Algorithmic design of a conditional value-at-risk optimization model based on implied volatility for multi-period portfolio adjustment

Abstract

Based on the definition of volatility and conditional value risk (CVaR), this paper introduces the implied volatility into CVaR model, and further analyzes the partial differential equation of stock portfolio optimization in the form of BS model. In the process of multi-stage investment, in order to reasonably control the investment risk of each stage, the CvaR model based on implied volatility is constructed by using the scenario tree method. With the data of 1166 trading days as the data, 4 stock assets as the data set of this study, the optimization model is applied to the calculation and analysis. The numerical simulation shows that the stock price fluctuation of the four multi-cycle stocks ranges from -23.45% to 41.97%, showing a clustering phenomenon. Among them, the volatility of stocks A and C is more obvious than that of stocks B and D, and the probability density tails of stocks are longer in the cycle, and they all show thick tail characteristics, indicating that the introduction of implied volatility of CVaR model makes the risk control of actual equity asset investment more reasonable.
