OPTIMAL PORTFOLIO FOR THE INFORMED INVESTOR IN MISPRICED LEVY MARKET WITH STOCHASTIC VOLATILITY AND POWER UTILITY
- Date Issued:
- 2022
- Abstract/Description:
- We consider a portfolio optimization problem in stochastic volatility jump-diffusion model. The model is a mispriced Lévy market that contains informed and uninformed investors. Contrarily to the uninformed investor, the informed investor knows that a mispricing exists in the market. The stock price follows a jump-diffusion process, the mispricing and volatility are modelled by Ornstein-Uhlenbeck (O-U) process and Cox-Ingersoll-Ross (CIR) process, respectively. We only present results for the informed investor whose goal is to maximize utility from terminal wealth over a finite investment horizon under the power utility function. We employ methods of stochastic calculus namely Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman equation, instantaneous centralized moments of returns and three-level Crank-Nicolson method. We solve numerically the partial differential equation associated with the optimal portfolio. Under the power utility function, analogous results to those obtain in the jump-diffusion model under logarithmic utility function and deterministic volatility are obtained.
