Nonconcave Portfolio Choice under Smooth Ambiguity

We study continuous-time portfolio choice with nonlinear payoffs under smooth ambiguity and Bayesian learning. We develop a general framework for dynamic, non-concave asset allocation that accommodates nonlinear payoffs, broad utility classes, and flexible ambiguity attitudes. Dynamic consistency is

Our model is based on a Merton’s portfolio and consumption problem, where, in addition, the agent can choose the time at which undertaking a costly l

Mean-Variance Stackelberg Games with Asymmetric Information

This paper considers two investors who perform mean-variance portfolio selection with asymmetric information: one knows the true stock dynamics, while the other has to infer the true dynamics from observed stock evolution. Their portfolio selection is interconnected through relative performance conc
