Abstract
This paper considers an entropy model of portfolio selection problem with fuzzy random variables to future returns. Since standard mean-variance portfolio models suffer from some shortcomings, the entropy is introduced as a risk measure instead of variances to overcome the shortcomings. Furthermore, introducing the sum of entropy to each portfolio as well as the entropy of fuzzy random variables, the previous entropy-based fuzzy random portfolio selection problem is extended, the exact optimal portfolio is explicitly obtained using nonlinear programming such as Karush-Kuhn-Tucker condition.
