چکیده
Over the past decades the complexity of financial decisions has increased rapidly, thus highlighting the importance of developing and implementing sophisticated and efficient quantitative analysis techniques for supporting and aiding financial decision making. Multicriteria decision aid (MCDA), an advanced branch of operations research, provides financial decision makers and analysts with a wide range of methodologies wellsuited for the complexity of modern financial decision making. The aim of this chapter is to provide an in-depth presentation of the contributions of MCDA in finance focusing on the methods used, applications, computation, and directions for future research.

Stochastic Multicriteria Acceptability Analysis (SMAA) is a family of methods to aid decision makers (DMs) in discrete decision making problems. SMAA methods are capable of handling preference information of various types. The imprecise preferences of multiple DMs can for example be represented by a joint probability distribution for criteria weights. Dempster-Shafer theory with Analytic Hierar...
