This paper is concerned with a problem on optimization in stock price model that allows for jumps in the stochastic processes. We show that the problem is formulated into the optimal stochastic control problem under the criterion of mean square tracking error at the end of the planning horizon. The optimal control and the optimal proportion invested in the index fund which are specified by the product of the market value of risk and the discounted terminal value of bench mark portfolio are derived by the solution to ordinary differential equations associated with an adjoint equation. 1 Introduction. The performance of investment in capital market under uncertainty is often evaluated in comparison with the benchmark portfolio. Some of the most widely known benchmark portfolios are the Standard & Poor's 500 (S & P 500), Financial Times Stock Exchange 100 Share Index, the Tokyo Stock Price Index (TOPIX) and The NIKKEI 225. However, if we actually wish to hold such a benchmark portfolio, we have to make up our minds to hold it at huge transaction, management and information collection costs, since it includes almost all or large number of securities in the market(10). Thus, it has been emphasized that the portfolio with a small number of securities which closely track the benchmark portfolio is of great concern to risk hedge and to portfolio management. Such a portfolio is called an index fund and in a case in point. So the problem can be regaraded as an optimization problem to minimize the tracking error between the benchmark portfolio and the index fund. In this paper, the tracking error is defined as the mean square error between the returns of benchmark and index fund. In a discrete time framwork, Green(3), Meada and Salkin(5) developed the relation- ship between the index fund and the frontier portfolio in the sense of the mean-variance framework. Tabata and Takeda(9) formulated this problem into a quardratic programming problem with 0-1 variables and proposed the efficient method to find an index fund which minimizes the mean square of tracking error in descrete time static model. On the other hand, much effort has been devoted to the continuous time model in the modern mathematical finance theory. As was pointed out by R. Cont and P. Tankov(1), Levy processes and other stochastic processes with jumps have become increasingly popular for modelling market fluctuations, both for risk management and option pricing purposes. Applications of the stochastic control to a financial problem, especially to the pricing of derivatives are found in Yong and Zhou(11), Kohlmann and Zhou(4), Framstad (2), Oksendal and Sulem (7) and so on. Mistui and Tabata (4) analized Levy process by means of the Teugel's martingale and showed the existence of a unique optimal hedging strategy. In this paper, we derive the optimal index fund based upon the stochastic control tech- nique. In section 2 we give our basic market model with continuous time. Section 3 deals
