Abstract

The purpose of this research is the investigation of a portfolio problem in an uncertain environment. Given possible investments with random performance depending on uncertain environmental settings the objective is to establish a methodology for construction of a portfolio which is non-dominated with respect to second order stochastic dominance and whose return distribution is preferable for a least risk decision maker.
