چکیده

On the basis of Markowitz mean-variance framework, a new optimal portfolio selection approach is presented. The portfolio selection model proposed in the approach includes the expected return, the risk, and especially a quadratic type transaction cost of a portfolio. Using this model may yield an optimal portfolio solution that maximizes return, and minimizes risk, as well as also minimizes transaction costs by softening the transaction strength and smoothing the volume of the transacted securities in trading process. The optimization problem appeared in this approach is convex and can be solved by the quadratic programming (QP) routine. A case study demonstrates the effectiveness and the significant performance improvements of the optimal portfolio selection strategy proposed.

Dynamic Mean-Variance Portfolio Selection with Transaction Costs

This paper investigates a mean-variance portfolio selection problem in continuous time with fixed and proportional transaction costs. Utilizing the dynamic programming, the Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman (HJB) equation is derived, and the explicit closed form solution is obtained. Furthermore, the optimal strategies and efficient frontiers are also proposed for the original mean-variance problem. Nume...

MULTIPERIOD CREDIBILITIC MEAN SEMI-ABSOLUTE DEVIATION PORTFOLIO SELECTION

In this paper, we discuss a multiperiod portfolio selection problem with fuzzy returns. We present a new credibilitic multiperiod mean semi- absolute deviation portfolio selection with some real factors including transaction costs, borrowing constraints, entropy constraints, threshold constraints and risk control. In the proposed model, we quantify the investment return and risk associated with...

The Tail Mean-Variance Model and Extended Efficient Frontier

In portfolio theory, it is well-known that the distributions of stock returns often have non-Gaussian characteristics. Therefore, we need non-symmetric distributions for modeling and accurate analysis of actuarial data. For this purpose and optimal portfolio selection, we use the Tail Mean-Variance (TMV) model, which focuses on the rare risks but high losses and usually happens in the tail of r...

Multiperiod Portfolio Selection with Different Rates for Borrowing and Lending in Presence of Transaction Costs

Portfolio management is one of the most important areas of research in financial engineering. This paper is concerned with multi period decision problem for financial asset allocation when the rate of borrowing is greater than the rate of lending. Transaction costs as a source of concern for portfolio managers is also considered in this paper. The proposed method of this paper is formulated in ...

A memetic algorithm for cardinality-constrained portfolio optimization with transaction costs

A memetic approach that combines a genetic algorithm (GA) and quadratic programming is used to address the problem of optimal portfolio selection with cardinality constraints and piecewise linear transaction costs. The framework used is an extension of the standard Markowitz mean–variance model that incorporates realistic constraints, such as upper and lower bounds for investment in individual ...
