Abstract This paper introduces optimal expected utility (OEU) risk measures, investigates their main properties and puts them in perspective to alternative risk measures and notions of certainty equivalents. By taking the investor’s point of view, OEU maximizes the sum of capital available...

This paper introduces optimal expected utility (OEU) risk measures, investigates their main properties and puts them in perspective to alternative risk measures and notions of certainty equivalents. Taking the investor's point of view, OEU maximizes the sum of capital available today and the...

The purpose of this article is to evaluate optimal expected utility risk measures (OEU) in a risk- constrained portfolio optimization context where the expected portfolio return is maximized. We compare the portfolio optimization with OEU constraint to a portfolio selection model using value at...

In this paper, we leverage on real-world stock market data including the relatively calm period between 2012 and 2020, the COVID-19 shock in early 2020 and the recovery during its aftermath, to investigate asset allocation strategies with risk constraints defined in terms of optimal expected...
