Application of a general risk management model to portfolio optimization problems with elliptical distributed returns for risk neutral and risk averse decision makers.
Kaynar, B.; Birbil, S.I.; Frenk, J.B.G. - Erasmus University Rotterdam, Econometric Institute - 2007
We discuss a class of risk measures for portfolio optimization with linear loss functions, where the random returns of financial instruments have a multivariate elliptical distribution. Under this setting we pay special attention to two risk measures, Value-at-Risk and Conditional-Value-at-Risk...

Risk measures and their applications in asset management
Birbil, S.I.; Frenk, J.B.G.; Kaynar, B.; Noyan, N. - Erasmus University Rotterdam, Econometric Institute - 2008
particular, we model the risk by using Value-at-Risk (VaR) and Conditional Value-at-Risk (CVaR). After reviewing the main … properties of VaR and CVaR, we present short proofs to some of the well-known results. Finally, we describe a computationally …
