Value versus growth: stochastic dominance criteria

Efficient Diversification According to Stochastic Dominance Criteria

T paper develops the first operational tests of portfolio efficiency based on the general stochastic dominance (SD) criteria that account for an infinite set of diversification strategies. The main insight is to preserve the cross-sectional dependence of asset returns when forming portfolios by reexpressing the SD criteria in T -dimensional Euclidean space, with elements representing rates of r...

Decision criteria in risk analysis : an application of stochastic dominance with respect to a function

Fiscal versus Monetary Dominance: Evidence from Iran

In this paper, we dealt with fiscal dominance, which is a situation in which the fiscal authority sets its expenditure and taxes without regard to any requirement of intertemporal budget balance. Therefore, the monetary authority must adjust its policies to ensure that the government budget is in balance. The existence of oil revenues for the government on the one hand and its lack of access to...

Stochastic Dominance

The concept of Stochastic Dominance (SD) appeared in Economics in the context of the study of income distribution, where it provided various criteria for ranking income distributions according to classes of social welfare functions. Although stochastic dominance is still much in use for studies of income distribution and of poverty, more recently it has also found uses in financial economics, w...

Two-stage fuzzy stochastic programming with Value-at-Risk criteria

A new class of fuzzy stochastic optimization models—two-stage fuzzy stochastic programming with Value-at-Risk (FSP-VaR) criteria is built in this paper. Some properties of the two-stage FSP-VaR, such as value of perfect information (VPI), value of fuzzy random solution (VFRS), and bounds of the fuzzy random solution, are discussed. An Approximation Algorithm is proposed to compute the VaR by co...
