Standard finite state and action discrete time Markov decision processes with discounting are studied using a new optimality criterion called moment optimality. A policy is moment optimal if it lexicographically maximizes the sequence of signed moments of total discounted return with a positive (negative) sign if the moment is odd (even). This criterion is equivalent to being a little risk adverse. It is shown that a stationary policy is moment optimal by examining the negative of the Laplace transform of the total return random variable. An algorithm to construct all stationary moment optimal policies is developed. The algorithm is shown to be finite.
