Using the Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman equation, we derive both a Keynes-Ramsey rule and a closed form solution for an optimal consumption-investment problem with labor income. The utility function is unbounded and uncertainty stems from a Poisson process. Our results can be derived because of the...

This interdisciplinary paper explains how mathematical techniques of stochastic optimal control can be applied to the recent subprime mortgage crisis. Why did the financial markets fail to anticipate the recent debt crisis, despite the large literature in mathematical finance concerning optimal...

We develop a financial-economic model for carbon pricing with an explicit representation of decision making under risk … specifications. We show that risk associated with high damages in the long term leads to stringent mitigation of carbon dioxide … emissions in the near term. Our results provide insight into how a systematic incorporation of climate-related risk influences …
