We consider equilibrium policies within the class of open-loop controls that are characterized, in our context, by means of a variational method which leads to a stochastic system that consists of a flow of forward-backward stochastic differential equations and an equilibrium condition. An explicit representation of the equilibrium policies is provided for the special cases of power, logarithmic and exponential utility functions.27 p.application/pdfengcc-by (c) Alia, Ishak et al., 2021https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/Sistemes estocàsticsAnàlisi estocàsticaEquacions diferencials estocàstiquesStochastic systemsAnalyse stochastiqueStochastic differential equationsTime-consistent investment and consumption strategies under a general discount functioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/article7206812023-02-24info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess
