12 II) A One-Facor Model Economy one producion opporuniy (n = 1) and one sae variable (k = 1) where (σdz ) (bdζ ) = φd dη(x, ) η(x, ) = µ(x, )d + σ(x, )dz dx = a(x, )d + b(x, )dζ he RI s opimizaion problem becomes { [ ]} T max E U(C s, s)ds Cs, s F subjec o he dynamic budge equaion dw = (W µ(x, ) C )d + W σ(x, )dz The Cox-Ingersoll-Ross Model - Mahias Thul, Ally Quan Zhang 12

13 III) Opimal Consumpion Sraegy in he One-Facor Model define he indirec uiliy funcion J(W, x, ) by J(W, x, ) := max Cs, s { E [ T ]} U(C s, s)ds F according o Bellman s Principle of Opimaliy, opimal sraegies are ime consisen J(W, x, ) = max Cs, s + max Cs, s { = max Cs, s { [ +d E U(C s, s)ds { [ ]} ]} T E U(C s, s)ds +d F +d F [ ]} +d E U(C s, s)ds + J(W +d, x +d, + d) F The Cox-Ingersoll-Ross Model - Mahias Thul, Ally Quan Zhang 13

14 assuming ha we can apply Iô s lemma, J(W +d, x +d, + d) can compued as J(W +d, x +d, + d) J(W, x, ) + J W dw + J x dx + J d J W 2 (dw ) J x 2 (dx ) J W x dw dx = J(W, x, ) + J W (W µ C )d + J W W σdz + J x ad + J x bdζ + J J b 2 d + 2 x 2 d J W x W φd 2 J W 2 W 2 σ2 d noe ha he Wiener processes z and ζ are maringales and hus heir changes have zero expeced value The Cox-Ingersoll-Ross Model - Mahias Thul, Ally Quan Zhang 14

15 plugging his resul back ino he definiion of he indirec uiliy funcion resuls he Hamilon-Jacobi-Bellman (HJB) equaion 0 = max C { U(C, ) + J (W µ C ) + J a + J W x } 2 J W 2 W 2 σ J b x 2 where J(W, x, ) and d were cancelled ou 2 J W x W φ using he Dynkin operaor L o simplify he noaion yields 0 = max C {U(C, ) + LJ(W, x, )} The Cox-Ingersoll-Ross Model - Mahias Thul, Ally Quan Zhang 15

16 he opimizaion problem can be solved in hree seps: 1) deermine he opimal consumpion level C (J) depending on he indirec uiliy funcion J 2) recover J by solving he PDE ha is obained by subsiuing he opimal consumpion C (J) ino he Bellman equaion 3) solve for he opimal consumpion level C by subsiuing he indirec uiliy funcion ino C (J) The Cox-Ingersoll-Ross Model - Mahias Thul, Ally Quan Zhang 16

18 excep for he rivial soluion C = 0, he opimal consumpion is chosen such ha marginal uiliy of consumpion equals o he marginal uiliy of fuure wealh U = J C W he FOC are no only necessary bu also sufficien due o he sric concaviy of he uiliy funcion U given he concree uiliy funcion, he opimal consumpion rae C (J) can be deermined [ C γ U(C, ) = e ρ 1 ] γ U C = e ρ ( C ) γ 1 C (J) = ( e ρ J W ) 1 γ 1 The Cox-Ingersoll-Ross Model - Mahias Thul, Ally Quan Zhang 18

19 Sep 2: Solve for J subsiuing back ino he HJB equaion and grouping similar erms yields a non linear PDE for J ha can in general no be solved explicily for isolasic uiliy funcions, he indirec uiliy funcion akes he form J(W, x, ) = f(x, )U(W, ) + g(x, ) logarihmic uiliy is a limiing case of he isoelasic uiliy when γ 0 or equivalenly RRA 1 [ C γ lim γ 0 e ρ 1 ] = e ρ ln(c ) γ in his special case, f(x, ) is independen of wealh W a funcion of ime only f(x, ) = f() = 1 e ρ(t ) ρ The Cox-Ingersoll-Ross Model - Mahias Thul, Ally Quan Zhang 19

20 Sep 3: Solve for C differeniaing J(W, x, ) w.r.. W yields [f()u(w, ) + g(x, )] = f() U = 1 e ρ(t ) W W ρw using he FOC allows o solve for C U C = J C W = W ρ 1 e ρ(t ) under logarihmic uiliy C depends on he curren wealh W, he ime preference facor ρ and he planning horizon (T ) only he opimal consumpion C is independen of he funcion g(x, ) and hus of he producion opporuniies in he economy The Cox-Ingersoll-Ross Model - Mahias Thul, Ally Quan Zhang 20

