Abstract:
The numéraire portfolio in a financial market is the unique positive wealth process that makes all other nonnegative wealth processes, when deflated by it, supermartingales. The numéraire portfolio depends on market characteristics, which include: (a) the information flow available to acting agents, given by a filtration; (b) the statistical evolution of the asset prices and, more generally, the states of nature, given by a probability measure; and (c) possible restrictions that acting agents might be facing on available investment strategies, modeled by a constraint set. In a financial market with continuous-path asset prices, we establish the stable behavior of the numéraire portfolio when each of the aforementioned market parameters is changed in an infinitesimal way.
