In this paper we characterise the propensity of big capital investments to systematically deliver poor outcomes as "fragility," a notion suggested by Nassim Taleb. A thing or system that is easily harmed by randomness is fragile. We argue that, contrary to their appearance, big capital investments break easily - i.e. d…

SVAT reduces investment risks by making stock models sensitive to adversarial perturbations.

problem Risk control in stock recommendation models is insufficient, leading to high investment losses.
method SVAT combines adversarial learning and variational perturbation generation to enhance risk awareness.
result SVAT reduces investment risks by more than 30% compared to state-of-the-art baselines.

We show that the mutual fund theorems of Merton (1971) extend to the problem of optimal investment to minimize the probability of lifetime ruin. We obtain two such theorems by considering a financial market both with and without a riskless asset for random consumption. The striking result is that we obtain two-fund the…

Negative screening is one method to avoid interactions with inappropriate entities. For example, financial institutions keep investment exclusion lists of inappropriate firms that have environmental, social, and government (ESG) problems. They create their investment exclusion lists by gathering information from variou…

method We leverage the specific mathematical structure of DPO to enable scalable Shapley value computation for LLMs.
result We demonstrate that Shapley value computation for LLMs trained with DPO is significantly simplified.

This paper investigates two mechanisms of financial contagion that are, firstly, the correlated exposure of banks to the same source of risk, and secondly the direct exposure of banks in the interbank market. It will consider a random network of banks which are connected through the inter-bank market and will discuss t…
