The existence solution for a class of economic equilibrium type problems in reflexive Banach space is considered. New results concerning the variational inequality approach to Arrow-Debreu model of economic equilibrium introduced in Naniewicz (Math Oper Res 32:436-466, 2007) are found and applied to ensure the existence of Pareto optimal solutions for a class of multiobjective optimization problems with so-called budget-like constraints. To achieve this goal, the theory of pseudo-monotone multivalued mappings combined with some fixed point technique for multivalued mappings with nonconvex values is used.
