Mean-variance hedging in literature [( T ) 2 ] inf E x + π s ds s ξ. π 0 There exist two approaches to solve mean-variance hedging problem with a deterministic finite horizon: martingale theory and projection arguments: Delbaen-Schachermayer, Gouriéroux-Laurent-Pham, Schweizer,... for the continuous case, and Arai for the semimartingale case, quadratic stochastic control and BSDE: Lim-Zhou, Lim,... for the continuous case and the discontinuous case (driven by a Brownian motion and a Poisson process). Jeanblanc-Mania-Santacroce-Schweizer combine tools from both approaches which allows them to work in a general semimartingale model. Thomas Lim Mean-Variance Hedging 3 / 36
Mean-variance hedging with random horizon For some financial products (e.g. insurance, credit-risk) the horizon of the problem is not deterministic [( T τ ) 2 ] inf E x + π s ds s ξ. π 0 We use a BSDE approach as in Lim and provide a solution to the mean-variance hedging problem with random horizon, dependent jump and continuous parts.
