Risk parity has been considered a heuristic asset allocation method. In this paper, we show that, to the contrary, risk … parity is a special case of a mean-risk type of a portfolio optimization problem with log-regularization to constrain weights … unconstrained mean-risk portfolio and a risk parity (or risk budgeted in general) portfolio. We also demonstrate in a Bayesian …