21 IV) Equilibrium Risk-free Rae in he One-Facor Model since he risk-free insrumen is in zero ne supply, i is no being held by he represenaive invesor deermine he risk-free rae endogenously such ha he invesor is no beer off by rading in he money marke, i.e. he is indifferen beween an invesmen in he producion opporuniy and he risk-free insrumen denoe by ω η 0 he proporion of wealh ha is invesed in he producion opporuniy, hen (1 ω η )W is he amoun invesed in he risk-free insrumen he dynamic budge equaion is dw = (ω η W µ(x, ) + (1 ω η )W r C )d + ω η W σ(x, )dz = (ω η W (µ(x, ) r ) + W r C )d + ω η W σ(x, )dz The Cox-Ingersoll-Ross Model - Mahias Thul, Ally Quan Zhang 21

22 he new opimizaion problem is 0 = max C,ωη {Ψ(C, ω η )} s.. C 0, ω η 0 wih Ψ(C, ω η ) = U(C, ) + J (ω η W (µ r ) + W r C ) + J a + J W x J W 2 ω 2 η W 2 σ J b x 2 he FOC for C do no change and he FOC for ω η are Ψ = J W (µ r ) + 2 J ω η W W 2 Ψ ω η = J ω η W (µ r ) + 2 J ω η W W 2 again, he FOC are boh necessary and sufficien ω η W 2 σ2 + 2 J W x ω η W φ ω 2 η W 2 σ2 + 2 J W x W φ 0 2 J W x ω η W φ = 0 The Cox-Ingersoll-Ross Model - Mahias Thul, Ally Quan Zhang 22

23 we wan o find he opimum condiional on he invesor only consuming or invesing in he producion opporuniy bu wihou holding he risk-free asse solving he second FOC for r and seing ω η = 1 yields r = µ + 2 J/ W 2 W σ J/ W x φ J/ W J/ W he equilibrium ineres rae r depends on (i) he insananeous mean reurn µ(x, ) of he opimally invesed wealh (ii) a erm reflecing he uncerainy abou he reurns of he producion opporuniy (iii) a erm reflecing he uncerainy abou he sae of he echnology The Cox-Ingersoll-Ross Model - Mahias Thul, Ally Quan Zhang 23

24 noe ha by definiion and hus 2 J/ W 2 J/ W W = γ 1 r = µ + (γ 1)σ J/ W x φ J/ W for he special case of logarihmic uiliy (γ = 0), he indirec uiliy funcion becomes J(W, x, ) = f() ln(w ) + g(x, ) 2 J W x = 0 and we ge r = µ(x, ) σ 2 (x, ) under logarihmic uiliy, he ineres rae only depends on he sochasic dynamics of he producion opporuniy r is independen of he fuure producion risk arising from he sae variable x (i.e. a(x, ) and b(x, )) The Cox-Ingersoll-Ross Model - Mahias Thul, Ally Quan Zhang 24

25 V) Equilibrium Dynamics of he Risk-free Rae - Model Assumpions 1) facor dynamics : he drif and diffusion coefficiens or he sae variable are a(x, ) = a 0 + a 1 x and b(x, ) = b 0 x, i.e. dx = (a 0 + a 1 x )d + b 0 x dζ where a 0, a 1 and b 0 are consans, a 0 0 and (dz ) (dζ ) = ρd for a 0 > 0 and a 1 < 0, x is a non-negaive mean-revering random variable noe ha (dx ) 2 = b 2 0 x d The Cox-Ingersoll-Ross Model - Mahias Thul, Ally Quan Zhang 25

26 2) producion dynamics : he means and variances of he raes of reurn of he producion process are proporional o x, i.e. µ(x, ) = ˆµx and σ(x, ) = ˆσ x dη η = ˆµx d + ˆσ x dz given a fixed x = x his yield a geomeric Brownian moion for η and hus normally disribued reurns ln ( ηt η 0 ) N ([ˆµ 12 ˆσ2 ] xt, ˆσ 2 xt ) echnological progress increases boh, he mean-reurn and he variance of he producion process The Cox-Ingersoll-Ross Model - Mahias Thul, Ally Quan Zhang 26

27 Ineres Rae Dynamics using he assumpion abou he facor and producion dynamics allows he equilibrium ineres rae r becomes r = µ(x, ) σ 2 (x, ) = ˆµx ˆσ 2 x applying Iô s lemma yields he diffusion process of he risk-free rae dr = = ( ˆµ ˆσ 2) dx (a 0 (ˆµ ˆσ 2) ) + a 1 r d + b 0 ˆµ ˆσ 2 r dζ = κ ( r r ) d + σ r dζ where κ = a 1, r = ( a 0 (ˆµ ˆσ 2 )) a 1 1 and σ = b 0 ˆµ ˆσ 2 The Cox-Ingersoll-Ross Model - Mahias Thul, Ally Quan Zhang 27

