It is shown that stochastic optimization problems ressemble deterministic optimization problems up to the nonanticipativity restriction on the choice of the control policy. This condition can be introduced explicitly in the form of a constraint. Doing so, lead to an optimization problem for which it is possible to derive optimality criteria. The convex case is considered here. It is shown that the variables associated with the nonanticipativity restriction form a martingale. These variables can be used to formulate an equivalent problem allowing for pointwise optimization, a result strongly akin to the Maximum principle. Finally two simple examples are used to illustrate the main results.
