Abstract
In the past, investors used their own or others’ experiences to achieve their goals. With the development of financial management, investors’ choices became more scientific. They could select the optimal choice by using different models and combining the results with their experiences. In portfolio optimization, the main issue is the optimal selection of the assets and securities that can be provided with a certain amount of capital. In the present study, the problem of optimization, i.e., maximizing stock portfolio returns and minimizing risk, has been studied. Therefore, this study discussed comprehensive modeling for the optimal selection of stock portfolios using multi-criteria decision-making methods in companies listed on the Tehran Stock Exchange. A sample of 79 companies listed on the Tehran Stock Exchange was used to conduct this research. After simulating the data and programming them with MATLAB software, the cumulative data analysis model was performed, and 24 companies were selected. This research data were collected from the financial statements of companies listed on the Tehran Stock Exchange in 2020. The primary purpose of this study was a comprehensive modeling for the optimal selection of stock portfolios using multi-criteria decision-making methods in companies listed on the Tehran Stock Exchange. The index in the Tehran Stock Exchange can be used to provide a comprehensive and optimal model for the stock portfolio; different multi-index decision-making methods (TOPSIS method), the taxonomy method (Taxonomy), ARAS method, VIKOR method, The COPRAS method and the WASPAS method can all identify the optimal stock portfolio and the best stock portfolio for the highest return.

Abstract
Choosing proper projects has a great impact on organizational success. Firms have various factors for choosing projects based on their different objectives and strategies. The problem of optimization of projects’ risks and returns is among the most prevalent issues in project portfolio selection. In order to optimize and select proper projects, the amount of projects’ expected risks and returns must be evaluated correctly. Determining the relevant distribution is very important in achieving these expectations. In this research, various types of practical distributions were examined, and considering expected and realized risks, the effects of choosing the different distribution on estimation of risks on construction projects were studied.

Abstract
The Conditional Value-at-Risk (CVaR) is a coherent measure that evaluates the risk for different investing scenarios. On the other hand, since the extreme value distribution has been revealed to furnish better financial and economical data adjustment in contrast to the well-known normal distribution, we here employ this distribution in investigating explicit formulas for the two common risk measures, i.e., VaR and CVaR, to have better tools in risk management. The formulas are then employed under the generalized autoregressive conditional heteroskedasticity (GARCH) model for risk management as our main contribution. To confirm the theoretical discussions of this work, the daily returns of several stocks are considered and worked out. The simulation results uphold the superiority of our findings.

Value at Risk Estimation Using the GARCH-EVT Approach with Optimal Tail Selection. MATHEMATICS 2020. [DOI: 10.3390/math8010114] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Indexed: 11/16/2022]
Abstract
A conditional Extreme Value Theory (GARCH-EVT) approach is a two-stage hybrid method that combines a Generalized Autoregressive Conditional Heteroskedasticity (GARCH) filter with the Extreme Value Theory (EVT). The approach requires pre-specification of a threshold separating distribution tails from its middle part. The appropriate choice of a threshold level is a demanding task. In this paper we use four different optimal tail selection algorithms, i.e., the path stability method, the automated Eye-Ball method, the minimization of asymptotic mean squared error method and the distance metric method with a mean absolute penalty function, to estimate out-of-sample Value at Risk (VaR) forecasts and compare them to the fixed threshold approach. Unlike other studies, we update the optimal fraction of the tail for each rolling window of the returns. The research objective is to verify to what extent optimization procedures can improve VaR estimates compared to the fixed threshold approach. Results are presented for a long and a short position applying 10 world stock indices in the period from 2000 to June 2019. Although each approach generates different threshold levels, the GARCH-EVT model produces similar Value at Risk estimates. Therefore, no improvement of VaR accuracy may be observed relative to the conservative approach taking the 95th quantile of returns as a threshold.
