In this paper, we compare the portfolio allocation model of multifractal detrended Fluctuation approach with the modern efficient frontier model and the asset allocation model from Chinese institution fund, the risk-return performance of the multifractal detrended Fluctuation turns out to be more optimal portfolio allocation than that from Chinese institution fund and the conclusions have impli...

longer follow. The capital asset pricing model (CAPM) is an elegant theory. With the aid of some simplifying assumptions, it comes to dramatic conclusions about practical matters, such as how to choose an investment portfolio, how to forecast the expected return of a security or asset class, how to price a new security, or how to price risky assets in a merger or acquisition. The CAPM starts wi...

With the aim of portfolio optimization and management, this article utilizes the Clayton-copula along with copula theory measures. Portfolio-Optimization is one of the activities in investment funds. Thus, it is essential to select an appropriate optimization method. In modern financial analyses, there is growing evidence indicating the distribution of proceeds of financial properties is not cu...

The paper introduces the structure of parsimonious Portfolio Single Index (PSI) multivariate conditional and stochastic constant correlation volatility models, and methods for estimation of the underlying parameters. These multivariate estimates of volatility can be used for more accurate portfolio and risk management, to enable efficient forecasting of Value-at-Risk (VaR) thresholds, and to de...

We develop asset pricing models' implications for portfolio efficiency when there is conditioning information in the form of a set of lagged instruments. A model of expected returns identifies a portfolio that should be minimum variance efficient with respect to the conditioning information. Our framework refines previous tests of portfolio efficiency by using a given set of conditioning inform...

We present a multi-step model to measure portfolio credit risk that integrates exposure simulation and portfolio credit risk techniques. Thus, it overcomes the major limitation currently shared by portfolio models with derivatives. Specifically, the model is an improvement over current portfolio credit risk models in three main aspects. First, it defines explicitly the joint evolution of market...

A key result of the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) is that the market portfolio— the portfolio of all assets in which each asset’s weight is proportional to its total market capitalization—lies on the mean-variance-efficient frontier, the set of portfolios having mean-variance characteristics that cannot be improved upon. Therefore, the CAPM cannot be consistent with efficient frontiers for...
