Abstract

In recent years, new ideas for the robustification of the traditional Markowitz frontier have appeared in the literature. Based on one of these ideas — the so-called robust counterparts — we introduce the concept of the robustified efficient frontier.As mean– variance efficient portfolios are frequently used as risky assets for CPPI strategies, we investigate the behavior of such strategies under estimation risk. Based on a toy example, we explain the main idea how the concept of a robustified frontier can be used to improve the performance of CPPI strategies. For this purpose, we compare the theoretical performance of CPPI strategies based on the original and the robust efficient frontier.
