Additional logarithmic utility of an insider

Abstract: In this paper, we consider a security market in which two investors on different information levels maximize their expected logarithmic utility from terminal wealth. While the ordinary investor's portfolio decisions are based on a public information flow, the insider possesses from the beginning extra information about the outcome of some random variable G, e.g., the future price of a stock. We solve the two optimization problems explicitly and rewrite the insider's additional expected logarithmic utility in t… Show more

“…We refer here to Karatzas and Pikovsky (1996), Amendinger et al (1998), Grorud and Pontier (1998) and Imkeller et al (2001). All these works consider the differential of utility between the two agents (as previously described) and one important conclusion is that the differential is the relative entropy of the additional r.v.…”

“…We quote also a result by Jacod (1985) who states that, under the above assumptions, S is also a semimartingale with respect to the enlarged filtration G and provides its canonical decomposition. Finally, we recall the representation of p G and its inverse as a stochastic exponential (Amendinger et al (1998)). …”

“…To answer this question, recent works have proposed some models based on the theory of initial enlargement of filtrations, developed in [19], [20], [21]; the utility maximization problem has been solved in [1], [2] for continuous processes (see also [12], [16], [17]) and the same approach has been taken in [11] in the context of processes with jumps. One drawback of the enlargement approach is that it leads to arbitrage possibilities, whereas the initial market is arbitrage-free.…”
