Abstract

In this paper we study the combination of risky assets in a portfolio in the Rank Dependent Expected Utility model to exhibit the respective influences of probabilistic risk aversion and decreasing marginal utility. We show that the two properties act differently: probabilistic risk avesion leads the decision maker to minimize the risk brought upon whereas decreasing marginal utility incite her to obtain the best compromise between return and risk.
