dc.description.abstractA backward stochastic differential equation (BSDE) approach is used to evaluate convex risk measures for unhedged positions of derivative securities in a continuous-time economy. The convex risk measure is represented as the solution of a BSDE. We use the Clark-Ocone representation result together with Malliavin calculus to identify the integrand in the martingale representation associated with the BSDE. In the Markov case, we relate the BSDE solution to a partial differential equation solution for convex risk measure evaluation.
