In this paper, we propose the test for the location of the tangency portfolio on the set of feasible portfolios when both the population and the sample covariance matrices of asset returns are singular. We derive the exact distribution of the test statistic under both the null and alternative...

This paper examines optimal portfolio selection using quantile-based risk measures such as Valueat-Risk (VaR) and Conditional Value-at-Risk (CVaR). We address the case of a singular covariance matrix of asset returns, which leads to an optimization problem with infinitely many solutions. An...
