Optimal portfolio selection strategies under some constraints

A portfolio selection problem for any utility function is introduced, where all the market coefficients are random and the wealth process under any admissible trading strategy is not allowed to be below a benchmark wealth process. The problem is completely solved using a decomposition approach. First, the portfolio selection problem is formulated, and its feasibility is characterized. Then, the problem is decomposed to two steps to solve. After a system of equations for a Lagrange multiplier is solved, the portfolio selection problem is derived as the replicating portfolios of contingent claims. Finally, some simulations are demonstrated.
