Abstract

We consider a popular model of microeconomics with countably many assets: the Arbitrage Pricing Model. We study the problem of optimal investment under an expected utility criterion and look for conditions ensuring the existence of optimal strategies. Previous results required a certain restrictive hypothesis on the tails of asset return distributions. Using a different method, we manage to remove this hypothesis, at the price of stronger assumptions on the moments of asset returns.
