An Efficient Portfolio with Several Objectives and Varying Parameters

Abstract

We investigate a portfolio selection model with several objective functions, whose coefficients are uncertain and vary between some bounds. A preferable efficient portfolio of the model is obtained, which provides the range within which the portfolio return and the moments would vary. An optimal portfolio for the forecasted returns of stocks is found with actual market data from the Bombay Stock Exchange, India.
