Self-Financing Portfolio Process A self-financing portfolio process (V t ) T t=0 is a stochastic process of portfolio vectors (of physical units ) if starting with no assets you can trade for V t from the portfolio V t 1. t = 0,..., T : V t V t 1 K t with V 1 = 0 and K t is a solvency region. Let K t,s := s r=t Lp r(k r ) denote the portfolios reachable from time t at time s. Z. Feinstein Set-Valued Risk Measures and Bellman s Principle 37 / 54

69 6.1 Examples: Superhedging SHP t (X) := {u L p t X + u K t,t }. If the market model (K t ) T t=0 satisfies proper no-arbitrage argument (robust no scalable arbitrage) then the superhedging portfolios can be found via the dual representation with penalty function: α SHP t (Q, w) = T {u L p t s=t ess sup w T E Q [k F t ] w T u k L p s(k s) } Z. Feinstein Set-Valued Risk Measures and Bellman s Principle 38 / 54

70 6.1 Examples: Superhedging SHP t (X) := {u L p t X + u K t,t }. If the market model (K t ) T t=0 satisfies proper no-arbitrage argument (robust no scalable arbitrage) then the superhedging portfolios can be found via the dual representation with penalty function: α SHP t (Q, w) = T {u L p t s=t ess sup w T E Q [k F t ] w T u k L p s(k s) } This is multiportfolio time consistent, but not necessarily self-recursive. Z. Feinstein Set-Valued Risk Measures and Bellman s Principle 38 / 54

71 6.1 Examples: Superhedging If solvency cones (K t is a.s. a cone) then the superhedging portfolios are conditionally coherent with dual variables defined by W {t,...,t } = {(Q, w) W t s {t,..., T } : w s t (Q, w) L q s(k + s ) } Z.
