Abstract

Portfolio optimization is an activity for balancing return and risk. In this paper, we used mean-variance (M-V) portfolio models with buy-in threshold and cardinality constraints. This model can be formulated as a mixed integer nonlinear programming (MINLP) problem. To solve this constrained mean-variance portfolio optimization problem, we propose the use of a modified spiral optimization algorithm (SOA). Then, we use Bartholomew-Biggs and Kane’s data to validate our proposed algorithm. The results show that our proposed algorithm can be an efficient tool for solving this portfolio optimization problem.
