Uncertain Portfolio Selection with Borrowing Constraint and Background Risk

Abstract

Due to the complexity of financial markets, there exist situations where security returns and background factor returns are available mainly based on experts’ subjective beliefs, such as in the case of lack of historical data. To deal with such indeterminate quantities, uncertain variables are introduced. Based on uncertainty theory, this paper discusses the distribution function of the optimal portfolio return. Two types of new uncertain programming models, namely, the chance-mean model and the measure-mean model, are proposed to make an optimal portfolio selection decision in an uncertain environment. It is proved that there exists an equivalent relation between the chance-mean model and a deterministic linear programming model, which leads to an approach to obtain the optimal solutions of the proposed models. Finally, some numerical examples are illustrated to show the modelling ideas and the effectiveness of the models.

“…However, profitability is the most important that affecting investment decision, followed by growth and trading volume (Lee, Huang, Chang, & Cheng, 2011). Dissimilarity to study through Lv, Zhang, Peng, & Ralescu (2020) is confirmed financial performance by considering background risk and asset liquidity does not effectively affect the investments made by investors in financial securities.…”

A New Portfolio Optimization Model Under Tracking-Error Constraint with Linear Uncertainty Distributions

“…In order to reflect different attitudes toward risk in one portfolio investment, Huang and Di [ 12 ] apply mental accounts to uncertain optimization model. Besides, there are uncertain portfolio optimization models considering the bankruptcy constraint [ 18 ], the borrowing constraint [ 24 ] and the entropy constraint [ 6 ]. Yet so far, no paper studies the EIT problem based on uncertainty theory.…”
