In this paper we study the problem of pricing contingent claims for a large investor (i.e. the coefficients of the price equation can also depend on the wealth process of the hedger) in an incomplete market where the portfolios are constrained. We formulate this problem so as to find the minimal solution of forward–backward stochastic differential equations (FBSDEs) with constraints. We use the penalization method to construct a sequence of FBSDEs without constraints, and we show that the solutions of these equations converge to the minimal solution we are interested in.
