Abstract

This paper is concerned with the optimal control of rational expectations models in the general case of longer forward-looking time (d\geq 2). The main contribution is the necessary and sufficient condition for the solvability of the finite-horizon problem. In particular, explicit characterizations of the optimal solution and the optimal cost are given in terms of difference equations. The key technique is to solve the forward and backward stochastic difference equations (FBSDEs) obtained by the stochastic maximum principle.
