In this paper we propose a quasi-shrinkage approach for minimum-variance portfolios which does not use a quadratic loss function to derive the optimal shrinkage intensity. We develop two alternative objective functions for linear shrinkage. The first targets the reduction of portfolio variance....

We study an optimal liquidation problem with multiplicative price impact in which the trend of the asset's price is an unobservable Bernoulli random variable. The investor aims at selling over an infinite time-horizon a fixed amount of assets in order to maximize a net expected profit...

Protecting portfolio against extreme losses is a fundamentally difficult task since past experience provides a poor guidance for the future. This paper focuses on a robust approach to the portfolio insurance, which does not require historical calibration, and therefore avoids the hazards of data...
