Book Multiperiod Portfolio Optimization with Many Risky Assets and General Transaction Costs

Download or read book Multiperiod Portfolio Optimization with Many Risky Assets and General Transaction Costs written by Victor DeMiguel and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We analyze the optimal portfolio policy for a multiperiod mean-variance investor facing a large number of risky assets in the presence of general transaction cost. For proportional transaction costs, we give a closed-form expression for a no-trade region, shaped as a multi-dimensional parallelogram, and show how the optimal portfolio policy can be efficiently computed by solving a single quadratic program. For market impact costs, we show that at each period it is optimal to trade to the boundary of a state-dependent rebalancing region. Finally, we show empirically that the utility loss associated with ignoring transaction costs may be large.

Book Parameter Uncertainty in Multiperiod Portfolio Optimization with Transaction Costs

Download or read book Parameter Uncertainty in Multiperiod Portfolio Optimization with Transaction Costs written by Victor DeMiguel and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 45 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We study the impact of parameter uncertainty on the expected utility of a multiperiod investor subject to quadratic transaction costs. We characterize the utility loss associated with ignoring parameter uncertainty, and show that it is equal to the product between the single-period utility loss and another term that captures the effects of the multiperiod mean-variance utility and transaction cost losses. To mitigate the impact of parameter uncertainty, we propose two multiperiod shrinkage portfolios and demonstrate with simulated and empirical datasets that they substantially outperform portfolios that ignore parameter uncertainty, transaction costs, or both.

Book Simulation Based Portfolio Optimization for Large Portfolios with Transaction Costs

Download or read book Simulation Based Portfolio Optimization for Large Portfolios with Transaction Costs written by Kumar Muthuraman and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page 31 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We consider a portfolio optimization problem where the investor's objective is to maximize the long-term expected growth rate, in the presence of proportional transaction costs. This problem belongs to the class of stochastic control problems with singular controls, which are usually solved by computing solutions to related partial differential equations called the free-boundary Hamilton Jacobi Bellman (HJB) equations. The dimensionality of the HJB equals the number of stocks in the portfolio. The runtime of existing solution methods grow super-exponentially with dimension, making them unsuitable to compute optimal solutions to portfolio optimization problems with even four stocks. In this work we first present a boundary update procedure that converts the free boundary problem into a sequence of fixed boundary problems. Then by combining simulation with the boundary update procedure, we provide a computational scheme whose runtime, as shown by the numerical tests, scales polynomially in dimension. The results are compared and corroborated against existing methods that scale super-exponentially in dimension. The method presented herein enables the first ever computational solution to free-boundary problems in dimensions greater than three.

Book Multi Dimensional Portfolio Optimization with Proportional Transaction Costs

Download or read book Multi Dimensional Portfolio Optimization with Proportional Transaction Costs written by Kumar Muthuraman and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We provide a computational study of the problem of optimally allocating wealth among multiple stocks and a bank account, in order to maximize the infinite horizon discounted utility of consumption. We consider the situation where the transfer of wealth from one asset to another involves transaction costs that are proportional to the amount of wealth transferred. Our model allows for correlation between the price processes, which in turn gives rise to interesting hedging strategies. This results in a stochastic control problem with both drift-rate and singular controls, that can be recast as a free boundary problem in partial differential equations. Adapting the finite element method and using an iterative procedure that converts the free-boundary problem into a sequence of fixed boundary problems, we provide an efficient numerical method for solving this problem. We present computational results that describe the impact of volatility, risk aversion of the investor, level of transaction costs and correlation among the risky assets on the structure of the optimal policy. Finally we suggest and quantify some heuristic approximations.

Book Portfolio Theory and Performance Analysis

Download or read book Portfolio Theory and Performance Analysis written by Noel Amenc and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2005-01-21 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For many years asset management was considered to be a marginal activity, but today, it is central to the development of financial industry throughout the world. Asset management's transition from an "art and craft" to an industry has inevitably called integrated business models into question, favouring specialisation strategies based on cost optimisation and learning curve objectives. This book connects each of these major categories of techniques and practices to the unifying and seminal conceptual developments of modern portfolio theory. In these bear market times, performance evaluation of portfolio managers is of central focus. This book will be one of very few on the market and is by a respected member of the profession. Allows the professionals, whether managers or investors, to take a step back and clearly separate true innovations from mere improvements to well-known, existing techniques Puts into context the importance of innovations with regard to the fundamental portfolio management questions, which are the evolution of the investment management process, risk analysis and performance measurement Takes the explicit or implicit assumptions contained in the promoted tools into account and, by so doing, evaluate the inherent interpretative or practical limits

