Portfolio Selection with Higher Moments
We propose a method for optimal portfolio selection using a Bayesian framework that addresses two major shortcomings of the Markowitz approach: the ability to handle higher moments and estimation error. We employ the skew normal distribution which has many attractive features for modeling multivariate returns. Our results suggest that it is important to incorporate higher order moments in portf...
متن کاملNonparametric Estimation of Higher-Order Moments of Technical Efficiency
In this paper nonparametric techniques are used to estimate higher-order moments of technical efficiency. The procedures given in this paper allow the moments to be estimated with relative ease, while at the same not requiring restrictive assumptions on the distribution of inefficiency. The results given by these estimates will allow researchers to gain additional information on the inefficienc...

We propose a method for optimal portfolio selection using a Bayesian decision theoretic framework that addresses two major shortcomings of the Markowitz approach: the ability to handle higher moments and estimation error. We employ the skew normal distribution which has many attractive features for modeling multivariate returns. Our results suggest that it is important to incorporate higher ord...
متن کاملGlobal optimization of higher order moments in portfolio selection
We discuss the global optimization of the higher order moments of a portfolio of financial assets. The proposed model is an extension of the celebrated mean variance model of Markowitz. Asset returns typically exhibit excess kurtosis and are often skewed. Moreover investors would prefer positive skewness and try to reduce kurtosis of their portfolio returns. Therefore the mean variance model (a...
متن کاملOptimal Portfolio with Nonparametric Learning
We consider the optimal investment-consumption problem with an unknown distribution for the investment returns. After taking the Bayesian approach, the problem is formulated as a Markov decision process in a nonparametric context. We discuss the existence of the optimal strategy and derive the closed form solution of the optimal portfolio. When the prior distribution is a Dirichlet process, the...
