  Methodology
48
  1. Basic Concepts
49
 
50
- Expected Return (μpμp​): The anticipated gain or loss from an investment, based on historical data or other factors.
51
- Risk (Variance (σp2σp2​)): A measure of the dispersion of returns. In portfolio optimization, we seek to minimize the variance of the portfolio returns.
52
-
53
- 2. Mathematical Formulation
54
-
55
- The basic idea is to find the optimal weights wiwi​ for each asset in the portfolio to maximize the expected portfolio return μpμp​ while minimizing the portfolio variance σp2σp2​. This can be expressed mathematically as:
56
-
57
- ```bash
58
- Maximize: μ_p = ∑(w_i * μ_i)
59
- Subject to: ∑w_i = 1
60
- Minimize: σ_p^2 = ∑(∑(w_i * w_j * σ_ij))
61
-
62
-
63
- where:
64
- NN is the number of assets in the portfolio.
65
- μiμi​ is the expected return of asset ii.
66
- σijσij​ is the covariance between the returns of assets ii and jj.

  3. Optimization Algorithm
69
 
70
  Our implementation utilizes the following steps:
71
-
72
- Input Data: Historical returns for each asset in the portfolio.
73
- Objective Function: Construct an objective function that combines the expected return and variance.
74
- Optimization Algorithm: We employ a mean-variance optimization algorithm that iteratively adjusts the weights to find the optimal combination.
75
- Convergence Criteria: The algorithm iterates over a specified number of iterations (e.g., 5000) or until convergence is achieved.
76
 
77
  4. Implementation
78
 
79
  In our project, we have implemented the Mean-Variance Portfolio Optimization method with 5000 iterations. The process involves:
80
-
81
- Input: Historical return data for each equity in the Indian market.
82
- Objective: Maximize expected return while minimizing portfolio variance.
83
- Optimization: Utilize an iterative approach, adjusting weights to find the optimal allocation.
84
- Output: The final set of weights that represent the optimal portfolio allocation.
