Capital requirement for achieving acceptability

نویسنده

چکیده

Consider an agent who enters a financial market on day t = 0 with an initial capital amount x. He invests this amount on stocks and the money market, and by day t = τ , has generated a wealth W . He is given a convex class of probability measures or scenarios and a real-valued floor corresponding to each scenario. The agent faces the constraints that the expectation of W under each scenario must not be less than the corresponding floor. We call x acceptable if one can start with x and successfully generate W satisfying these constraints. The set of acceptable x is a half-line in R, unbounded from above. We show that under some regularity conditions on the set of scenarios and the floor function, the infimum of this set is given by the supremum of the floors over all scenarios under which S is a martingale.

Computing Strategies for Achieving Acceptability

We consider a trader who wants to direct his portfolio towards a set of acceptable wealths given by a convex risk measure. We propose a black-box algorithm, whose inputs are the joint law of stock prices and the convex risk measure, and whose outputs are the numerical values of initial capital requirement and the functional form of a trading strategy to achieve acceptability. We also prove opti...

We consider a trader who wants to direct his or her portfolio towards a set of acceptable wealths given by a convex risk measure. We propose a Monte Carlo algorithm, whose inputs are the joint law of stock prices and the convex risk measure, and whose outputs are the numerical values of initial capital requirement and the functional form of a trading strategy for achieving acceptability. We als...

on capital requirements and optimal strategies to achieve acceptability

This thesis is concerned with an agent in a financial market who wishes to trade between day t = 0 and day t = τ . The agent starts with a specific objective in mind, which defines a class of acceptable (random) financial positions at the end of day τ . He wants to determine an initial amount and a self-financing trading strategy which will turn the discounted terminal value of his portfolio ac...

Capital requirements, the option surface, market, credit and liquidity risk

The Sato process model for option prices is expanded to accomodate credit considerations by incorporating a single jump to default occuring at an independent random time with a Weibull distribution. Explicit formulas, in this context, for the bid and ask prices of two price economies that price residual risks to levels of risk acceptability are then derived. Liquidity considerations are thereby...