Book Robust Portfolio Optimization and Management

Download or read book Robust Portfolio Optimization and Management written by Frank J. Fabozzi and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2007-06-04 with total page 517 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Praise for Robust Portfolio Optimization and Management "In the half century since Harry Markowitz introduced his elegant theory for selecting portfolios, investors and scholars have extended and refined its application to a wide range of real-world problems, culminating in the contents of this masterful book. Fabozzi, Kolm, Pachamanova, and Focardi deserve high praise for producing a technically rigorous yet remarkably accessible guide to the latest advances in portfolio construction." --Mark Kritzman, President and CEO, Windham Capital Management, LLC "The topic of robust optimization (RO) has become 'hot' over the past several years, especially in real-world financial applications. This interest has been sparked, in part, by practitioners who implemented classical portfolio models for asset allocation without considering estimation and model robustness a part of their overall allocation methodology, and experienced poor performance. Anyone interested in these developments ought to own a copy of this book. The authors cover the recent developments of the RO area in an intuitive, easy-to-read manner, provide numerous examples, and discuss practical considerations. I highly recommend this book to finance professionals and students alike." --John M. Mulvey, Professor of Operations Research and Financial Engineering, Princeton University

Book Multi Period Portfolio Optimization Model with Cone Constraints and Discrete Decisions

Download or read book Multi Period Portfolio Optimization Model with Cone Constraints and Discrete Decisions written by Ümit Saglam and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 28 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this study, we consider multi-period portfolio optimization model that is formulated as a mixed-integer second-order cone programming problems (MISOCPs). The Markowitz (1952) mean/variance framework has been extended by including transaction costs, conditional value-at-risk (CVaR), diversification-by-sector and buy-in thresholds constraints. The model is obtained using a binary scenario tree that is constructed with monthly returns of the stocks from the S&P 500. We solve these models with a MATLAB based Mixed Integer Linear and Nonlinear Optimizer (MILANO). Numerical results show that we can solve small to medium-sized instances successfully, and we provide a substantial improvement in runtimes using warmstarts in outer approximation algorithm.

Book Single  and Multi Period Portfolio Optimization with Cone Constraints and Discrete Decisions

Download or read book Single and Multi Period Portfolio Optimization with Cone Constraints and Discrete Decisions written by Ümit Saglam and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Portfolio optimization literature has come quite far in the decades since the first publication, and many modern models are formulated using second-order cone constraints and take discrete decisions into consideration. In this study, we consider both single-period and multi-period portfolio optimization problems based on the Markowitz (1952) mean/variance framework, where there is a trade-off between expected return and the risk that the investor may be willing to take on. Our model is aggregated from current literature. In this model, we have included transaction costs, conditional value-at-risk (CVaR) constraints, diversification-by-sector constraints, and buy-in-thresholds. Our numerical experiments are conducted on portfolios drawn from 20 to 400 different stocks available from the S&P 500 for the single period-model. The multi-period portfolio optimization model is obtained using a binary scenario tree that is constructed with monthly returns of the closing price of the stocks from the S&P 500. We solve these models with a MATLAB based Mixed Integer Linear and Nonlinear Optimizer (MILANO). We provide a substantial improvement in runtimes using warmstarts in both branch-and-bound and outer approximation algorithms.

Book Multi period Portfolio Optimization with Investor Views Under Regime Switching

Download or read book Multi period Portfolio Optimization with Investor Views Under Regime Switching written by Razvan Gabriel Oprisor and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We propose a novel multi-period trading model that allows portfolio managers to perform optimal portfolio allocation while incorporating their interpretable investment views. This model's significant advantage is its incorporation of the latest asset return regimes to quantitatively solve managers' question: how certain should one be that a given investment view is occurring? First, we describe a framework for multi-period portfolio allocation formulated as a convex optimization problem that trades off expected return, risk and transaction costs. Second, we use the Black-Litterman model to combine investment views specified in a simple linear combination based format with the market portfolio. A data-driven method to adjust the confidence in the manager's views by comparing them to dynamically updated regime-switching forecasts is proposed. Our contribution is to incorporate both multi-period trading and interpretable investment views into one efficient framework and offer a novel method of using regime-switching to determine each view's confidence.
