Fixed income portfolio optimisation: Interest rates, credit, and the efficient frontier

Richard J. Martin

Papers from arXiv.org

Abstract: Fixed income has received far less attention than equity portfolio optimisation since Markowitz' original work of 1952, partly as a result of the need to model rates and credit risk. We argue that the shape of the efficient frontier is mainly controlled by linear constraints, with the standard deviation relatively unimportant, and propose a two-factor model for its time evolution.
