The Proper Use of Risk Measures in Portfolio Theory

چکیده
This paper discusses and analyzes risk measure properties in order to understand how a risk measure has to be used to optimize the investor’s portfolio choices. In particular, we distinguish between two admissible classes of risk measures proposed in the portfolio literature: safety risk measures and dispersion measures. We study and describe how the risk could depend on other distributional parameters. Then, we examine and discuss the differences between statistical parametric models and linear fund separation ones. Finally, we propose an empirical comparison among three different portfolio choice models which depend on the mean, on a risk measure, and on a skewness parameter. Thus, we assess and value the impact on the investor’s preferences of three different risk measures even considering some derivative assets among the possible choices.

متن کاملThe 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...

Markowitz model is the first modern formulation of portfolio optimization problem. Relyingon historical return of stocks as basic information and using variance as a risk measure aretow drawbacks of this model.

The purpose of this study is to develop portfolio optimization and assets allocation using our proposed models. The study is based on a non-parametric efficiency analysis tool, namely Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA). Conventional DEA models assume non-negative data for inputs and outputs. However, many of these data take the negative value, therefore we propose the MeanSharp-βRisk (MShβR) model...
