In this contribution we tackle the issue of portfolio management combining benchmarking and risk control. We propose a dynamic tracking error problem and we consider the problem of monitoring at discrete points the shortfalls of the portfolio below a set of given reference levels of wealth.We formulate and solve the resulting dynamic optimization problem using stochastic programming. The proposed model allows for a great flexibility in the combination of the tracking goal and the downside risk protection. We provide the results of out-of-sample simulation experiments, on real data, for different portfolio configurations and different market conditions.

Abstract

In this contribution we tackle the issue of portfolio management combining benchmarking and risk control. We propose a dynamic tracking error problem and we consider the problem of monitoring at discrete points the shortfalls of the portfolio below a set of given reference levels of wealth.We formulate and solve the resulting dynamic optimization problem using stochastic programming. The proposed model allows for a great flexibility in the combination of the tracking goal and the downside risk protection. We provide the results of out-of-sample simulation experiments, on real data, for different portfolio configurations and different market conditions.
