Abstract

Index tracking portfolio is a portfolio that tracks economic indicators or stock indexes. In this study, we propose an inflation rate tracing portfolio method that considers the portfolio turnover and the target return in the past inflation phase. The method is formulated as a quadratic programming problem, and the optimization algorithm is derived. We verify the advantages of the method using Japanese inflation rate data.
