1 General approach to the optimal portfolio risk management Zinoviy Landsman, University of Haifa Joint talk with Udi Makov and Tomer Shushi This presentation has been prepared for the Actuaries Institute 05 ASTIN and AFIR/ERM Colloquium. The Institute Council wishes it to be understood that opinions put forward herein are not necessarily those of the Institute and the Council is not responsible for those opinions.
2 Outline. Mean-variance risk measure. Generalization based on Sharpe ratio 3. Main results on optimal portfolio selection (OPS) 4.Important examples: generalized Sharpe ratio and classical Sharpe ratio and OPS 5.Combination of linear and function of square root of quadratic functional 6. Translation-invariant and positive-homogeneous risk measures and OPS 7. Tail mean-variance principle and OPS
3 -The success of classical MV optimal portfolio theory is mostly because the model reduces to QP, which is quite convenient for the technical realization and for the case when short selling is possible, even provides the analytic solution (Merton (97)) - We suggest the generalization of MV-model which reduces to more complicated CFP concave fractional programming 3
4 Return on the portfolio R R= xr + xr + + xr Mean-Variance approach n n E( R) λvar( R) max n i= x i = MV ( R) = E( R) + λvar( R) inf 4
5 Another approach to OPS referenced to Sharpe Rf ER ( ) R f S = Var( R) risk free rate max How to combine these two approaches and generalize maximally? We suggest the following functional per ( ( ) f =t max v( Var( R)) 5
6 t( x) strictly increased, p( x) concave t'( x), p'( x) 0 6
7 Important examples Generalized Sharpe ratio t( x) = x, p( x) = x R, v( x) = x β, β / f ER ( ) R f f= ( Var ( R β )) max β = / classical Sharpe ratio Another important functional tx ( ) = log x, px ( ) = exp( x), vx ( ) = exp( λsx ( )), λ > 0 7
8 f = E( R) λs( Var( R)) max sx ( ) defined on [0, ) function, differentiable and positive on (0, ) Landsman and Makov (03) 8
9 Important examples f = E( R) λ( Var( R)), β / β = classical Mean Variance principle Standard deviation premium principle f = E( R) λ Var( R), Tail mean-variance premium principle f = E R + Var R + Var R ( ) α ( ) α ( ), β 9

17 Let s ( x ) = s '( x ) > 0, x (0, ) Theorem. If equation 0 ws ( f + b w ) = λ has the positive solution w* this solution is unique and the problem T f( x) = µ x+ λs( x Σx) inf T Bx=c 7
