[PDF][PDF] Optimization of conditional value-at-risk

RT Rockafellar, S Uryasev - Journal of risk, 2000 - Citeseer
This paper introduces a new approach to optimizing a portfolio so as to reduce the risk of
high losses. Value-at-Risk (VaR) has a role in the approach, but the emphasis is on …

Conditional value-at-risk for general loss distributions

RT Rockafellar, S Uryasev - Journal of banking & finance, 2002 - Elsevier
… The minimization in the expanded problem (47) is converted then into the minimization of
g(x) over x∈X, the ζ i 's and all the new η ik 's, with the constraints F α i (x,ζ i )⩽ω i being …

Asset/liability management for pension funds using CVaR constraints

…, H Edwin Romeijn, S Uryasev - The Journal of Risk …, 2001 - emerald.com
This article studies formal optimal decision approaches for a multi‐period asset/liability
management model for a pension fund. The authors use Conditional Value‐at‐Risk (CVaR) as a …
