Portfolio optimization under fast mean-reverting and rough fractional stochastic environment

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: Fractional stochastic volatility models have been widely used to capture the non-Markovian structure revealed from financial time series of realized volatility. On the other hand, empirical studies have identified scales in stock price volatility: both fast-time scale on the order of days and slow-scale on the order of months. So, it is natural to study the portfolio optimization problem under the effects of dependence behavior which we will model by fractional Brownian motions with Hurst index H, and in the fast or slow regimes characterized by small parameters eps or delta. For the slowly varying volatility with Hin(0,1), it was shown that the first order correction to the problem value contains two terms of order deltaH, one random component and one deterministic function of state processes, while for the fast varying case with H>half, the same form holds at order eps1−H. This paper is dedicated to the remaining case of a fast-varying rough environment (H<half) which exhibits a different behavior. We show that, in the expansion, only one deterministic term of order sqrteps appears in the first order correction.
