This paper constructs an alternative investment strategy to portfolio optimization model in the framework of the Mean … normally distributed. The traditional Mean–Variance optimization approach has only one objective, which fails to capture the … problem. The proposed optimization model which is an optimal portfolio strategy is produced for investors of various risk …
