The paper examines the performance of four multivariate volatility models, namely CCC, VARMA-GARCH, DCC and BEKK, for the crude oil spot and futures returns of two major benchmark international crude oil markets, Brent and WTI, to calculate optimal portfolio weights and optimal hedge ratios, and...

A well-known result in portfolio optimisation states that as the number of assets in a portfolio grows, the variance of portfolio return approaches the average covariance between the included assets. I argue that this result should not be read as a justification to emphasise forecasting...

We propose a new approach that allows for incorporating qualitative views, such as ordering information, into estimates of future asset returns within the Black-Litterman model. We develop a mathematical framework and numerical computation methods for this setting. We find importance sampling to...

DeMiguel, Garlappi, and Uppal (2009) conducted a highly influential study where they demonstrated that none of the optimized portfolios consistently outperformed the naive diversification. This result triggered a heated debate within the academic community on whether portfolio optimization adds...

This paper presents the theoretical and applicative model elaborated by Harry Markowitz on the determination of the structure of the efficient securities portfolio. In this sense, in order to determine the structure of the efficient Markowitz portfolio (PE), a Lagrange function is built and...

The Bayes-Stein model provides a framework for remedying parameter uncertainty in the Markowitz mean-variance portfolio optimization. The classical version, however, suffers from estimation errors of model components and fails to consistently outperform the naive 1/N asset allocation rule. We...
