We investigate the growth optimal strategy over a finite time horizon for a stock and bond portfolio in an analytically solvable multiplicative Markovian market model. We show that the optimal strategy consists in holding the amount of capital invested in stocks within an interval around an ideal optimal investment. The size of the holding interval is determined by the intensity of the transaction costs and the time horizon.

This work presents a study of a finite-time horizon stochastic control problem with restrictions on both the reward and the cost functions. To this end, it uses standard dynamic programming techniques, and an extension of the classic Lagrange multipliers approach. The coefficients considered here are supposed to be unbounded, and the obtained strategies are of non-stationary closed-loop type. The driving thread of the paper is a sequence of examples on a pollution accumulation model, which is used for the purpose of showing three algorithms for the purpose of replicating the results. There, the reader can find a result on the interchangeability of limits in a Dirichlet problem.
