Abstract
Without the linear growth condition on the drift coefficient, this article examines the existence and uniqueness of global solutions of a class of neutral stochastic differential equations with unbounded delay and their asymptotic stabilities with general decay rate. To illustrate the application of our results, this article gives a two-dimensional system as an example.
