Abstract
How to manage the social security trust funds is a topic of wide interests both academically and professionally.In the setting of portfolio selection with social security funds investment, we propose a modified safety-first (MSF) rule with portfolio selection including risk-free saving. We first demonstrate under some mild assumptions that the solution to the MSF model for an individual investor can be expressed by explicitly analytical formula and the necessary and sufficient conditions for their existence are obtained. We then derive the safety-first efficient frontiers in both the space of expected return and insured return level and the space of standard deviation and expected return, with numerical examples illustrated. By comparing the results of the MSF model with those of the mean-variance (M-V) model, some novel insights into the differences between them are further gained.
