Abstract

A multi-stage model is proposed for the general problem of allocating assets to broad investment categories. The framework encompasses a wide variety of financial planning problems. Efficient solution algorithms are described for solving the resulting large-scale optimization problems.

This research was supported in part by Towers Perrin and by the U.S. NSF (CCR-9102660).
