%0 Journal Article %T A Stochastic Programming Approach for Multi-Period Portfolio Optimization %A Narela Bajram %A Mehmet Can %J Southeast Europe Journal of Soft Computing %D 2012 %I %X An Asset-Liability Management model with a novel strategy for controlling risk of underfunding is presented in this paper. The basic model involves Multi-Period decisions (portfolio optimization) and deals with the usual uncertainty of investment returns and future liabilities. Therefore, is it well suited to a stochastic programming approach.We consider the problem of rebalancing policy to accomplish some investmentĄ¯s criteria. Transaction costs have also been a subject of concern in this paper. In particular, a large amount of transactions usually make asset price move in an unfavorable direction. Therefore, the first problem neglects transactions cost while the second does not. %K stochastic linear programming (SLP) %K portfolio optimizations %K asset- liability management (ALM %K %K scenario trees %U http://www.scjournal.com.ba/index.php/scjournal/article/view/30
