چکیده
NAG Libraries have many powerful and reliable optimizers which can be used to solve large portfolio optimization and selection problems in the financial industry. Below is an introduction into the notation and techniques used in portfolio optimization. We discuss some sample problems and present help in choosing an appropriate NAG optimizer. Finally, there is a section on handling transaction cost for the portfolio optimization.

Optimizing Omega
Abstract This paper considers the Omega function, proposed by Cascon, Keating & Shadwick, as a performance evaluation measure for comparison between financial assets. We discuss the optimization problems which arise when the Omega function is used as a basis for portfolio selection. We show that the problem of choosing invested fractions to maximize Omega typically has many local solutions and ...
متن کاملSolving PDE Problems on Parallel and Distributed Computer Systems Using the NAG Parallel Library
The NAG Parallel Library enables users to take advantage of the increased computing power and memory capacity ooered by multiple processors. It provides parallel subroutines in some of the areas covered by traditional numerical libraries, such as dense and sparse linear algebra, optimization, quadrature and random number generation, as well as utility routines for data distribution, input/outpu...
متن کاملRobustness-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 ...
