Short term climate events such as the sea surface temperature anomaly known as El Niño are financial risk sources leading to incomplete markets. To make such risk tradable, we use a market model in which a climate index provides an extra investment option. Given one possible market price of...

We consider the stochastic sequence {Yi}t E N defined recursively by the linear relation Yt+l = AtYt + Bt in a random environment. The environment is described by the stochastic process {(At, Bt ) }t E N and is under the simultaneous control of several agents playing a discounted stochastic...

In this paper we consider the stochastic sequence {Pt}E N defined recursively by the linear relation Pt+1 = At Pt + Bt in a random environment which is described by the non-stationary process V = {(At, Bt) t E N.. We formulate sufficient conditions on v which ensure that the finite-dimensional...

We provide results on the existence and uniqueness of equilibrium in dynamically incomplete financial markets in discrete time. Our framework allows for heterogeneous agents, unspanned random endowments and convex trading constraints. In the special case where all agents have preferences of the...

In this article the problem of curve following in an illiquid market is addressed. Using techniques of singular stochastic control, we extend the results of [NW11] to a twosided limit order market with temporary market impact and resilience, where the bid ask spread is now also controlled. We...

In this paper we deal with the utility maximization problem with a general utility function. We derive a new approach in which we reduce the utility maximization problem with general utility to the study of a fully-coupled Forward-Backward Stochastic Differential Equation (FBSDE).
