Portfolio optimization is the process of making investment decisions on holding a set of financial assets to meet various criteria. A variety of investment assets around the world make this multi-faceted decision problem very complicated. Econometric and statistical models as well as machine learning and data mining techniques have been used by many researchers and analysts to propose heuristic...

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...

Recently, the economic crisis has resulted in instability in stock exchange market and this has caused high volatilities in stock value of exchanged firms.

Multi-objective Portfolio selection (Return, Liquidity, Risk and Initial cost of Investment objectives) using MINMAX fuzzy goal programmin...

modern portfolio theory is based on harry markowitz's 1952 work on mean-variance portfolios. he stated that a rational investor should either maximize his expected return for a given level of risk, or minimize his risk for a given expected return. in this study the markowitz model with cardinality constraints was studied. we extend the standard model to include cardinality constraints that...
