A class of continuous-time portfolio selection with liability under jump-diffusion processes
A continuous-time mean-variance portfolio selection model is formulated with multiple risky assets and one liability under discontinuous prices which follow jump-diffusion processes in an incomplete market. The correlations between the risky assets and the liability are considered. The corresponding Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman equation of the problem is presented. The optimal dynamic strategy and the efficient frontier in closed forms are derived explicitly by using stochastic linear-quadratic control technique. Finally, the effects on efficient frontier under the value-at-risk constraint are illustrated.
