Cardinality Constrained Portfolio Optimisation

The traditional quadratic programming approach to portfolio optimisation is difficult to implement when there are cardinality constraints. Recent approaches to resolving this have used heuristic algorithms to search for points on the cardinality constrained frontier. However, these can be computationally expensive when the practitioner does not know a priori exactly how many assets they may des...

Time Weighted Portfolio Optimisation

In estimating the inputs into the Modern Portfolio Theory (MPT) portfolio optimisation problem it is usual to use equal weighted historic data. Equal weighting of the data, however, does not take account of the current state of the market. Consequently this approach is unlikely to perform well in any subsequent period as the data is still reflecting market conditions that are no longer valid. T...

Mean - Variance Portfolio Optimisation

QP is the optimization of a quadratic function subject to linear equality and inequality constraints. It arises in multiple objective decision making where the departure of the actual decisions from their corresponding ideal, or bliss, value can be evaluated using a weighted quadratic norm as a measure of deviation. The formulation of mean-variance optimization of uncertain systems also leads t...
