend the results in \cite{HJ15}, now in context of one-sided L\'evy risk models. We consider de…
We introduce a new technique to optimize a linear cost function subject to a one-dimensional affine homogeneous quadratic integral inequality, i.e., the requirement that a homogeneous quadratic integral functional, affine in the…
In this paper, we model the cash surplus (or equity) of a risky business with a Brownian motion. Owners can take cash out of the surplus in the form of "dividends", subject to transaction costs. However, if the surplus hits 0 then ruin…
We study the optimal dividend problem for a firm's manager who has partial information on the profitability of the firm. The problem is formulated as one of singular stochastic control with partial information on the drift of the underlying…
In this paper we propose a new way of proving the value of a firm that is currently producing a certain product and faces the option to exit the market. The problem of optimal exiting is an optimal stopping problem, that can be solved using…
We study the optimal financing and dividend distribution problem with restricted dividend rates in a diffusion type surplus model where the drift and volatility coefficients are general functions of the level of surplus and the external…
In this paper we propose and solve an optimal dividend problem with capital injections over a finite time horizon. The surplus dynamics obeys a linearly controlled drifted Brownian motion that is reflected at the origin, dividends give rise…
The first motivation of our paper is to explore further the idea that, in risk control problems, it may be profitable to base decisions both on the position of the underlying process Xt and on its supremum Xt := sup 0$\le$s$\le$t Xs.…
In this work we study a finite horizon optimal liquidation problem with multiplicative price impact in algorithmic trading, using market orders. We analyze the case when an agent is trading on a market with two financial assets, whose…
We propose an optimal portfolio problem in the incomplete market where the underlying assets depend on economic factors with delayed effects, such models can describe the short term forecasting and the interaction with time lag among…
