contents We study a stochastic control problem where the underlying process follows a spectrally negative Lévy process. A controller can continuously increase the process but only decrease it at independent Poisson arrival times. We show the optimality of the double-barrier strategy, which increases the process whenever it would fall below some lower barrier and decreases it whenever it is observed above a higher barrier. An optimal strategy and the associated value function are written semi-explicitly using scale functions. Numerical results are also given.
