Making Leveraged Exchange-Traded Funds Work for your Portfolio

We examine strategically incorporating broad stock market leveraged exchange-traded funds (LETFs) into investment portfolios. We demonstrate that easily understandable and implementable strategies can enhance the risk-return profile of a portfolio containing LETFs. Our analysis shows that seemingly

A parsimonious neural network approach to solve portfolio optimization problems without using dynamic programming

We present a parsimonious neural network approach, which does not rely on dynamic programming techniques, to solve dynamic portfolio optimization problems subject to multiple investment constraints. The number of parameters of the (potentially deep) neural network remains independent of the number o

Neural Network Approach to Portfolio Optimization with Leverage Constraints:a Case Study on High Inflation Investment

Motivated by the current global high inflation scenario, we aim to discover a dynamic multi-period allocation strategy to optimally outperform a passive benchmark while adhering to a bounded leverage limit. To this end, we formulate an optimal control problem to outperform a benchmark portfolio thro

Monte-Carlo Option Pricing in Quantum Parallel

Financial derivative pricing is a significant challenge in finance, involving the valuation of instruments like options based on underlying assets. While some cases have simple solutions, many require complex classical computational methods like Monte Carlo simulations and numerical techniques. Howe
