It is well known that under certain assumptions the strategy of an investor maximizing his expected utility coincides with the mean-variance optimal strategy. In this paper we show that the two strategies are not equal in general and find the connection between a utility maximizing and a...

This paper addresses a multi-period portfolio selection problem when the number of assets in the financial market is large. Using an exponential utility function, the optimal solution is shown to be a function of the inverse of the covariance matrix of asset returns. Nonetheless, when the number...

This paper describes one proposition about dynamic Markowitz portfolio selection in an open economy. Here it is proved that, assuming that two countries in an open economy share the same risk absolute aversion coefficient and the same information set with some conditions, the portfolio each...

This paper investigates the questions of dynamic portfolio selection and intertemporal hedging within a Markovian regime-switching framework. The investment opportunity set is spanned by a well-diversified home-market portfolio and the risk-free asset. Our results highlight the economic...
