A New Approach in Multi-Objective Portfolio Optimization using Value-at-Risk based Risk Measure
Mean-risk models have been widely used in solving portfolio selection problems in the last years.Since the mean-variance theory of Markowitz,an enormous amount of papers have been published extending or modifying the basic model in several directions like the simplification of the type and amount of input data,the introduction of alternative measures of risk,the incorporation of additional criteria or constraints.Recently,risk measures concerned with the left tails of distributions that evaluate the extremely unfavourable outcomes are used.The most used risk measure for such.purposes is Value-at-Risk (VaR).In this paper we concentrate on the second direction of incorporating of a new risk measure in portfolio modeling.We define a new risk measure,which-take into consideration the values exceeding a certain threshold in the extreme tail of the loss distribution,called Limited Value-at-Risk (LVaR).We study the properties of this risk measure.We build a new model for portfolio selection,named mean-LVaR model,in which risk is evaluated using LVaR risk measure.We study the properties of the new mean-risk model and compare it with the classical mean-VaR model.We derive the analytical form of LVaR risk measure in the case of normal distribution.We provide computational results and analyze the implications of using the mean-LVaR risk model in portfolio optimization problem.
