Strategic portfolios are asset combinations designed to achieve investor objectives. A unique feature of these investments is that portfolios must be rebalanced periodically to maintain the initially established structure. This paper introduces a methodology to estimate the probability of not...

In this paper, we focus on the estimation of a high-dimensional precision matrix. We propose a simple improvement of the graphical lasso framework (glasso) that is able to attain better statistical performance without sacrificing too much the computational cost. The proposed improvement is based...

In this paper we introduce a new multivariate stochastic order that compares random vectors in a direction which is determined by a unit vector, generalizing previous upper and lower orthant order. The main properties of this new order, together with its relationships with other multivariate...

We propose a new multivariate order based on a concept that we will call extremality". Given a unit vector, the extremality allows to measure the "farness" of a point with respect to a data cloud or to a distribution in the vector direction. We establish the most relevant properties of this...
