Enhanced Indexation is the problem of selecting a portfolio that should produce excess return with respect to a given benchmark index. In this work we propose a linear bi-objective optimization approach to Enhanced Indexation that maximizes average excess return and minimizes underperformance...

Risk Parity (RP), also called equally weighted risk contribution, is a recent approach to risk diversification for portfolio selection. RP is based on the principle that the fractions of the capital invested in each asset should be chosen so as to make the total risk contributions of all assets...

A recent popular approach to portfolio selection aims at diversifying risk by looking for the so called Risk Parity portfolios. These are defined by the condition that the risk contributions of all assets to the global risk of the portfolio are equal. The Risk Parity approach has been originally...

In this paper we propose an extensive empirical analysis on three different categories of portfolio selection models, each focused on different objectives: minimization of risk, maximization of capital diversification, and uniform distribution of risk allocation. This latter approach, also...
