2 388 Hai-xiang Yao / Procedia Engineering 3 () pension funds and insurance companies In recent years, using the M V criteria, [5] studied a multiperiod ALM problem [6] and [7] extended the wor of [5] to the cases of uncertain exit time and stochastic maret environment, respectively On the other hand, [8]-[9] investigated ALM problems under M V criterion in continuous-time setting o the best of our nowledge, Most the existing literatures about multiperiod M V model with liability apply the embedding techniques introduced in [] to solve the model hough embedding techniques overcome the difficulty of non-separability in variance, but it s quite complicated in procedure settings and calculation What is more, except for wealth, ALM problems need to consider another relevant state variable, liability, the inclusion of further state variable drastically enhances the computational complexity in obtaining closed form solutions (refer to [5]-[7]) For these reasons, this paper tries to introduce a new simple method, that named as Lagrange duality method, for solving multiperiod mean variance ALM problems Compared with the embedding techniques, Lagrange duality methods are simpler in procedure settings with less computational complexity As an application and a demonstration of Lagrange duality method, his paper adopt it to solve the multiperiod mean variance ALM problems of [5] he paper is structured as follows Section two sets up the mean-variance ALM problem as a multiperiod Optimal Control Problem (OCP) with equality constraint In section three, the original problem is turned into a separable multi-period unconstraint OCP by using Lagrange multiplier technique and the analytical solution is obtained by dynamic programming approach Finally, the efficient investment strategy and the efficient M-V frontier are obtained in section four Establishment of mean variance ALM model Suppose that there are n + securities with return vector e (,,,, n = e e e e ) at time period, =,,, Here A represents the transpose of matrix A An investor, equipped with initial wealth x and initial liability l, enters the maret at time, and maes investments within period He (she) not only need to consider the investment strategy, but also consider the liability management Following [5], the liability are uncontrollable, and its dynamic process is l = + ql, () q is a exogenous random variable, it can be understood as the random growth rate of liability Let i x and l denote the value of wealth and liability he holds at period, respectively u, i =,,, n, is the amount invested in the i th security at period, then the amount invested in the th security is n i x u herefore, the wealth dynamics can be written as (see [5]) x+ = xe + Pu, () P (,,, n = e e e e e e ) his paper has the assumptions as [5] is the overall information sets till time hen the investment strategy u is admissible if u is adapted to he collection of all admissible investment strategy is defined as Θ he multiperiod mean-variance ALM problems is to find out the optimal admissible strategy to minimize the ris of the final surplus, defined as S = x l, under the condition that expectation is given as d, here the ris is measured by variance, ie VarS [ ] = ES [ ] E[ S] = ES [ ] d herefore, the multiperiod ALM model under the M-V framewor can be now formulated as OCP: min Var[ S ] = E[ S ] d, s t E[ S ] = d,() () (3) u Θ
3 Hai-xiang Yao / Procedia Engineering 3 () he solution of this OCP is called efficient investment strategy he collection of all these points ( d, Var[ S ]) in coordinate plane M-V corresponded to efficient strategies is called as efficient frontier 3 ransformation and solution to the problem It is well nown that the equality constraint ES [ ] = d in OCP (3) can be dealt with by introducing a Lagrange multiplier We can turn to solve the following unconstrained OCP parameterized by min E[ S] d ( E[ S] d), st () () u Θ + (4) Since ES [ ] d + ( ES [ ] d) = E[( x l) + ( x l)] d d herefore, OCP (4) is equivalent to min E[ x + l x l + x l d d], st () () (5) u Θ In the following, we solve OCP (5) by using dynamic programming approach Let f( x, l ) denote the optimal value function associated with OC (5) starting from time with state: wealth x and liability l hen, according to the dynamic programming principle, the basic equations of OC (5) are as follows: f( x, l) = min E f+ ( xe + Pu, ql ), u Θ (6) f( x, l) = x + l xl + x l d d As a result, H ( x, l, λ ): = f( x, l) is the optimal value of OCP (5) For simplicity, let x = x, l = l We guess and subsequently verify that the expression of f ( x ) has the form as follows f(,) x l = wx + λxl + γl + hx + gl + α, (7) w >, λ, γ, h, g, α are series to be determined Substituting (7) into the first equation of basic equation (6) gives wx + λxl + γl + hx + gl + α = min E f+ ( xe + P u, ql) u = min E w+ ( xe + P u) + λ+ ( xe + P u) ql + γ+ ql + h+ ( xe + P u) + g+ ql + α+ } u = w+ E[( e) ] x + λ+ E[ eq] xl + γ+ E[ q] l + h+ E[ e] x+ g+ Eq [ ] l+ α+ + min w u EPP [ + ] u + ( w EeP [ + ] x+ λ EqP [ + ] l+ h+ EP [ ]) u u he first order condition (since w >, then is also sufficient condition ) gives λ h + + u = E [ PP ] Ee [ P] x+ Eq [ P] l+ E[ P], w+ w+ substituted bac into the above formula, it follows that (8)
