Each model
designed to select an investment portfolio is based on different
assumptions for estimating the risk and the return. These
assumptions determine feasible solutions area and the front of
efficient portfolios. Therefore, the assumptions of Markowitz
model, capital assets pricing model and the linear
multi-objective model are discussed. A portfolio of investments
in different scenarios was determined by the last two models,
and it is showed that the portfolio of investment determined by
linear multi-objective model has higher return at lower risk.
These tests also evaluated the assumptions of the models. It
concludes that it is possible to gain a competitive advantage if
another point of view will be considered in the selection of the
investment portfolio.
Key words:
Multi-objective linear programming, investment portfolio,
