CRIS Current Research Information System
IRIS è la soluzione IT che facilita la raccolta e la gestione dei dati relativi alle attività e ai prodotti della ricerca. Fornisce a ricercatori, amministratori e valutatori gli strumenti per monitorare i risultati della ricerca, aumentarne la visibilità e allocare in modo efficace le risorse disponibili.
EnglishWe consider the problem of maximizing the expected utility for a power investor who can allocate his wealth in a stock, a defaultable security, and a money market account. The dynamics of these security prices are governed by geometric Brownian motions modulated by a hidden continuous-time finite-state Markov chain. We reduce the partially observed stochastic control problem to a complete observation risk-sensitive control problem via the filtered regime switching probabilities. We separate the latter into predefault and postdefault dynamic optimization subproblems and obtain two coupled Hamilton–Jacobi–Bellman (HJB) partial differential equations. We prove the existence and uniqueness of a globally bounded classical solution to each HJB equation and give the corresponding verification theorem. We provide a numerical analysis showing that the investor increases his holdings in stock as the filter probability of being in high-growth regimes increases, and decreases his credit risk exposure as the filter probability of being in high default risk regimes gets larger

| Abstract: | We consider the problem of maximizing the expected utility for a power investor who can allocate his wealth in a stock, a defaultable security, and a money market account. The dynamics of these security prices are governed by geometric Brownian motions modulated by a hidden continuous-time finite-state Markov chain. We reduce the partially observed stochastic control problem to a complete observation risk-sensitive control problem via the filtered regime switching probabilities. We separate the latter into predefault and postdefault dynamic optimization subproblems and obtain two coupled Hamilton–Jacobi–Bellman (HJB) partial differential equations. We prove the existence and uniqueness of a globally bounded classical solution to each HJB equation and give the corresponding verification theorem. We provide a numerical analysis showing that the investor increases his holdings in stock as the filter probability of being in high-growth regimes increases, and decreases his credit risk exposure as the filter probability of being in high default risk regimes gets larger |
