چکیده

We consider an investor who seeks to maximize her expected utility derived from her terminal wealth relative to the maximum wealth achieved over a fixed time horizon, and under a portfolio drawdown constraint, in a market with local stochastic volatility (LSV). The newly proposed investment objective paradigm also allows the investor to set portfolio benchmark targets. In the absence of closed-form formulas for the value function and optimal portfolio strategy, we obtain approximations for these quantities through the use of a coefficient expansion technique and nonlinear transformations. We utilize regularity properties of the risk tolerance function to numerically compute the estimates for our approximations. In order to achieve similar value functions, we illustrate that, compared to a constant volatility model, the investor must deploy a quite different portfolio strategy which depends on the current level of volatility in the stochastic volatility model.

Outperformance Testing of a Dynamic Assets Portfolio Selection Supplemented with a Continuous Paths Levy Process

This study aims at getting a better performance for optimal stock portfolios by modeling stocks prices dynamics through a continuous paths Levy process. To this end, the share prices are simulated using a multi-dimensional geometric Brownian motion model. Then, we use the results to form the optimal portfolio by maximizing the Sharpe ratio and comparing the findings with the outputs of the conv...

Drawdown Minimization

One measure of riskiness of an investment is “drawdown”, defined, most often in the asset management space, as the decline in net asset value from a historic high point. Mathematically, if the net asset value is denoted by Vt , t ≥ 0, then the current “peak-to-trough” drawdown is given by Dt = Vt − max0≤u≤t Vu. The maximum drawdown, max0≤u≤t Du, is a statistic that the CFTC forces managed futur...

Stock Portfolio Selection Using Chemical Reaction Optimization

Stock portfolio selection is a classic problem in finance, and it involves deciding how to allocate an institution’s or an individual’s wealth to a number of stocks, with certain investment objectives (return and risk). In this paper, we adopt the classical Markowitz mean-variance model and consider an additional common realistic constraint, namely, the cardinality constraint. Thus, stock portf...

Portfolio optimisation under non-linear drawdown constraints in a semimartingale financial model

A drawdown constraint forces the current wealth to remain above a given function of its maximum to date. We consider the portfolio optimisation problem of maximising the long-term growth rate of the expected utility of wealth subject to a drawdown constraint, as in the original setup of Grossman and Zhou (1993). We work in an abstract semimartingale financial market model with a general class o...
