Contingent claim pricing through a continuous time variational bargaining scheme

Resumo:We consider a variational problem modelling the evolution with time of two probability measures representing the subjective beliefs of a couple of agents engaged in a continuous-time bargaining pricing scheme with the goal of finding a unique price for a contingent claim in a continuous-time financialmarket. This optimization problem is coupled with two finite dimensional portfolio optimization problems, one for each agent involved in the bargaining scheme. Undermild conditions, we prove that the optimization problem under consideration here admits a unique solution, yielding a unique price for the contingent claim.
