Open publisher page 19 citations

Abstract

This paper investigates optimal investment-consumption strategies that maximize the expected utility of consumption and/or terminal wealth under jump-diffusion models using a martingale method. We characterize the optimal trading strategy and the optimal martingale measure in terms of a system of equations and obtain explicit solutions for the power and logarithmic utility case.
