We investigate a discrete-time mean-risk portfolio selection problem, where risk is measured by the conditional value-at-risk (CVaR). By embedding this time-inconsistent problem into a family of expected utility maximization problems with a piecewise linear utility function, we solve the problem...

We introduce the concept of forward rank-dependent performance criteria, extending the original notion to forward criteria that incorporate probability distortions. A fundamental challenge is how to reconcile the time-consistent nature of forward performance criteria with the time-inconsistency...
