In this paper, we consider a portfolio optimization problem in a defaultable market. The representative investor dynamically allocates his or her wealth among the following securities: a perpetual defaultable bond, a money market account and a default-free risky asset. The optimal investment and...

This paper introduces dynamic models for the spot foreign exchange rate with capturing both the rare events and the time-inhomogeneity in the fluctuating currency market. For the rare events, we use a compound Poisson process with log-normal jump amplitude to describe the jumps. As for the...

For the jump risk, we use a compound Poisson...