28 Sochasic Properies of r (i) r follows a square roo diffusion ha is almos surely non-negaive (ii) he ineres rae is elasically pulled owards a long erm value r > 0 (iii) κ > 0 deermines he speed of mean-reversion (iv) Feller condiion : if 2κ r σ 2 and r > 0, hen he process does no reach zero almos surely (v) r follows a non-cenral chi-square disribuion (vi) r for s, he condiional mean and variance are E [r F s ] = r s e κ( s) + r (1 e κ( s)) Var [r F s ] = σ2 κ r s (e κ( s) e 2κ( s)) + r σ2 2κ (1 e κ( s)) 2 his direcly follows from he disribuional properies or can be derived using Iô s lemma (see appendix A) The Cox-Ingersoll-Ross Model - Mahias Thul, Ally Quan Zhang 28

29 Empirical Properies of Ineres Raes ha are refleced by r (i) r shows mean-reversion (ii) ineres raes can no become negaive r is a suiable model for he nominal ineres rae (iii) even if he Feller condiion is no fulfilled and r = 0, hen his value is no absorbing (iv) he absolue variance of he ineres rae increases when r increases The Cox-Ingersoll-Ross Model - Mahias Thul, Ally Quan Zhang 29

31 VI) Equilibrium Pricing of Coningen Claims jus like he risk-free rae, all coningen claims are in zero ne supply and hus no held by he represenaive invesor in equilibrium denoe by P (W, x, ) he price of a coningen claim by Iô s lemma, is differenial akes he form dp = P d + P W dw + P 2 P x 2 (dx ) 2 + x dx P W x dw dx 2 P W 2 (dw ) 2 collecing all drif erms, we se α(w, x, ) o be he insananeous reurn of he derivaive securiy o obain dp = α(w, x, )P d + P W W σdz + P x bdζ The Cox-Ingersoll-Ross Model - Mahias Thul, Ally Quan Zhang 31

32 accordingly, we choose β η (W, x, )P = P W W σ, β x (W, x, )P = P x b o ge he following expression for he insananeous yield of he coningen claim dp P = α(w, x, )d + β η (W, x, )dz + β x (W, x, )dζ le ω η be he proporion of wealh ha is invesed in he producion opporuniy and ω P be he proporion invesed in he derivaive insrumen (1 ω η ω P ) W is he amoun invesed in he risk-free insrumen he dynamic budge equaion is dw = (ω η W (µ r ) + ω P W (α r ) + W r C ) d +W (ω η σ + ω P β η ) dz + W ω P β x dζ The Cox-Ingersoll-Ross Model - Mahias Thul, Ally Quan Zhang 32

33 he new opimizaion problem is 0 = max C,ωη,ω P {Ψ(C, ω η, ω P )} s.. C 0, ω η 0 wih Ψ(C, ω η, ω P ) = U(C, ) + J (ω η W (µ r ) + ω P W (α r ) + W r C ) + J a + J W x ] J W 2 W J b x 2 [ (ω η σ + ω P β η ) 2 + (ω P β x ) (ω η σ + ω P β η ) ω P β x ρ 2 J W x W [(ω η σ + ω P β η ) ρ + ω P β x ] b The Cox-Ingersoll-Ross Model - Mahias Thul, Ally Quan Zhang 33

34 he new FOC for ω P is Ψ = J W (α r ) ω P W + 2 J W 2 W 2 ( ) [ω P β 2 η + β2 x + 2β ηβ x ρ + 2 J W x W [β η ρ + β x ] b = 0 ] + ω η σβ η + ω η σβ x ρ since here is zero ne supply for he coningen claim, we se ω η = 1, ω P = 0 and solve for he equilibrium excess reurn α r o ge α r = [ ] 2 J/ W 2 W σ 2 J/ W x bρ J/ W J/ W [ ] + 2 J/ W 2 W σρ 2 J/ W x b J/ W J/ W β η β x The Cox-Ingersoll-Ross Model - Mahias Thul, Ally Quan Zhang 34

35 Marke Prices of Facor Risks he equaion for he equilibrium excess reurn α r allows us o define he marke prices of facor risks as θ η = 2 J/ W 2 W σ 2 J/ W x bρ J/ W J/ W θ x = 2 J/ W 2 W σρ 2 J/ W x b J/ W J/ W once again, noe ha under iso-elasic uiliy 2 J/ W 2 W = 1 γ, J/ W 2 J/ W x J/ W = 0 α r is he excess reurn ha makes he represenaive invesor indifferen beween buying and selling he coningen claim The Cox-Ingersoll-Ross Model - Mahias Thul, Ally Quan Zhang 35

