This paper proposes a novel methodology to construct optimal portfolios that incorporates the occurrence of systemic events. Investors maximize a modified Sharpe ratio conditional on a systemic event. We solve the portfolio allocation problem analytically under the absence of short-selling...

The inquiries to return predictability are traditionally limited to the first two moments, mean and volatility. Analogously, literature on portfolio selection also stems from a moment-based analysis with up to the fourth moment being considered. This paper develops a distribution-based framework...

This paper presents a framework for portfolio optimization that makes three departures from the traditional mean-variance approach. First, we optimize the portfolio over multiple horizons, reflecting the belief that long-term investors care about intertemporal gains and losses, as well as...

This paper extends the socially responsible multiobjective problem to (i) estimating optimal portfolios via reward/risk maximization, (ii) including dependence structure between asset returns using vine copulas, and (iii) incorporating enhanced indexation utilizing cumulative zero-order...

Among professionals and academics alike, it is well known that active portfolio management is unable to provide additional risk-adjusted returns relative to their benchmarks. For this reason, passive wealth management has emerged in recent decades to offer returns close to benchmarks at a lower...

In this article, the authors propose an order flow simulator for meta orders such as those originating from the trading activity of buy-side firms. The simulator is designed with three key goals in mind. First, it should be simple to use and integrate into different applications. Second, it must...

Using a modified DCC-MIDAS specification that allows the long-term correlation component to be a function of multiple explanatory variables, we show that the stock-bond correlation in the US, the UK, Germany, France, and Italy is mainly driven by inflation and interest rate expectations as well...

We propose and implement a procedure to optimally hedge climate change risk. First, we construct climate risk indices through textual analysis of newspapers. Second, we present a new approach to compute factor mimicking portfolios to build climate risk hedge portfolios. The new mimicking...
