1 Optimal investments under dynamic performance critria Lecture IV 1
2 Utility-based measurement of performance 2
3 Deterministic environment Utility traits u(x, t) : x wealth and t time Monotonicity u x (x, t) > Risk aversion u xx (x, t) < Impatience u t (x, t) < Fisher (1913, 1918), Koopmans (1951), Koopmans-Diamond-Williamson (1964)... 3
4 Stochastic environment Important ingredients Time evolution concurrent with the one of the investment universe Consistency with up to date information Incorporation of available opportunities and constraints Meaningful optimal utility volume 4
5 Dynamic utility U(x, t) is an F t -adapted process As a function of x, U is increasing and concave For each self-financing strategy, represented by π, the associated (discounted) wealth X t satisfies E P (U(X π t,t) F s ) U(X π s,s) s t There exists a self-financing strategy, represented by π,forwhich the associated (discounted) wealth Xt π satisfies E P (U(Xt π,t) F s ) = U(Xs π,s) s t 5
6 Traditional framework A deterministic utility datum u T (x) is assigned at the end of a fixed investment horizon U(x, T )=u T (x) Backwards in time generation of optimal utility volume V (x, t) =sup π E P (u(x π T,T) F t; X π t = x) V (x, t) =sup π E P (V (X π s,s) F t ; X π t = x) (DPP) V (x, t) =E P (V (Xs π,s) F t ; Xt π = x) U(x, t) V (x, t) t<t The dynamic utility coincides with the traditional value function 6
7 A deterministic utility datum u (x) is assigned at the beginning of the trading horizon, t = U(x, ) = u (x) Forward in time generation of optimal utility volume U(X π s,s)=e P (U(X π t,t) F s ) s t Dynamic utility can be defined for all trading horizons Utility and allocations take a very intuitive form Difficulties due to the inverse in time nature of the problem Utility is not exogeneously given but is implied/calibrated w.r.t. investment opportunities 7
8 Motivational examples 8
9 An incomplete multiperiod binomial example Exponential utility datum Traded security: S t,t=, 1,... ξ t+1 = S t+1 S t,ξ t+1 = ξ d t+1,ξu t+1 with <ξ d t+1 < 1 <ξu t+1 Second traded asset is riskless yielding zero interest rate Stochastic factor: Y t,t=, 1,... η t+1 = Y t+1 Y t,η t+1 = η d t+1,ηu t+1 with η d t <η u t Probability space (Ω, (F t ), P) {S t,y t : t =, 1,...} : a two-dimensional stochastic process 9
10 State wealth process: X t, t = s +1,s+2,...,... α i : the number of shares of the traded security held in this portfolio over thetimeperiod[i 1,i] X t = X s + t i=s+1 α i S i Forward dynamic exponential utility U(X α s,s)=e P (U(X α t,t) F s ) U(x, ) = e γx, γ > 1
11 A forward dynamic utility U(x, t) = e γx if t = e γx+ t i=1 h i if t 1 Auxiliary quantities : local entropies h i with h i = q i log q i P (A i F i 1 ) +(1 q i)log 1 q i 1 P (A i F i 1 ) A i = {ξ i = ξ u i } and q i = Q (A i F i 1 ) for i =, 1,.. and Q being the minimal relative entropy measure 11
12 Important insights The forward utility process U(x, t) = e γx+ t i=1 h i is of the form U(x, t) =u(x, A t ) where u(x, t) is the deterministic utility function u(x, t) = e γx+1 2 t and A t corresponds to a time change depending on the market input A t =2 t h i i=1 12
13 Important insights (continued) The variational utility input u(x, t) = e γx+1 2 t solves the partial differential equation u t u xx = 1 2 u2 x u(x, ) = e γx The stochastic market input A t =2 t h i i=1 plays now the role of time. It depends exclusively on the market parameters. 13
14 A continuous-time example Investment opportunities Riskless bond : r = Risky security : ds t = σ t S t (λ t dt + dw t ) Utility datum at t =: u (x) Wealth process dx t = σ t π t (λ t dt + dw t ) X = x Market input : λ t, A t da t = λ 2 t dt A = 14
15 Building the martingale U(Xt π,t) Assume that we can construct U(x, t) via U(Xt π,t)=u(xt π,a t ) U(x, ) = u(x, ) = u (x) where u(x, t) is the variational utility input and A t the stochastic market input du(xt π,t)=u x(x t,a t )σ t π t dw t +(u t (Xt π,a t)λ 2 t + u x(xt π,a t)σ t π t λ t u xx(xt π,a t)σt 2π2 t )dt }{{} 15
16 Variational utility input condition u t u xx = 1 2 u2 x u(x, ) = u (x) The optimal allocations in stock, π t π t = σ 1 t π, t = X π t, and in bond, π, t, u x (X λ t π,a t ) t u xx (X π,a t ) = σ 1 t λ t R t t σt 1 λ t R t R t = r(x π t,a t ) ; r(x, t) = u x(x, t) u xx (x, t) The local risk tolerance r(x, t) and the subordinated risk tolerance process R t emerge as important quantities 18
