We propose a new framework for dynamic capital allocation with time-varying capital constraints that incorporates reallocation costs.

The solution compromises between static allocation and expected future risk structure and strikes a balance between addressing current risk profiles and adjustment costs. It successfully provides an effective allocation tool while preserving stability.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":54682,"journal":{"name":"Operations Research Letters","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2024-04-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140555651","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
