Model for Constructing an Options Portfolio with a Certain Payoff Function


Abstract in English

The portfolio optimization problem is a basic problem of financial analysis. In the study, an optimization model for constructing an options portfolio with a certain payoff function has been proposed. The model is formulated as an integer linear programming problem and includes an objective payoff function and a system of constraints. In order to demonstrate the performance of the proposed model, we have constructed the portfolio on the European call and put options of Taiwan Futures Exchange. The optimum solution was obtained using the MATLAB software. Our approach is quite general and has the potential to design options portfolios on financial markets.
