Abstract

This chapter studies intertemporal investment strategies under inflation risk by extending the dynamic programming we have used so far, to include a stochastic price index. The stochastic price index gives rise to a two-tier evaluation system: agents maximize their utility of consumption in real terms while investment activities and wealth evolution are evaluated in nominal terms.
