Abstract
While the semivariance (lower partial moment degree 2) has been variously described as being more in line with investors’ attitude towards risk, implementation in a forecasting portfolio management role has been hampered by computational problems. The original formulation by Markowitz (1959) requires a laborious iterative process because the cosemivariance matrix is endogenous and a closed form solution does not exist. There have been attempts...
