The paper clarifies long-horizon investment and DCA, showing no risk reduction but different exposure profiles.
In the continuous time mean-variance model, we want to minimize the variance (risk) of the investment portfolio with a given mean at terminal time. However, the investor can stop the investment plan at any time before the terminal time. To solve this kind of problem, we consider to minimize the variances of the investm…
The paper considers an investment timing problem appearing in real options theory. Present values from an investment project are modeled by general diffusion process. We prove necessary and sufficient conditions under which an optimal investment time is induced by threshold strategy. We study also the conditions of opt…
Intangible investment becomes a strong predictor of stock returns over time.
Paper applies theorem to find optimal investment boundary in stochastic capacity expansion.
The paper analyzes Indian stock sectors using multifractal analysis for long and short-term investment.
Optimizes investment strategies for retirees with longevity risk.
Enhances robo-advisors with client investment preference inference.
The Kelly rule fails to maximize growth in a time-changed return setting.
Paper uses time series transformers to predict investment success.
In this paper we study the asymptotic decay of finite time ruin probabilities for an insurance company that faces heavy-tailed claims, uses predictable investment strategies and makes investments in risky assets whose prices evolve according to quite general semimartingales. We show that the ruin problem corresponds to…
Even in the face of deteriorating and highly volatile demand, firms often invest in, rather than discard, aging technologies. In order to study this phenomenon, we model the firm's profit stream as a Brownian motion with negative drift. At each point in time, the firm can continue operations, or it can stop and exit th…
This paper revisits optimal investment strategies for defined contribution pension schemes using forward preferences.
We find the optimal investment strategy to minimize the expected time that an individual's wealth stays below zero, the so-called {\it occupation time}. The individual consumes at a constant rate and invests in a Black-Scholes financial market consisting of one riskless and one risky asset, with the risky asset's price…
We investigate the growth optimal strategy over a finite time horizon for a stock and bond portfolio in an analytically solvable multiplicative Markovian market model. We show that the optimal strategy consists in holding the amount of capital invested in stocks within an interval around an ideal optimal investment. Th…
In this paper, we study a time-inconsistent consumption-investment problem with random endowments in a possibly incomplete market under general discount functions. We provide a necessary condition and a verification theorem for an open-loop equilibrium consumption-investment pair in terms of a coupled forward-backward …
Investment decisions shift earlier as patience decreases, with implications for pasting conditions.
We study optimal investment problems under the framework of cumulative prospect theory (CPT). A CPT investor makes investment decisions in a single-period financial market with transaction costs. The objective is to seek the optimal investment strategy that maximizes the prospect value of the investor's final wealth. W…
Study optimal consumption and investment strategies with constraints in a market with random coefficients.
Paper introduces dynamic strategies for multi-period investment models.
Maximizes probability of completing investment schedules with optimal portfolio weights.
Optimal healthcare investment timing in a dynamic model with mortality risk.
Optimal investment and risk control strategies for insurers are derived using a time-consistent approach.
Upper bound on withdrawal success for geometric Levy alpha-stable wealth process.
Investor optimizes investment timing with future knowledge, overcoming transaction costs.
We introduce a new approach to incorporate uncertainty into the decision to invest in a commodity reserve. The investment is an irreversible one-off capital expenditure, after which the investor receives a stream of cashflow from extracting the commodity and selling it on the spot market. The investor is exposed to pri…
Paper studies optimal investing for retirees with risk constraints.
Investment decisions can benefit from incorporating an accumulated knowledge of the past to drive future decision making. We introduce Continual Learning Augmentation (CLA) which is based on an explicit memory structure and a feed forward neural network (FFNN) base model and used to drive long term financial investment…
Any research on strategies for reaching business excellence aims at revealing the appropriate course of actions any executive should consider. Thus, discussions take place on how effective a performance measurement system can be estimated, or/and validated. Can one find an adequate measure (i) on the performance result…
Investment managers face harder choices in green stocks due to reduced performance variability.
We review a resent {\em time-dependent} performance measure for economical time series -- the (optimal) investment horizon approach. For stock indices, the approach shows a pronounced gain-loss asymmetry that is {\em not} observed for the individual stocks that comprise the index. This difference may hint towards an sy…
New model considers wealth and time affecting risk aversion in portfolio selection.
Investment diversification affects financial stability, depending on network connectivity.
Given a new candidate asset represented as a time series of returns, how should a quantitative investment manager be thinking about assessing its usefulness? This is a key qualitative question inherent to the investment process which we aim to make precise. We argue that the usefulness of an asset can only be determine…
Study optimal investment under uncertain conditions.
We consider an agent who invests in a stock and a money market account with the goal of maximizing the utility of his investment at the final time T in the presence of a proportional transaction cost. The utility function considered is power utility. We provide a heuristic and a rigorous derivation of the asymptotic ex…
In a collectivised pension fund, investors agree that any money remaining in the fund when they die can be shared among the survivors. We compute analytically the optimal investment-consumption strategy for a fund of identical investors with homogeneous Epstein--Zin preferences, investing in the Black--Scholes mark…
This paper solves optimal consumption-investment choices with wealth-driven risk aversion using neural networks.
Strategic valuation of efficient and well-timed network investments under uncertain electricity market environment has become increasingly challenging, because there generally exist multiple interacting options in these investments, and failing to systematically consider these options can lead to decisions that underva…
Investment herding can reduce household consumption, a phenomenon called crowding-out effect.
We provide easily verifiable conditions for the well-posedness of the optimal investment problem for a behavioral investor in an incomplete discrete-time multiperiod financial market model, for the first time in the literature. Under two different sets of assumptions we also establish the existence of optimal strategie…
The paper addresses optimal control in modern tontines with bequest preferences, showing a linear investment strategy.
AI enhances quantitative investment for better returns and risk control.
In a collectivised pension fund, investors agree that any money remaining in the fund when they die can be shared among the survivors. We give a numerical algorithm to compute the optimal investment-consumption strategy for an infinite collective of identical investors with exponential Kihlstrom--Mirman preferences, in…
When we implement a portfolio selection methodology under a mean-risk formulation, it is essential to correctly model investors' risk aversion which may be time-dependent, or even state-dependent during the investment procedure. In this paper, we propose a behavior risk aversion model, which is a piecewise linear funct…
Kelly investing improved with options to reduce estimation risk.
Integrates ESG factors into Bachelier's model for asset pricing.
This paper considers the problem of consumption and investment in a financial market within a continuous time stochastic economy. The investor exhibits a change in the discount rate. The investment opportunities are a stock and a riskless account. The market coefficients and discount factor switch according to a finite…
