Semimartingale price systems in models with transaction costs beyond efficient friction

Abstract

A standing assumption in the literature on proportional transaction costs is efficient friction. Together with robust no free lunch with vanishing risk, it rules out strategies of infinite variation, as they usually appear in frictionless markets. In this paper, we show how the models with and without transaction costs can be unified. The bid and the ask price of a risky asset are given by c\'adl\'ag processes which are locally bounded from below and may coincide at some points. In a first step, we show that if the bid-ask model satisfies "no unbounded profit with bounded risk" for simple strategies, then there exists a semimartingale lying between the bid and the ask price process. In a second step, under the additional assumption that the zeros of the bid-ask spread are either starting points of an excursion away from zero or inner points from the right, we show that for every bounded predictable strategy specifying the amount of risky assets, the semimartingale can be used to construct the corresponding self-financing risk-free position in a consistent way. Finally, the set of most general strategies is introduced, which also provides a new view on the frictionless case.
