This paper studies the impact of counter-party default risk of forward contracts on a firm's production and hedging … decisions. Using a model of a risk-averse competitive firm under price uncertainty, it derives several fundamental results. If … expected profits from forward contracts are zero, the hedge ratio is surprisingly not affected by default risk under general …

In this paper we analyse the mean-variance hedging approach in an incomplete market under the assumption of additional … measures shrinks. Therefore, we obtain a modified mean-variance hedging problem, which takes into account the observed … obtain an explicit description of the optimal hedging strategy and an admissible, constrained variance-optimal signed …
