This paper studies a finite-horizon portfolio selection problem with non-concave terminal utility and proportional transaction costs, in which the commonly used concavification principle for terminal value is no longer applicable. We establish a proper theoretical characterization of this problem vi
The existence of optimal contracts of the principal-agent problem is a long-standing problem. According to the general framework in Cvitanić et al. [2], this existence can be derived from the existence of a classical solution to a degenerated fully nonlinear parabolic partial differential equation p
We consider Merton’s problem with proportional transaction costs. It is well known that the optimal investment strategy is characterized by two trading boundaries, the buy boundary and the sell boundary, between which lies the no-trading region. We investigate how these two trading boundaries vary w
The classical mean-variance portfolio selection problem induces time-inconsistent (precommited) strategies (see Zhou and Li (2000)). To overcome this time-inconsistency, Basak and Chabakauri (2010) introduce the game theoretical approach and look for (sub-game perfect Nash) equilibrium strategies, w
This paper studies the regularity of the value function arising from a multidimensional continuous-time principal-agent model with separable, nonquadratic effort costs. The associated stochastic control problem has the output and the agent’s continuation utility as state variables, and its Hamilton-
