We introduce a bond portfolio management theory based on foundations similar to those of stock portfolio management. A general continuous-time zero-coupon market is considered. The problem of optimal portfolios of zero-coupon bonds is solved for general utility functions, under a condition of no-arbitrage in the zero-coupon market. A mutual fund theorem is proved, in the case of deterministic volatilities. Explicit expressions are given for the optimal solutions for several utility functions.Subjects / Keywords