36 θ η and θ x relae he excess reurn o he amoun of risk aken in β η and β x jus like he equilibrium risk-free rae, he marke prices of facors risks are independen of he aggregae wealh in he economy equilibrium prices of derivaives whose payoffs are independen of wealh are hus independen of W hemselves as shown earlier, for he special case of logarihmic uiliy (γ = 0), he RRA is consan a one and he marke prices of risk simplify o θ η = σ(x, ), θ x = σ(x, )ρ he marke prices of risk do no only depend on he invesor s uiliy funcion bu also on he dynamics of he producion opporuniy and he sae variable as well as heir correlaion The Cox-Ingersoll-Ross Model - Mahias Thul, Ally Quan Zhang 36

37 Fundamenal Valuaion Equaion by Iô s lemma, he differenial of a coningen claim P (x, ) wih wealh-independen payoff akes he form dp = P = P d + dx P x 2 x 2 (dx ) 2 ( P + P a(x, ) P b 2 (x, ) x 2 x 2 ) d + P x b(x, )dζ using he previous, he insananeous drif α(x, ) and he insananeous diffusion β x (x, ) are α(x, ) = 1 ( P P + P a(x, ) + 1 x 2 β x (x, ) = 1 P ( P x b(x, ) ) ) 2 P b 2 (x, ) x 2 The Cox-Ingersoll-Ross Model - Mahias Thul, Ally Quan Zhang 37

38 he coningen claim s dynamics can hen be expressed as dp = α(x, )P d + β x (x, )P dζ plugging hese expressions for α(x, ) and β(x, ) ino he equaion for he equilibrium excess reurn yields he fundamenal valuaion equaion α(x, ) r = θ x β x (x, ) 1 ( P P + P a(x, ) + 1 ) 2 P b 2 (x, ) x 2 x 2 r = σ(x, ) P ( ) P b(x, ) x P + P [a(x, ) σ(x, )b(x, )ρ] P b 2 (x, ) = rp x 2 x 2 The Cox-Ingersoll-Ross Model - Mahias Thul, Ally Quan Zhang 38

39 Valuaion of Zero-Bonds le P (x,, T ) be he ime price of a defaul-free zero bond ha pays one uni of he consumpion good in T noe ha he payoff of he zero bond is independen of wealh is equilibrium dynamics can be described by he fundamenal valuaion equaion when uiliy is logarihmic P + P [a(x, ) σ(x, )b(x, )ρ] P b 2 (x x 2 x 2, ) = r P we replace he general drif and diffusion erms by he concree choice ha has been made o derive he CIR process (a(x, ) = a 0 + a 1 x, b(x, ) = b 0 x σ(x, ) = ˆσ x ) o ge P + P (a 0 + a 1 x ˆσb 0 ρx ) P b 2 x 2 x 2 0 x = r P and The Cox-Ingersoll-Ross Model - Mahias Thul, Ally Quan Zhang 39

40 since he equilibrium ineres rae is r = (ˆµ ˆσ 2) x, we can apply a change of variable from P (x,, T ) o P (r,, T ) where P = P ( ˆµ ˆσ 2), x r 2 P x 2 = 2 P r 2 (ˆµ ˆσ 2) 2 and obain P + P r ( a 0 ( ˆµ ˆσ 2) + a 1 r ˆσb 0 ρr ) P x 2 b 2 0 ( ˆµ ˆσ 2) r = r P finally, using he noaion of he ineres rae dynamics and seing ψ = ˆσb 0 ρ yields P + P (κ ( r r ) ψr ) P r 2 x 2 σr = r P ψr is he covariance of ineres rae changes wih he proporional change in opimally invesed wealh (he ineres rae s bea ) The Cox-Ingersoll-Ross Model - Mahias Thul, Ally Quan Zhang 40

41 he boundary condiion for he zero bond is P (r, T, T ) = 1 he CIR process falls ino he general class of affine erm srucure models where he drif and he squared diffusion erm are affine funcions of r here exiss a closed form soluion for zero bond prices under affine erm srucure models and for he case of he CIR model i is P (r,, T ) = A(τ)e B(τ)r, τ = T where A(τ) = B(τ) = θ = [ 2θe (θ+κ+ψ)τ 2 (θ + κ + ψ) (e θτ 1) + 2θ 2 ( e θτ 1 ) (θ + κ + ψ) (e θτ 1) + 2θ (κ + ψ) σ 2 ] 2κ r/ σ 2 The Cox-Ingersoll-Ross Model - Mahias Thul, Ally Quan Zhang 41
