Abstract: This article uses a heuristic algorithm of cross entropy to propose a solution for the optimization of portfolios with weight constraints in each of its assets. The optimal values of the parameters in the methodology are verified and further a comparison between the obtained solutions and the optimal found by numerical methods is provided, specifically generalized gradient reduced method is used to optimize the expected utility of the investor in each of the provided portfolios. The cross entropy methodology was originally used in thermodynamics and has slowly seeped into other disciplines. This article shows how this methodology may be applied in finance, specifically in optimizing investment portfolios
