Abstract

In this paper, we provide the implications of using the performance ratio being defined by the expected shortfall-well known as RAROC-in static portfolio optimization, by giving the proof of the relevant results. We also use RAROC as a primary function in the AUGMECON algorithm, providing the main scheme of such an application on data from Athens Stock Exchange. The use of RAROC in AUGMECON as a primary function is also faced as an optimization problem under a general nonconvex optimization framework.
