A comprehensive, peer-reviewed collection of essays by leading academics and practitioners on modern portfolio construction rooted in the Markowitz mean-variance framework. Edited by John B. Guerard Jr., the volume explores theoretical advances and practical applications of Markowitz techniques in asset selection, risk modelling, multi-factor approaches, transaction cost incorporation, and performance measurement. It includes both foundational chapters on efficient diversification and state-of-the-art research on data mining, multi-factor risk models, global equity risk, and portfolio optimisation in volatile markets, making the book a key reference for scholars and investment professionals concerned with quantitative portfolio design and analysis.
