TLDR
In this paper, the authors considered the continuous-time consumption-portfolio problem for an individual whose income is generated by capital gains on investments in assets with prices assumed to satisfy the geometric Brownian motion hypothesis, which implies that asset prices are stationary and lognormally distributed.

Risk Management with Benchmarking

TL;DR: In a dynamic setting, it is demonstrated how a risk-averse portfolio manager optimally under- or overperforms a target benchmark under different economic conditions, depending on his attitude towards risk and choice of the benchmark.

Uncertain Lifetimes, Retirement and Economic Welfare

Fwu-Ranq Chang
- 01 May 1991 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, it is shown that the decision to retire earlier or later depends on the old-age saving behavior, and that the effect of intertemporal substitutions, arising from the imperfection of the annuity market, could produce a tilt to the reservation wage profile, which makes early retirement possible.

Optimal investment and consumption in a Black¿Scholes market with Lévy-driven stochastic coefficients.

TL;DR: In this paper, an optimal investment and consumption problem for an investor who trades in a Black-Scholes financial market with stochastic coefficients driven by a non-Gaussian Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process is investigated.

Age dependent investing: Optimal funding and investment strategies in defined contribution pension plans when members are rational life cycle financial planners

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the optimal investment strategy for a defined contribution pension plan under the assumption that the member is a rational life cycle financial planner and has an Epstein-Zin utility function, which allows a separation between risk aversion and the elasticity of intertemporal substitution.

Lifetime Portfolio Selection under Uncertainty: The Continuous-Time Case

TL;DR: In this paper, the combined problem of optimal portfolio selection and consumption rules for an individual in a continuous-time model was examined, where his income is generated by returns on assets and these returns or instantaneous "growth rates" are stochastic.

Lifetime Portfolio Selection By Dynamic Stochastic Programming

TL;DR: In this paper, the optimal consumption-investment problem for an investor whose utility for consumption over time is a discounted sum of single-period utilities, with the latter being constant over time and exhibiting constant relative risk aversion (power-law functions or logarithmic functions), is discussed.
