Decomposition of Optimal Portfolio Weight in a Jump-Diffusion Model and Its Applications
研究了多资产跳跃扩散模型中的投资组合选择问题,将最优权重分解为扩散经济和纯跳跃经济的组合,并分析了模糊厌恶下的性质。
This article solves the portfolio choice problem in a multi-asset jump-diffusion model. We decompose the optimal portfolio weight into components that correspond to a collection of fictitious economies, one of which is a standard diffusion economy, and the others of which are pure-jump economies. We derive a semi-closed-form solution for the optimal portfolio weight, and investigate its properties with or without ambiguity aversion. We find that an investor may not reduce her investment in risky assets when facing more frequent jumps, as suggested by a single-asset jump-diffusion model. Moreover, an investor who is extremely cautious about her estimates of higher moments of asset returns may still hold risky assets, contrary to the prediction of a pure-diffusion model with ambiguity aversion to the first moment.
