Self-financing portfolio

In financial mathematics, a self-financing portfolio is a portfolio having the feature that, if there is no exogenous infusion or withdrawal of money, the purchase of a new asset must be financed by the sale of an old one. This concept is used to define for example admissible strategies and replicating portfolios, the latter being fundamental for arbitrage-free derivative pricing.
