Abstract:

In portfolio selection models, uncertainty plays an important role. The parameter’s uncertainty leads to getting away from optimal solution so it is needed to consider that in models. In this paper we presented a two-stage robust model that in first stage determines the desired percentage of investment in each industrial group by using return and risk measures from different industries. One reason of this work is that general conditions of various industries is different and according to the concepts of fundamental analysis should be chosen good groups before selection assets for investment. Another reason is that the identification of several good industries helps to diversify between several groups and reduce the risk of investment. In the second stage of the model, considering assets return, systematic risk, non-systematic risk and also first stage’s result, amount of investment in each asset is determined. In both stages of the model there are uncertain parameters. To deal with uncertainty, a robust approach has been used. Since the model is a multi-objective problem, goal programming method used to solve it. The model was tested on actual data. The results showed that the portfolio formed by this model can be well-established in the conditions of high uncertainty and obtain higher returns.

A Fuzzy Goal Programming Model for Efficient Portfolio Selection.

This paper considers a multi-objective portfolio selection problem imposed by gaining of portfolio, divided yield and risk control in an ambiguous investment environment, in which the return and risk are characterized by probabilistic numbers. Based on the theory of possibility, a new multi-objective portfolio optimization model with gaining of portfolio, divided yield and risk control is propo...

Technology centered organizations must be able to identify promising new products or process improvements at an early stage so that the necessary resources can be allocated to those activities. It is essential to invest in targeted research and development (R and D) projects as opposed to a wide range of ideas so that resources can be focused on successful outcomes. The selection of the most ap...

Portfolio selection through imprecise Goal Programming model: Integration of the manager`s preferences

In the portfolio selection problem, the manager considers several objectives simultaneously such as the rate of return, the liquidity and the risk of portfolios. These objectives are conflicting and incommensurable. Moreover, the objectives can be imprecise. Generally, the portfolio manager seeks the best combination of the stocks that meets his investment objectives. The imprecise Goal Program...
