This paper studies properties of an estimator of mean–variance portfolio weights in a market model with multiple risky assets and a riskless asset. Theoretical formulas for the mean square error are derived in the case when asset excess returns are multivariate normally distributed and...

We extend the Black-Litterman framework beyond normality to general elliptical distributions of investor's views and asset returns and portfolio risk measured by CVaR. Unlike existing solutions, cf. Xiao and Valdez [Quant. Finan. 2015, 15:3, 509-519], the choice of distributions, with the first...

The Black-Litterman methodology of portfolio optimization, developed at the turn of the 1990s, combines statistical information on asset returns with investor's views within the Markowitz mean-variance framework. The main assumption underlying the Black-Litterman model is that asset returns and...

This paper studies properties of an estimator of mean-variance portfolio weights in a market model with multiple risky assets and a riskless asset. Theoretical formulas for the mean square error are derived in the case when asset excess returns are multivariate normally distributed and serially...
