Multiperiod Consumption and Investment Behavior with Convex Transactions Costs

Abstract

The effect of convex transactions costs on consumers' derived utility functions and on optimal consumption and investment decisions is examined in a general multiperiod framework. The extent to which multiperiod consumption-investment behavior and capital market equilibrium may be studied in a single period framework is discussed. Optimal investment policy, in terms of a region of no transactions, is shown to be of a particularly simple form.
