Title: On an optimal control problem with a concave bound
Ìý
Abstract: We study a version of De Finetti’s optimal dividend problem driven by a diffusion, where the control strategies are assumed to be absolutely continuous strategies which are bounded above by an increasing, concave function.
We provide sufficient conditions to show that an optimal strategy exists and lies within the set of generalized refraction strategies. In addition, we are able to characterize the optimal refraction threshold in our setting.
This is ongoing joint work with Hélène Guérin, Jean-François Renaud and Alexandre Roch.
