Abstract

Nowadays, the selection and management of the optimal portfolio are the most primary fields of financial decision-making. Thereby, selecting a portfolio capable of providing the highest efficiency and, at the same time, the lowest investment risk has been turned into one of the most critical concerns among financial activists. However, in this selection, the two factors above are not the only determining ones. Various factors are affecting financial markets' behavior under different possible scenarios, which should be identified. In this paper, we examine the high sensitivity of the Iranian capital market to the exchange rate fluctuations in the different scenarios due to the lack of a unified view of the value of that rate among experts as one of the mentioned factors and obtain its value using Dempster–Shafer theory (DST). Then, a portfolio selection model that prefers stocks with higher ranks is proposed. Representative results of the real-life case study reveal that the submitted approach is productive and practically applicable.
基于Dempster-Shafer理论的不确定投资组合优化
当前,最优投资组合的选择和管理是财务决策的最主要领域。因此,选择一种能够提供最高效率、同时投资风险最低的投资组合,已成为金融活跃人士最关心的问题之一。然而,在这个选择中,上述两个因素并不是唯一的决定因素。在不同可能的情况下,各种因素影响着金融市场的行为,这些因素应该被识别出来。在本文中,我们研究了伊朗资本市场在不同情景下对汇率波动的高度敏感性,因为专家们对该汇率的价值缺乏统一的看法,作为上述因素之一,并使用Dempster-Shafer理论(DST)获得其价值。在此基础上,提出了偏好高阶股票的投资组合选择模型。实际案例研究的代表性结果表明,所提出的方法是有效的和实际适用的。
