THE PORTFOLIO DESIGNER:A basic tool to reduce the markets complexity and make a short list of assets to invest. • TARGET USERS: • Private Investors • Brokerage AXE ,AXEΠΕΥ, ΑΕΠΕΥ • BANKS • FINANCIAL ORGANIZATIONS
MAIN OBJECTIVES • To result in to a short list and optimal allocation of assets to invest • To Design Hedging with Derivatives
BASIC FUNCTIONALITIES • Optimal Portfolio Selection • Hedge Designer • Historic Simulation
HUNAM-AND-COMPUTER INTERACTION PRINCIPLES OF QUALITY IN THE DESIGN OF THIS SOFTWARE • As few as possible menus and input-and out-put forms • As simple and friendly as possible, interface • As much as possible hidden automation • We keep it intelligent and as simple and self-evident as possible • Artificial Intelligence methods
INTERNAL STRUCTURE QUALITY OF THE PROGRAM • Full use of the most modern design and programming technology • Optimal internal structured programming for speed and real-time efficiency • Effective both on recent and less recent hardware • Full communication with Microsoft Office and other programs
MARKOVITZ THEORY OF PORTFOLIO’S RISK AND PROFIT • Classification comparison and preference of Portfolios based on risk and profit • Profit measures:Average Rate of Return • Risk measures: • Volatility • Elasticity • Combinations
PORTFOLIOS OF MAXIMUM PROBABILITY OF PROFIT • The cut-off-rate technique • The Sharp ratio of profit and risk • The Treynor ratio of profit and risk • Find the portfolio that has the maximum probability to result to a profit above a preset level
CONTSTRAINTS ON THE DESIGN OF PORTFOLIO BY THE USERS • Constraints on the number of assets • Constraints through short listing based on fundamentals • Constraints through short list based on news Analysis • Constraints through arbitrary short lists • Constraints by indexes
DEFENSIVE , OFFENSIVE AND NEUTRAL PORTFOLIOS • The elasticity of the portfolio relative to the general index • Less than 1: Defensive • More than 1: Offensive • Negative : Opposite to the Market • Positive: Parallel to the Market
NEUTRAL PORTFOLIOS DESIGNER • Find the Portfolio of zero elasticity relative to the market
HEDGING A PORTFOLIO WITH DERIVATIVES:HEDGING DESIGNER FOR HEDGE FUNDS • After choosing the elasticity, estimation of the required futures or options to hedge the portfolio (Delta neutral hedging )
RISK-AND-PROFIT PORTFOLIO FREE DESIGNER • The dependence and changes of risk and profit when the percentages change (for sub optimal design experimentation) • A matrix with arrows for sensitivity analysis experimentation
HISTORICAL PORTFOLIO SIMULATOR • Historical Simulator for testing the Portfolio in the past. • User defined transaction costs and Bid-Ask spreads costs
CRYSTALL-CLEAR PRINT OUTS OF ALL THE TABLES AND IMAGES • Print outs of all the out put tables of the program • The print outs admit export in Excel for user defined modifications
