Abstract

A mean semi-absolute deviation model is proposed for portfolio rebalancing with transaction costs and taxes. Considering the existence of a minimal purchase unit of securities, a mixed integer linear programming model is proposed. Due to the high computational complexity of the model, a heuristic algorithm is proposed. An example is given to illustrate that the model and the heuristic algorithm can be used efficiently to solve portfolio rebalancing problem by using real data from the Shanghai Stock Exchange.
