An algorithm for solving continuous-time stochastic optimal control problem s is presented. The numerical scheme is based on the stochastic maximum principle (SMP) as an altern ativ to the widely studied dynamic programming principle (DDP). By using the SMP, (Peng, 1990) ob tained a system of coupled forwardbackward stochastic differential equations (FBSDE) with an external op timality condition. We extend the numerical scheme of (Delarue and Menozzi, 2006) by a Newton-Raph son method to solve the FBSDE system and the optimality condition simultaneously. As far as the authors are aware, this is the first fully explicit numerical scheme for the solution of optimal control problems through th e solution of the corresponding extended FBSDE system. We discuss possible numerical advantages to th DDP approach and consider an optimal investment-consumption problem as an example.
