We consider a problem of maximizing the utility of an agent who invests in a stock, money market account and an index bond incorporating life insurance, deterministic income, and consumption. The stock is assumed to be a generalized geometric It?-Lévy process. Assuming a power utility function, we determine the optimal investment-consumption-insurance strategy under inflation risk for the investor in a jump-diffusion setting using martingale approach.
