Abstract: The purpose of this paper is to explore the necessary conditions for optimality of mean-field forward-backward delay control systems. A new estimate is proved, which is a powerfultool to deal with the optimal control problems of mean-field type with delay. Different from the classical situation, in our case the first-order adjoint system is an anticipated mean-field backward stochastic differential equation, and the second-order adjoint system is a system of matrix-valued process, not mean-field type.With the help of two adjoint systems, the second-order expansion of the variation of the state Y is proved, and therewith the Peng's stochastic maximum principle. As an illustrative example, we apply our result to the mean-field game in Finance. Although we just investigate the case of one pointwise delay for convenience, but our method is adequate for analysing the case of pointwise delay.
