Asset-liability Optimization for Pension Fund Management

  • Conference paper
Operations Research Proceedings 1999

Part of the book series: Operations Research Proceedings 1999 ((ORP,volume 1999))

Summary

We describe the problem of optimal asset allocation for a pension fund as a stochastic dynamic programming problem. We discuss the model generation, the formulation of the objective and solution methods. The original problem is nonconvex, but convex approximations can be found.
