Portfolio choice is usually modelled by von Neumann-Morgenstern utility. Risk-value models are more general and permit … the derivation of risk-value efficient frontiers. A behaviorally based risk measure with an endogenous or exogenous … benchmark is used to derive efficient portfolios and to analyse the implied equilibrium asset pricing. In risk-value models a …
