Springer Uncertain Portfolio Optimization (Uncertainty and Operations Research)

This book provides a new modeling approach for portfolio optimization problems involving a lack of sufficient historical data. The content mainly reflects the author’s extensive work on uncertainty portfolio optimization in recent years. Considering security returns as different variables, the book presents a series of portfolio optimization models in the framework of credibility theory, uncertainty theory and chance theory, respectively. As such, it offers readers a comprehensive and up-to-date guide to uncertain portfolio optimization models.
