Portfolio Optimization: Distributional Approach
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper analyses the stable distributional approach for portfolio optimisation. We consider a portfolio optimization problem under the assumption of normal (Gaussian) and stable (nonGaussian) distributed asset returns. We compare the results of portfolio allocations in normal and stable cases.

Robustness-based portfolio optimization under epistemic uncertainty
In this paper, we propose formulations and algorithms for robust portfolio optimization under both aleatory uncertainty (i.e., natural variability) and epistemic uncertainty (i.e., imprecise probabilistic information) arising from interval data. Epistemic uncertainty is represented using two approaches: (1) moment bounding approach and (2) likelihood-based approach. This paper first proposes a ...
متن کاملStock Portfolio Optimization Using Water Cycle Algorithm (Comparative Approach)
Portfolio selection process is a subject focused by many researchers. Various criteria involved in this process have undergone alterations over time, necessitating the use of appropriate investment decision support tools. An optimization approach used in different sciences is using meta-heuristic algorithms. In the present study, using Water Cycle Algorithm (WCA), a model was introduced for sel...
متن کاملRobustness in portfolio optimization based on minimax regret approach
Portfolio optimization is one of the most important issues for effective and economic investment. There is plenty of research in the literature addressing this issue. Most of these pieces of research attempt to make the Markowitz’s primary portfolio selection model more realistic or seek to solve the model for obtaining fairly optimum portfolios. An efficient frontier in the ...
متن کاملPortfolio optimization when risk factors are conditionally varying and heavy tailed
Assumptions about the dynamic and distributional behavior of risk factors are crucial for the construction of optimal portfolios and for risk assessment. Although asset returns are generally characterized by conditionally varying volatilities and fat tails, the normal distribution with constant variance continues to be the standard framework in portfolio management. Here we propose a practical ...
متن کاملPortfolio selection under distributional uncertainty: A relative robust CVaR approach
Robust optimization, one of the most popular topics in the field of optimization and control since the late 1990s, deals with an optimization problem involving uncertain parameters. In this paper, we consider the relative robust conditional value-at-risk portfolio selection problem where the underlying probability distribution of portfolio return is only known to belong to a certain set. Our ap...
