  We study a coupled system of controlled stochastic differential equations (SDEs) driven by a Brownian motion and a compensated Poisson random measure, consisting of a forward SDE in the unknown process X(t) and a predictive mean-field backward SDE (BSDE) in the unknowns Y(t),Z(t),K(t,⋅). The driver of the BSDE at time t may depend not just upon the unknown processes Y(t),Z(t),K(t,⋅), but also on the predicted future value Y(t+δ), defined by the conditional expectation A(t):=E[Y(t+δ)|Ft]. We give a sufficient and a necessary maximum principle for the optimal control of such systems, and then we apply these results to the following two problems: (i) Optimal portfolio in a financial market with an insider influenced asset price process. (ii) Optimal consumption rate from a cash flow modeled as a geometric Itô-Lévy SDE, with respect to predictive recursive utility.

  We study optimal stochastic control problems of general coupled systems of forward-backward stochastic differential equations with jumps. By means of the Itô-Ventzell formula, the system is transformed into a controlled backward stochastic partial differential equation. Using a comparison principle for such equations we obtain a general stochastic Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman (HJB) equation for the value function of the control problem. In the case of Markovian optimal control of jump diffusions, this equation reduces to the classical HJB equation. The results are applied to study risk minimization in financial markets.

  The single auction equilibrium of Kyle’s (1985) is studied, in which noise traders may be partially informed, or alternatively they can be manipulated. Unlike Kyle’s assumption that the quantity traded by the noise traders is independent of the asset value, we assume that the noise traders are able to correlate their trade with the true price. This has several implications for the equilibrium, one being that the informed trader’s expected profits decrease as the noise traders’ ability to correlate positively improve. In the limit, the noise traders do not lose on average, and the informed trader makes zero expected profits. When the correlation is negative, we interpret this as manipulation. In this case the insider makes the highest expected profits, and the informativeness of prices is at its minimum.

  The continuous-time version of Kyle’s (Econometrica 53(6):1315–1336, 1985) model of asset pricing with asymmetric information is studied, and generalized in various directions, i.e., by allowing time-varying liquidity trading, and by having weaker a priori assumptions on the model. This extension is made possible by the use of filtering theory. We derive the optimal trade for an insider and the corresponding price of the risky asset; the insider’s trading intensity satisfies a deterministic integral equation, given perfect inside information.

  The continuous-time version of Kyle's (1985) model is studied, in which market makers are not fiduciaries. They have some market power which they utilize to set the price to their advantage, resulting in positive expected profits. This has several implications for the equilibrium, the most important being that by setting a modest fee conditional of the order ow, the market maker is able to obtain a profit of the order of magnitude, and even better than, a perfectly informed insider. Our model also indicates why speculative prices are more volatile than predicted by fundamentals.

  The continuous-time version of Kyle's (1985) model of asset pricing with asymmetric information is studied, and generalized by allowing time-varying noise trading. From rather simple assumptions we are able to derive the optimal trade for an insider; the trading intensity satisfies a deterministic integral equation, given perfect inside information, which we give a closed form solution to. We use a new technique called forward integration in order to find the optimal trading strategy. This is an extension of the stochastic integral which takes account of the informational asymmetry inherent in this problem. The market makers' price response is found by the use of filtering theory. The novelty is our approach, which could be extended in scope.

  The single auction equilibrium of Kyle's (1985) is studied, in which noise traders may be partially informed, or alternatively they can be manipulated. Unlike Kyle's assumption that the quantity traded by the noise traders is independent of the asset value, we assume that the noise traders are able to correlate their trade with the true price. This has several implications for the equilibrium, one being that the insider's expected profits decrease as the noise traders' ability to correlate positively improve. In the limit, the noise traders do not lose on average, and the insider makes zero expected profits. When the correlation is negative, we interpret this as manipulation. In this case the insider makes the highest expected profits, and the informativeness of prices is at its minimum.

  In this paper we prove a sufficient maximum principle for general stochastic differential Stackelberg games, and apply the theory to continuous time newsvendor problems. In the newsvendor problem a manufacturer sells goods to a retailer, and the objective of both parties is to maximize expected profits under a random demand rate. Our demand rate is an Ito-Levy process, and to increase realism information is delayed, e.g., due to production time. We provide complete existence and uniqueness proofs for a series of special cases, including geometric Brownian motion and the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process, both with time variable coefficients. Moreover, these results are operational because we are able to offer explicit solution formulas. An interesting finding is that more precise information may be a considerable disadvantage for the retailer.
