Tiivistelmä: | Alexander and Baptista [in: Economic implications of using a mean-value-at-risk (VaR) model for portfolio selection: A comparison with mean–variance analysis, published in: Journal of Economic Dynamics and Control (2002) vol. 26: p. 1159-93] develop the concept of mean-VaR efficiency for portfolios, demonstrating its very close connection with mean-variance efficiency. In particular, they identify the minimum VaR portfolio as a special type of mean-variance efficient portfolio. This study's empirical analysis finds that, for commonly used VaR breach probabilities, minimum VaR portfolios yield ex-post returns conforming well with the specified VaR breach probabilities and with return/risk expectations. These results provide a considerable extension of evidence supporting the empirical validity and tractability of the mean-VaR efficiency concept. |
