Abstract

This paper studies the optimal life-cycle investment and consumption strategy of an agent with truncated quadratic preferences and a finite satiation point of utility, either for consumption or terminal wealth. Employing the dynamic programming and martingale methods, we derive explicit expressions for optimal policies in an unconstrained case where consumption and wealth are allowed to be negative, as well as a constrained case imposing a subsistence level for consumption and requiring that the terminal wealth must be non-negative. We allow for a general satiation point instead of taking the satiation/bliss level as the maximum point of the quadratic function. We reveal that when satiation does not occur, the lowering satiation point stimulates current consumption, while the increasing satiation point makes the risky asset more attractive. Furthermore, we demonstrate that the satiation levels of wealth and consumption are not always reached simultaneously. Interestingly, sensitivity analysis yields that wealth plays an important role in deciding the effect of mortality risk on consumption policy from a microcosmic perspective.
具有截断二次效用和满足点的个人投资组合选择和消费
研究了具有截断二次偏好和有限效用饱和点的智能体在消费和终端财富方面的最优生命周期投资和消费策略。利用动态规划和鞅方法,导出了允许消费和财富为负的无约束情况下的最优策略的显式表达式,以及限制消费的生存水平并要求终端财富必须为非负的约束情况。我们允许一般的满足点,而不是将满足/极乐水平作为二次函数的最大值。我们发现,当不发生饱和时,降低饱和点会刺激当前消费,而增加饱和点会使风险资产更具吸引力。此外,我们证明了财富和消费的饱和水平并不总是同时达到的。有趣的是,敏感性分析表明,从微观角度来看,财富在决定死亡风险对消费政策的影响方面起着重要作用。
