On measuring the sensitivity of the optimal portfolio allocation

Abstract

In this paper we consider the sensitivity problem connected with portfolio optimization results when different measures of risk such as portfolio rates of return standard deviation, portfolio VaR, CVaR are minimized. Conditioning the data (represented by spectral condition index of the rates of return correlation matrix) plays, as it is shown, a crucial role in describing the properties of the models. We report on the research conducted for 13 largest firms on Warsaw Stock Exchange.
