چکیده

This article examines the efficiency of five risk measures in the framework of portfolio optimization for the stocks of four China’s stock markets and investigates which risk measure has the best performance in making asset allocation decisions. The data used are the historical monthly stock returns from 1998 to 2002. Although the downside risk measures are thought to be consistent with investors’ actual perception of risk, our finding shows that the traditional Mean-Variance model is much more efficient and has the best performance in forming global minimum risk portfolios among all five risk measures.
