In the present work, the optimal portfolio minimizing the investment risk with cost is discussed analytically, where this objective function is constructed in terms of two negative aspects of investment, the risk and cost. We note the mathematical similarity between the Hamiltonian in the mean-variance model and the Ha…

This paper studies optimal investment from the point of view of an investor with longevity-linked liabilities. The relevant optimization problems rarely are analytically tractable, but we are able to show numerically that liability driven investment can significantly outperform common strategies that do not take the li…

We present analytical investigations of a multiplicative stochastic process that models a simple investor dynamics in a random environment. The dynamics of the investor's budget, x(t)x(t), depends on the stochasticity of the return on investment, r(t)r(t), for which different model assumptions are discussed. The fat-tail d…

In this paper, we use replica analysis to investigate the influence of correlation among the return rates of assets on the solution of the portfolio optimization problem. We consider the behavior of the optimal solution for the case where the return rate is described with a single-factor model and compare the findings …

result Existence of crowding-out effect due to investment herding.

Graph database outperforms in filtering ESG stocks efficiently.

problem Efficiently filtering ESG stocks from large lists of equities.
method Compared SQL, No-SQL, and graph databases; used Python for database interactions; collected data from stock price and financial news.
result Graph database is more efficient for ESG stock filtering.

The investment economy is a main characteristic of prosperous society. The investment portfolio management is a main financial problem, which has to be solved by the investment, commercial and central banks with the application of modern portfolio theory in the investment economy.

Researchers analyze optimal investment strategies for a collectivised pension fund with identical investors.

problem Optimizing investment strategies for a collectivised pension fund with identical investors.
method Analytical computation of optimal investment-consumption strategies for a fund of n identical investors with Epstein-Zin preferences.
result Constant consumption strategy is suboptimal for infinite collectives, suggesting annuities and defined benefit investments are suboptimal.

Study analyzes FIT schemes under market and regulatory uncertainty.

problem Tackles uncertainty in feed-in tariffs and their impact on investment thresholds.
method Uses semi-analytical real options framework to model and compare FIT schemes.
result Increasing regulatory uncertainty lowers investment thresholds for FIT schemes.

problem Optimal investment strategy and consumption process depend on wealth and future income balance.
method Proposed a new mean-variance-utility framework with time and state-dependent risk aversion, solved using game theory.
result Equilibrium investment and consumption policies derived, aligning with investor behavior.

We establish explicit socially optimal rules for an irreversible investment deci- sion with time-to-build and uncertainty. Assuming a price sensitive demand function with a random intercept, we provide comparative statics and economic interpreta- tions for three models of demand (arithmetic Brownian, geometric Brownian…

Modern portfolio theory(MPT) addresses the problem of determining the optimum allocation of investment resources among a set of candidate assets. In the original mean-variance approach of Markowitz, volatility is taken as a proxy for risk, conflating uncertainty with risk. There have been many subsequent attempts to al…
