Abstract: A discrete time probabilistic model, for optimal equity allocation and portfolio selection, is formulated so as to apply to (at least) reinsurance. In the context of a company with several portfolios (or subsidiaries), representing both liabilities and assets, it is proved that the model has solutions respecting constraints on ROE's, ruin probabilities and market shares currently in practical use. Solutions define global and optimal risk management strategies of the company. Mathematical existence results and tools, such as the inversion of the linear part of the Euler-Lagrange equations, developed in a preceding paper in the context of a simplified model are essential for the mathematical and numerical construction of solutions of the model.
