Portfolio separation properties of the skew-elliptical distributions, with generalizations

  • Framstad, N.C.

Abstract

The two-fund separation property of the elliptical distributions is extended to the skew-elliptical case by adding a number of funds equaling the rank of the skewness matrix. The singular extended skew-elliptical distributions are covered, as is a further generalization to the case where the set conditioned upon is not an orthant.
