Abstract:
In this talk, we introduce a quantitative framework for the portfolio management of sustainable investing, which adds non-financial objectives to the classical portfolio theory. We derive a new representation theorem to characterize the distribution of induced order statistics, under very general bivariate distributions of sustainability measures and asset returns. We also develop a new methodology to quantify the implicit information from random constraints in portfolio optimization. These results lead to sustainable portfolios with higher and more robust risk-adjusted returns. We apply this framework to study the performance of low-carbon portfolios in both the US and Chinese markets.
