Worst-Case Portfolio Optimization under Stochastic Interest Rate Risk
نویسندگان
چکیده
We investigate a portfolio optimization problem under the threat of a market crash, where the interest rate of the bond is modeled as a Vasicek process, which is correlated with the stock price process. We adopt a non-probabilistic worst-case approach for the height and time of the market crash. On a given time horizon [0, T ], we then maximize the investor’s expected utility of terminal wealth in the worst-case crash scenario. Our main result is an explicit characterization of the worst-case optimal portfolio strategy for the class of HARA (hyperbolic absolute risk aversion) utility functions.

Robust Portfolio Optimization with risk measure CVAR under MGH distribution in DEA models
Financial returns exhibit stylized facts such as leptokurtosis, skewness and heavy-tailness. Regarding this behavior, in this paper, we apply multivariate generalized hyperbolic (mGH) distribution for portfolio modeling and performance evaluation, using conditional value at risk (CVaR) as a risk measure and allocating best weights for portfolio selection. Moreover, a robust portfolio optimizati...
متن کاملOptimal Portfolio Selection for Tehran Stock Exchange Using Conditional, Partitioned and Worst-case Value at Risk Measures
This paper presents an optimal portfolio selection approach based on value at risk (VaR), conditional value at risk (CVaR), worst-case value at risk (WVaR) and partitioned value at risk (PVaR) measures as well as calculating these risk measures. Mathematical solution methods for solving these optimization problems are inadequate and very complex for a portfolio with high number of assets. For t...
متن کاملDual stochastic dominance and quantile risk measures
Following the seminal work by Markowitz, the portfolio selection problem is usually modeled as a bicriteria optimization problem where a reasonable trade-off between expected rate of return and risk is sought. In the classical Markowitz model, the risk is measured with variance. Several other risk measures have been later considered thus creating the entire family of mean-risk (Markowitz type) ...
متن کاملInsurer Optimal Asset Allocation in a Small and Closed Economy: The Case of Iran’s Social Security Organization
We seek to determine the optimal amount of the insurer’s investment in all types of assets for a small and closed economy. The goal is to detect the implications and contributions the risk seeker and risk aversion insurer commonly make and the effectiveness in the investment decision. Also, finding the optimum portfolio for each is the main goal of the present study. To this end, we adopted the...
متن کاملPortfolio Optimization with Ambiguous Correlation and Stochastic Volatilities
In a continuous-time economy, we investigate the asset allocation problem among a risk-free asset and two risky assets with an ambiguous correlation between the two risky assets. The portfolio selection that is robust to the uncertain correlation is formulated as the utility maximization problem over the worst-case scenario with respect to the possible choice of correlation. Thus, it becomes a ...
