Abstract

En este trabajo se presenta la evidencia empírica de incorporar el efecto de la asimetría del rendimineto de los activos en el modelo de portafolio para la selección de los activos y su participación en la integración un portafolio de inversión. Se realiza la revisión teórica de la metodología utilizada y se presenta el contraste de los resultados del modelo de Markowitz que utiliza únicamente la media y la varianza media-varianza y el modelo que incorpora la asimetría. La metodología que se utiliza plantea un problema de optimización multiobjetivo, que selecciona el portafolio de inversión que minimiza la función multiobjetivo, con lo cual se logra la optimización simultánea de los objetivos particulares de media, varianza y asimetría. Los resultados muestran que es posible disminuir la probabilidad de rendimientos negativos y pérdidas en el caso de seleccionar el portafolio con mayor asimetría positiva. La modelo valida todas las posibilidades de selección del nivel de aversión al riesgo, rendimiento y asimetría, el enfoque que se presenta tiene la ventaja de ser flexible y la selección de los activos se expresa de forma matemática en un espacio definido por la varianza, la expectativa de rendimiento y su asimetría. El trabajo presenta evidencia empírica con activos de la Bolsa Mexicana de Valores./ This paper shows the empirical evidence of the effect of asymmetry of return assets in the portfolio selection and integrates their participation in an investment portfolio. The theoretical review of the methodology is performed and contrasts a results Markowitz model that uses only the mean and variance and mean-variance model incorporating asymmetry effect. The methodology propose a problem of multi-objective optimization, which selects the investment portfolio that minimizes the multi-objective function, whereby the simultaneous optimization of the specific aims of mean, variance and skewness is achieved. The results show that it is possible to decrease the probability of negative returns and losses in the case of selecting the portfolio more positively skewed. The model validates all selection options level of risk aversion, performance or asymmetry, the approach presented has the advantage of being flexible and selection of assets is expressed mathematically in a space defined by the variance, expected return and asymmetry. The paper presents empirical evidence of the Mexican stock exchange assets
