Portfolio Optimization for Defence Applications

Abstract: The problem of designing an effective future defense force is quite complex and challenging. One methodology that is often employed in this domain is portfolio optimization, whereby the objective is to select a diverse set of assets that maximize the return on investment. In the defense context, the return on investment is often measured in terms of the capabilities that the investments will provide. While the field of portfolio optimization is well established, applications in the defense sector pose unique c… Show more

“…In Brazil, large ecosystems and SoS were found in the defense industry [35], as military systems usually have hundreds of suppliers and several innovative complementors. Furthermore, cases in the defense domain are also worthy of study as they pose particular challenges not seen in other sectors [36,37]. Accordingly, the author selected three ecosystems from the Brazilian armored vehicle sector to support the multiple case study.…”

“…The approach presented in this study is an application of non-linear cardinalityconstraints optimization, where the main goal is to strike a balance between maximizing returns and minimizing risks [13]. While some studies opted a penalty on the l 1 norm of the weight vector or its alternatives, others explicitly enforce cardinality constraints [12].…”

“…Noteworthy, the formulation of the regularized problem exhibited better mathematical properties than the corresponding cardinality-constrained problems. This is because it can minimize risks while maximizing expected returns in the context of portfolio optimization [13]. The formulation of the regularized problem has also been shown to be well-established fact because the approximation of risk plays a pivotal role in the presence of uncertain inputs, such as expected returns, making risk quantification paramount.…”

“…Portfolio optimization was the process by which the optimal portfolio (distribution of assets) was selected according to some objective measure, with the caveat that the associated risks must also be minimized [12]. Portfolio optimization was concerned with maximizing the expected return from a series of investments and minimizing the associated risks, such as stock market volatility [13]. Instead, one must consider how assets affect the risk and return of the entire portfolio.…”
